It doesn't matter if it loses money, Title IX makes sure that the same amount of money is spent on womens athletics as mens.

To me, its not a boring product. Ive enjoyed the Lady Aggie games through the tourney more than any of the mens games. However, the announcers and play by play personal are killing me. I know they are women, not bashing that. They just suck at play by play and color commentary.
