A Message from theAthletics Directors

Texas, our Texas, is the state with the single star, a state of being and a state of mind.

We embrace the mystique that arises from its vast expanse of city and country, for all of it, the arid plains of the west to the

murky marshes of the east, the rolling prairies of the Panhandle to the balmy breezes of the Gulf, is bound together as the pride-

ful possession of its people.

The University of Texas is more than a doorstep to our state’s rich territory and passionate people. Because, simply, we are Texas.

We in Texas Athletics take that to heart. We strive to be the best in everything we do. Our record of success has no doubt been a

team effort, and without question, the generosity of Longhorn Foundation donors has supported the education and competitive

pursuits of our more than 500 student-athletes.

We want the best people, working in the best facilities, nurturing the best student-athletes in the nation. We put together this Texas

Athletics Report as an invitation for others to learn more about us, what motivates us and how we measure success.

As we like to say on the Forty Acres, it’s always a good time to be a Texas Longhorn. Our purpose is to uphold Texas’ inherent

standard for excellence while also prioritizing the health, well-being and development of the more than 500 student-athletes who

compete in our 20 varsity sports.

Through the winning tradition our sports teams have established on their respective playing fields, we have been able to grow

our department into one of the country’s premier intercollegiate athletics programs. That development has been a slow and

steady march, and as you navigate through this report, we hope you’ll soon understand the vision, patience and diligence that

underscore our mission.

A Modern Era Success Story

UT Athletics supports approximately 525 men and women student-athletes

in a successful and broad-based NCAA Division I intercollegiate program,

and employs more than 300 full-time staff members. Baseball was the first

intercollegiate sport to begin competition at UT, and the Longhorns played

their first season in 1896. Since then, all University of Texas sports programs

have combined to win 50 national championships.

UT Athletics has historically been committed to gender equity in its programs since

Title IX was legislated in 1972. Today, UT is the only school nationally to source and

define a women’s athletics department with a women’s athletics director, and UT con-

tinues its commitment to the 1993 Title IX settlement order, in terms of ratio of male-

female participants and male-female scholarship offerings. This settlement resulted in

the addition of three women’s sports — soccer, softball and rowing — between 1993

and 1997, infusing 150 additional participants to the program. UT President’s office

discretionary funds historically were used to fund women’s athletics from 1973-2003.

These subsidies supporting UT women’s athletics were fully phased out following the

2003-04 academic/fiscal year. Since that time, Intercollegiate Athletics has received no

financial support from The University.

Doing it the Right WayUT Athletics operates with integrity and is dedicated to enforcing adherence to the rules

and regulations of the NCAA, the Big 12 Conference and The University of Texas. The

UT Athletics Risk Management and Compliance Services staff supports and educates

student-athletes, coaches, staff and supporters to make the right decisions and comply

with NCAA and Big 12 rules. Staff risk managers review and monitor all everyday

operations to mitigate risks, protect assets, and sustain the reputation. They also assess

operations for optimal efficiency and effectiveness, and to reduce the costs of doing

business.

Men’s GolfThe Longhorns claimed UT’s first men’s golf

national championship since 1972. Dylan Frittelli’s

dramatic 30-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole of his

match lifted UT to a 3-2 victory over Alabama at

Riviera Golf Club in Pacific Palisades, California.

The national title capped a dominant 2011-12 for

the Longhorns, who won eight team titles. Head

coach John Fields and the Longhorns held the No.

1 national ranking for all but two weeks of the sea-

son and boasted two of the top three players in the

country in Jordan Spieth (No. 2) and Frittelli (No.

3). Fields was also named the Golfweek and NCAA

Division I National Coach of the Year.

Women’s Volleyball The Texas Volleyball team earned a decisive 3-0

sweep against the Oregon Ducks on Dec. 15 at the

KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky., to earn the

program’s third National Championship and second

NCAA title. It was the Longhorns’ first national title

since 1988. This season marked UT’s fourth trip to

the NCAA Tournament final four in the past five

years. Khat Bell, Haley Eckerman, Sha’Dare McNeal

and Bailey Webster earned AVCA All-America hon-

ors, while head coach Jerritt Elliott was named the

2012 AVCA Division I National Coach of the Year,

his first national honor while coaching at Texas.

cluding six gold, during the 2012 London Olympics. If these athletes were competing as

a separate country, Texas would have ranked in a tie for 13th place among all nations in

the number of gold medals earned and tied for 18th in the number of total medals won.

