Finding paragraph #1

My first question was how much do colleges make of winning a national championship? Well i figured out the Texas winning the national championship was the biggest sports profit in college sports history. They had $87 million of revenue that came into the university of Texas and they had a overall $65 million profit after expenses. My second question was how much do colleges make off selling jerseys? Well I found out that there is a huge price difference if you are a huge sports fan and you want to pay $155 for replica jersey or if you are just a casual sports fan you can buy a regular jersey for $55. There was a case earlier this year with a college athlete named A.J. Green and he sold one of his game jerseys for $1000 and was suspended. If everyone is profiting from the sales of A.J. Green’s jerseys it must also profit the college that A.J. Green goes to, the University of Georgia.
