This is beyond repair. The legacy of Gene Bartow just died.

I know for a fact that we have looked into financial implications of a move to non-scholarship Division III.
As I said in another thread. It's not just three sports getting disbanded, just three being disbanded today.

I really hope a member of the media asks Watts the questions about how he plans to stay D1 with only 5 men's teams.

This question is not getting asked. Whether we stay C-USA is moot if we aren't D-I. I wished he would have gotten pressed on this.

We will be Division None in 5 years. All athletics will be gone by then if the BOT isn't wiped off the face of the earth.

Agree with GN, but in the interim, it looks like we're adding men's cross-country and track.