A total of 21 current or former University of Texas student-athletes and three current

Men’s Athletics Hall of HonorFounded in 1957, the Longhorn Hall of

Honor is one of the most cherished ath-

letics traditions at The University of Texas.

Inductees become part of a distinguished

circle of individuals who have made a

distinct and lasting contribution to The

University of Texas.

The Longhorn Hall of Honor Council is made up exclusively of men who

have lettered at UT, and the council oversees the lettermen’s vote and

annual induction activities.

Each year a selection committee nominates 16 candidates, whose names

are distributed to the Hall of Honor Council. The four nominees receiv-

ing a majority of votes are then inducted into the Hall of Honor during a

ceremony in conjunction with a home Texas Football weekend.

The T-AssociationUT Athletics founded the T-Association to honor former varsity

letterwinners, preserve their legacy and enhance the future for other

Longhorns. Student-athletes become a part of the T-Association as

soon as they earn their first ‘Varsity T’ letter award, and start enjoy-

ing the benefits as soon as eligibility is completed.

Women’s Athletics Hall of HonorThe UT Women’s Athletics Hall of Honor was created in 2000,

and enshrinement into the hall is considered the highest honor

bestowed by the women’s athletics department.

The selection committee is chaired by Jim Deitrick and considers

both a candidate’s contribution to the UT Athletics program and

the candidate’s contributions to his/her community.

Nomination criteria for a former student-athlete is as follows:

1.) Must have been out of collegiate competition for a minimum of five years;

2.) Must have competed a minimum of two years at Texas, must have completed her

collegiate eligibility at Texas, and must have been awarded a varsity letter;

3.) Must have been recognized for outstanding athletic achievement;

4.) Must have graduated or ended her UT Athletics career in good academic standing; and

5.) Must have exhibited exemplary standards of conduct during competition.

Nomination for a coach or administrator is as follows:

1.) Must have provided outstanding service to the UT Women's Athletics program; and

2.) Must have exhibited exemplary standards of conduct during competition.

Developing Well-Rounded Students

UT Athletics Student Services exists to help student-athletes manage their busy college careers

through individualized academic support programs, an involved and dedicated staff — including

counselors, mentors and tutors — and through special life skills programs developed at The University.

The aim is to help student-athletes succeed in the classroom, in their sport and in their overall life experience

at Texas and beyond. The academic services staff not only supplements the existing resources on campus, but

by meeting with each student-athlete individually, counselors are able to meet their students’ specific needs and

help them become all-around winners — academically, socially and athletically.

The academic services staff guides student-athletes in following the UT Honor Code, which professes that the

core values of The University are learning, discovery, freedom, leadership, individual opportunity and respon-

sibility. Each member of The University is expected to uphold these values through integrity, honesty, trust,

fairness and respect toward peers and community.

Academic FacilitiesAcademic Services, for men’s and women’s basketball and all Olympic sports, is housed in an updated

facility located in the Red McCombs Red Zone at the north end of Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial

Stadium. At the Moncrief-Bible Academic Center, students have access to their counselors, mentors and

tutors, as well as numerous technologically-equipped study rooms, conference and media centers. Student-

athletes also enjoy an academic library that houses books from their specific courses and other reference

literature to suit their needs. The goal is to make the student-athlete’s learning environment as comfortable

and inviting as possible, and our academic center provides that unlike any other.

Texas’ first-class football academic center is among the highlights in the Moncrief-Neuhaus Athletic Center.

The 2,500-square-foot facility provides the finest environment for each and every athlete to prepare for

efforts in the classroom. The academic center houses office space for two full-time academic counselors,

four tutor rooms, numerous meeting rooms and a multi-purpose study hall facility that seats more than

150 student-athletes. It also features 36 individual computer workstations with Internet access.

Serving the CommunityHorns for Hope is the umbrella moniker for all community enrichment activities supported by UT Athletics.

