Ranked 24th among 76 FBS programs in volleyball spending, Utah's $2.7M in FY2025 expenses surpasses the FBS average of $2.4M and reflects a steady climb from $1.5M in FY2021. Athletic student aid represents the program's single largest cost at $763K, while revenues of $886K — led by $212K in student fees — fall well short of covering operations. The resulting $1.8M deficit underscores the program's reliance on broader athletic department subsidies to sustain its competitive footprint in the Power Four landscape.
