"The NCAA estimates that less than 10 percent of baseball programs nationally turn a profit, said Ron Prettyman, managing director of championships and alliances who oversees baseball. The number is probably closer to 5 percent, Prettyman said."

Believe what you want.

There are 299 D1 baseball programs. 10% would be 29 programs. There are 14 programs in SEC alone and hard to imagine they aren’t all turning a profit. If you have never attended an SEC baseball game you have to see it to believe it. I haven’t read the article but logic would say that 10% is believable.
