As of 8:10am this morning one of the finer programs in the country is lost due to "budgetary" problems.
No one saw it coming and they just recently signed some top level recruits that gave them one of the top 3 recruiting classes in the country.
I agree. It's very unfortunate. Can it really be cured with having more boys in sports though? Maybe a different focus is called for.
I see no problem with having the same number of male and female student athletes.
same male/female thing skews the men b/c of the amount of athletes on the football team. not all men play football.
it would be nice if the NCAA stepped in. clearly athletic departments are struggling to make ends meet, and the umbrella organization has taken a back seat while school after school picks on the same programs.
the whole world waits 4 years to watch track, swimming, gymnastics at the summer olympics. the world cup (soccer/futbol) is ginormous. why is the NCAA not taking advantage of the popularity of these sports to showcase developing talent?
