They advanced to the second round of the conference’s tournament before losing to UCLA, and earned a six seed in the NCAA Tournament’s west region.

The Pac-12’s most valuable basketball program, and the only on our list besides UCLA (No. 15), increased team revenue by more than $2 million year-over-year thanks in part to increased contributions.

UCLA, which is the only other Pac-12 school in the top 20, comes in at No. 15.

Coming in ahead of Arizona are Louisville, Kansas, North Carolina, Kentucky, Ohio State, Indiana and Wisconsin.
