The 2026 Transfer Portal

if we drop down our budget will too. A10 has a pretty decent media deal, and the units we get from other teams making and winning games in the tournament help out as well. If we drop down I’d expect our budget to drop 30-40% within a couple years, we couldn’t sustain this type of spending in a lesser league.
Missing the point. If the NCAA splits into "pay to play" and "not doing it" levels. The teams in the "not doing it" level won't need to spend like they do today. Since we obviously can't run with the big spending dogs, we should consider being a big dog in the lesser level. I could see us being a great "get" for the top rated league in the lesser level. Just being realistic. The posts here talking about us suddenly creating a plie if money to give the Bball program are pipe dreams.

Not sure I agree with you, but yeah, I'm not giving another dime except to the History Department.

As someone in academia who sees bigger and bigger piles of cash going to sports and more and more money leaving academic programs, thank you for actually shifting money to academics and not just disengaging.

Yes, we can argue all we want about whether sports is the front, side, or back door of a school. But bottom line, it's about the degree. I don't have a problem giving young people scholarships. They have to pull double duty to be good in their sport and the classroom. But paying them beyond that? Sorry. Not with my money.

I haven’t seen anyone seriously discussing this being a possibility at the NCAA level.

This one depresses me the most for some reason. His ability to never get sped up, make good decisions, get to the rim and not turn it over were unique. We'll replace him but he'd have been a nice piece to build around.
Really surprising he would leave Tony for a lateralish move. Must have just been too much money to say no.
