Yes. Disaster, money pit, black hole, whatever. Discussion about semantics and hyperbole is pretty pointless.
Then thank goodness we don't have a college dancing program I guess.
Agreed. Again, I really do understand the purpose of Title IX and how it works. I referred to it my first post on this thread. Title IX compliance doesn't take away the facts about the numbers. Even if Women's Hockey wasn't a Title IX sport, it would still grossly operate in the red on the Pro Forma.
All I did was join the discussion on whether or not Women's Hockey is a "money pit". Some people don't want to hear it, but the fact is that it is right now. My understanding is that they take in less than half of the very little ticket revenue they generate and NONE of concession sales at REA.
Having said that, I really hope the program catches on and gets to the point when it's not a financial burden for the athletic department sooner rather than later.
