I have many friends that are ASU athletic supporters to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars through the Sol Devil foundation. The ones I have spoken to about swimming could care less about swimming or tennis, wrestling is another story (don't ask me why). All they care about is what Erickson is going to do next year in Pac-10 football and beating the U of A. It is sad, but it is still the fact.
They have also justified how they dropped the programs with no one knowing it was going to happen. They tell me it's business and they are somewhat right I guess. If they can justify the way Love handled the whole situation, that says something for the lack of support for anything but football at ASU. Basketball and baseball get a little attention when they do well, but fact is, the money could care less for ASU swimming.
