The Sicatoka Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 Quote "The excess revenue from these two programs [football and men's basketball] effectively offset the roughly $40 million annually the other 19 programs collectively run in losses each year," Byrne told the panel led by Texas senator Ted Cruz. "If it weren't for football, we would not have 21 sports at the University of Alabama." Alabama Football -- cash cow say: MOO! Alabama Mens Basketballl -- cash cow say: moo.

The Sicatoka Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 I won't be surprised when the influx of money drives the NCAA to a "play what you can afford" model where even 'bama drops ten or more sports. Seems counter-intuitive, but where we're heading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yote 53 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I think the direction we are headed is towards a club sports model. Frankly, that might not be the worst thing either. I look at the what the ACHA has done for college hockey and think if NCAA D1 hockey went away, and all collegiate hockey followed the ACHA model (with some tweaks), college hockey would explode across the country and become much, much bigger when freed from the restraints of Title 9. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think hope congress will eventually act if needed. They don't do anything ahead of time - just look at the budget for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may be interested in ditching UT again. Grab them and the golden domers and Big 10 supremacy is established. They then pick the carcasses of what's left (some ACC teams and a couple other SEC schools ans possibly Kansas) and a national college league is born.

The Sicatoka Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 From O -> N ? Cutting programs? Merging campuses? Nebraska university leaders ponder bold changes to compete https://omaha.com/news/state-regional/education/cutting-programs-merging-campuses-nebraska-university-leaders-ponder-bold-changes-to-compete/article_35dabe3a-f435-11ee-bb4b-5360b0e1ccb1.html Quote Is it perhaps time, Carter asked, to bring all the university’s campuses under the flagship campus’ well-known brand? All four NU campuses would adopt and align under UNL’s signature block “N” as part of their identity. “We should carefully consider whether now is the time for a unified University of Nebraska identity — a strategy that, if executed well, would increase the value proposition for all our campuses,” Carter wrote. Quote ... the potential for landscape-altering change — from elimination of programs to realigned or even merged campuses — remains on the table at the University of Nebraska. The drive springs from rising concerns that in a fast-changing higher education world, and at a time of declining national enrollments, Nebraska and its university could be left behind.

The Sicatoka Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 I still see the $58M shortfall at UNL as the elephant in the room. And if they're just realizing the "enrollment cliff" looming they're in deep kimchi. (fail to plan = plan to fail) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIOUXFAN97 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 hockey is probably the only sport that doesn't overlap with the main campus..............would they ever have the balls to shutter every sport at omaha branch other than hockey and just ask/say that the mavs are the huskers and see if big10 would accept that? would save a ton and having the goofs and those stinkin' badgers coming to omaha/nebraska would be a huge huge get obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With generally declining enrollment, the financial black hole of most college sports, the NIL mess, and the portal, the next decade will be interesting for sure.

fightingsioux4life Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Allow each major city to have a 4 year liberal arts school: UND (Grand Forks) NDSU (Fargo) BSU (Bismarck) MSU (Minot) Everything else either goes away or is affiliated with one of the four schools above. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kab Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 I’ve been saying for years there should be 2 universities the rest be 4 year colleges or city 2 year schools. Williston started out as a city school ‘Minot was a teachers college good luck with anything like that with the politics involved ‘get your degree at Minot state and transfer to one of the universities for masters or doctorates. have a higher gpa entrance standard for the 2 universities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
