Just did a little research. UNC has the highest athletic budget in the ACC for FY 2012. (Information for the for private schools isn't public record, but it's safe to assume that Duke, Wake, BC, and Miami wouldn't be close.)
Of the eight public universities, FSU ranks sixth, and NC State is set to pass them in the next year or two based on the current trends of both schools. North Carolina currently has a budget 25% higher than FSU.
