At least in theory, Turley pays for himself because, if Turley were to leave, the football team would win fewer games and make less money. I don't know whether Fields medalists pay for themselves, but I would not be surprised if many science and engineering profs do pay for themselves via research grants and patents. The real question is how many poet laureates Stanford could hire instead of the gymnastics coach. Coaches in non-revenue sport and profs in the humanities and social sciences are the loss leaders.
