I am sure that there are programs that have figured it out, it's now 2024.
To add to my comment, it's more than likely that baseball programs don't turn a profit. I believe every sport in a school contributes to the annual fund and the Athletic Director awards each sports projected annual budget.

Exactly.

And it’s not like NIL money is coming from the universities…

It also makes no sense that college sports are expected to turn a profit. I mean, great if they do, but does the physics dept turn a profit? Is the undergraduate business school or fine arts dept expected to generate millions in income each year?

Esp if the players are expected to be students first, athletes second, measuring a college sport based on its ability to generate profits makes no sense.