Among these activities are university initiatives such as Orange Santa and Longhorn Halloween, hospital visits

by student-athletes and the use of athletics events in order to collect canned foods and school supplies,

demonstrate appreciation for service men and women and raise breast cancer awareness.

The Neighborhood Longhorns Program (NLP) is an educational incentive program operated by The

University of Texas in partnership with the Austin Independent School District. The NLP uses support

mechanisms that encourage and value elementary and middle school students’ personal development and

inspire their desire to pursue higher learning through exposure to the college experience. Since its inception,

NLP has awarded more than $500,000 in scholarships to participants who have excelled in reading programs

and in classrooms. UT Athletics is committed to enriching the NLP in numerous ways and through a variety

of programs.

UT’s 20 sports programs work with the Academic Services staff to coordinate activities with clubs and orga-

nizations throughout the community. For example, every Friday before home football games, members of the

football team visit the Dell Children’s Hospital.14 15

Managing the Physical Well-Being of World-Class AthletesEnsuring the health and safety of every male and female student-athlete in UT’s 20

sports is the charge of the Sports Medicine/Athletic Training program. The full-time

staff consists of certified athletic trainers, physical therapists and physicians, each with

varying levels of expertise and specialty certifications. More than 250 years of experi-

ence in managing the health care needs of intercollegiate student-athletes is represented

on the staff. The main Sports Medicine facility — the James R. “Bubba” Moffett Athlet-

ic Training Room — is housed in Moncrief-Neuhaus Athletic Center and furnished with

state-of-the-art therapeutic modalities and exercise/rehabilitation equipment. Recent

additions include the Alec Beck Hydrotherapy Room and the new Howard L. Terry

Medical Suite. The Terry Medical Suite allows physicians to provide comprehensive

medical care, including onsite radiology, fluoroscopy, and laboratory services to student-

athletes. This facility and the various other athletic training satellite facilities on campus

are equipped with innovative resources to meet the needs of student-athletes.

The challenge of preventing illnesses and injuries, and returning injured student-athletes

to the playing field as quickly and safely as possible, requires a team effort. The Sports

Medicine/Athletic Training program consists of a team of recognized experts from

various fields — including orthopedics, sports nutrition, chiropractic, massage therapy,

and dentists — who are highly skilled and have expertise in managing issues unique to

intercollegiate athletics.

Big 12 ConferenceTexas has been a committed member of the Big 12 Conference from its inception, and since

the league began competition in 1996-97, conference teams boast more than 40 national

championships and more than 470 individuals have claimed NCAA crowns.

Bob Bowlsby is now the conference’s fourth commissioner, and he previously spent six years as

the athletics director at Stanford University. TCU and West Virginia became the first additions

since the conference’s inception when they joined the league in July 2012.

With 10 members, the Big 12 remains as the only major conference in the nation to determine its

champions in all sports directly on the field of play with a full round-robin schedule.

The Big 12 Conference routinely produces some of the best competitions in the nation. Big

12 teams have made seven appearances in the BCS National Championship game, and league

squads have combined to lead the nation in women’s basketball attendance each of the past 13

seasons. In men’s basketball, the league has had two teams in the regional finals in four of the

past five seasons.

According to Forbes, the Big 12 generates more than $26 million per member institution from

bowls, tournaments and TV rights – the most of any conference.

Competitive excellence, scholarship and sportsmanship are all equal parts of the Big 12 philoso-

phy. In its history, the Big 12 has produced 530 Academic All-American recipients, averaging

more than 30 each season. In addition, institutions can nominate student-athletes for the Dr.

Prentice Gautt Postgraduate Scholarship, and 293 scholars — including more than 20 from UT —

have received more than $2 million in postgraduate financial aid.

UT ATHLeTICS TIMeLINe

State-of-the-Art Facilities

Since 1993-94, UT Athletics has invested more than $450 million in facility con-

struction, renovation and capital expenditures. These facility investments have been

funded by revenue bonds, private donations, athletics operating funds and reserves.

Annual debt service payments to retire revenue bond indebtedness are funded through

incremental UT Athletics revenue generated from leasing gameday premium seats (suites,

club seats). These premium areas are a result of facility construction, renovation and

expansion, and the revenue generated from these facilities ultimately is greater than the

initial investment of construction.

