Someday, we really do have to ask ourselves WTF what we are doing allowing CFB to be the SOLE driver of intercollegiate athletics.
Maryland did the same thing in 2012.
More than six months after Maryland revealed plans to eliminate eight athletic programs as a way to overcome a multimillion-dollar deficit, Athletic Director Kevin Anderson officially announced Monday that seven of those teams were unable to raise the necessary money for survival.
Men’s and women’s swimming; men’s tennis; women’s water polo; acrobatics and tumbling (formerly known as competitive cheer); and two men’s track programs, cross-country and indoor track and field, were eliminated. Those programs did not show enough progress toward raising eight years’ worth of total costs by June 30.
True - However, the P-5 money is derived from football so it is a necessary evil for any institution that needs the $ to support non-revenue sports.
Temple is a "canary in the coal mine" regarding the horrid AAC. It serves as an illustration of what will eventually befall all AAC members because of woeful TV revenue.
UConn will be supported for a few years by the state, but eventually it will suffer budget shortfalls that won't be covered. I know this should probably be on the CR board because of the subject matter, but it is relevant on the football board too. More than ever - get us out of the AAC!

Crew created college athletics.Most of those sports are WTF sports. Men's Gymnastics, Crew. Who cares. Sucks that they are cutting baseball. Surprised Cosby couldn't save track and field.
