Not what you pay for each sport, what you pay for athletics in general, what you coaches make, nothing. When one single public institution joins, the entire conference has to declare these things.
The private schools can declare whatever they want. The same thing happened in the Old Big East.
I believe all schools technically have to report some figures in, to what degree of accuracy I cant say especially for the private schools but here is a neat place from the department of education.

Here is an example:
University of Louisville: Public School
Mens Basketball:
Total expense by team: $15,489,954
Total Revenues by Team:$42,434,684
Georgetown University: Private School
Mens Basketball:
Total Expenses by Team: $10,015,207
Total Revenues by Team: $10,015,207
DePaul University: Private School
Mens Basketball:
Total Expenses by Team: $6,657,771
Total Revenues by Team: $6,657,771
The accountants/AD's of Georgetown and DePaul need to run our country-they'd balance our budget in a few years.