For instance, in 2011-12, UT Athletics generated $28 million from a $17 million construction

investment, resulting in $11 million net revenue.

for volleyball practice and competition in Gregory Gym.

Giving Back Positive Impact on the Forty Acres

UT Athletics values its position on The University of Texas campus and aims to be forward-

thinking in its efforts to be good partners in the academic setting.

In the 2011-12 academic/fiscal year, more than $5.4 million in Trademark Licensing revenue and

athletics reserves was transferred by UT Athletics to UT Central administration to fund

various academic initiatives. Since 2006-07, UT Athletics has transferred about $20 million to

The University for various academic programs and initiatives.

UT Athletics has transferred 8,300 square feet in office/meeting space to The University since

2010, and in 2012 an additional 22,690 square feet was turned over for campus use. The

University’s projected savings are more than $13 million in construction costs (approximating

$428 per square feet).

Historically, UT Athletics has made annual monetary gifts to the UT libraries in an effort to

support students and their studies. But beginning in 2013, instead of basing contributions on UT

Club revenue, UT Athletics plans a fixed gift with an escalator increase each year. These contri-

butions helped Student Government secure permanent funding to operate the Perry-Castañeda

Library (PCL) 24 hours a day, five days a week.

In addition, UT Athletics pays its own direct costs such as salaries, fringe benefits, utilities

and construction. The exception is the cost of certain central administrative services such as

accounting, systems and payroll, which are charged to every auxiliary unit in the form of a

3.25 percent administrative fee on specified expenditures.

The Longhorn Foundation

Investing in the future of a student-athlete at The University of Texas symbolizes a com-

mitment to ensuring that The University continues to be one of the premier academic

and athletic institutions in the nation. Financial gifts to The Longhorn Foundation are

ultimately an investment in young people whose talent, determination and dedication

allow them to be ambassadors of today and leaders for tomorrow.

As a self-supporting UT auxiliary, UT Athletics receives no state funds. As such, the suc-

cess of UT Athletics can be attributed in large part to our more than 13,000 donors.

Revenue & expensesOverall budget for athletics is $161.9 million, including:

• $139.1millionforAthleticsOperations

Trademark LicensingTexas Longhorns fans and their coast-to-coast support annually push UT to a “national

championship” in Trademark Licensing. For seven-straight years, in fact, UT has been

the top seller of licensed collegiate merchandise, according to rankings by the Collegiate

Licensing Company (CLC).

Trademark Licensing transfers a share of its revenue to the central administration to

fund various academic initiatives. Trademark Licensing also administers services for

UT-San Antonio, UT-Arlington, UT-El Paso, and other UT System components.

Revenue from Trademark Licensing is generated through royalty payments and the sale of

licensed consumer goods that bear UT logos and word marks. The Longhorns silhouette

is iconic. Products associated with UT include apparel, jewelry, housewares and souvenirs.

About 70 percent of trademark income is derived through apparel sales.

In June 1998, UT and the UT System put Trademark Licensing under professional

management by CLC to enhance revenue and marketing opportunities. At that time, the

Trademark Licensing operation was placed under the management of the vice president

for legal affairs and institutional relations. UT Athletics played an integral role in

managing those relations, and in 2007-08, Trademark Licensing was transferred to

management by UT Athletics.

Trademark Licensing revenues, net of management fees, in the 2011-12 academic/fiscal

year were $8.3 million.

Longhorn NetworkIn January 2011, The University of Texas, IMG College and world-wide sports leader

ESPN announced a ground-breaking agreement for a television network exclusively

dedicated to UT and UT sports coverage.

Longhorn Network (LHN) launched on Friday, Aug. 26, 2011 with a live, two-hour

special broadcast from The University’s South Mall.

ESPN has a 20-year agreement to own and operate Longhorn Network, a year-round,

24-hour network dedicated to all things University of Texas. LHN offers a variety of

content, highlighted by more than 200 exclusive events annually from 20 varsity UT

sports, original series and studio shows, historical programming and academic and

cultural happenings.

At a time of reduced state funding for higher education and campus budget cuts, the net-

work venture will generate about $5 million a year for at least the first five years.

“Ten or 15 years down the road, The University should see great dividends from this,”

Men’s Athletics Director DeLoss Dodds said.
