Is this including increased revenue from alumni? Or rather, how much it would decrease if the sports teams were removed? I'm not sure if this is actually something that would happen, but it seems like it could be.

While it's unclear where removing the sports team would work (one would probably have to look at universities outside of US, which more often don't have large athletic programs), this research found no correlation between team performance and alumni donation volume. http://www.news.cornell.edu/stories/2004/09/surprise-winning-teams-rarely-attract-more-alumni-gifts http://www.news.cornell.edu/stories/2004/09/surprise-winning...
