THE FUTURE OF COLLEGE ATHLETICS?​

Having read the attached article, I wouldn't be surprised if many universities eliminate non-revenue generating sports. The unintended consequence may be a massive loss of education opportunities for athletes of the so called "olympic sports".

A future where university scholarships and pay exist for a maximum of 2 male sports and 2 female sports. The remaining sports would exist as Club teams with a combination of financial aid and scholarships.

The NCAA needs to figure this out quickly!

Gut-wrenching choices, Title IX complications face college athletics in wake of House v. NCAA settlement

For 100 years, athletic departments have operated as 24-hour ATMs, and for every dollar earned, they spent

I’m not at all persuaded that football schools will be more advantaged than today. Most money will go to football and title 9 issues are huge.

The USA Olympic team essentially always had their "free" training programs , which was the university teams. If that is lost then it will will be a loss for sports in general, as well as the growth benefits every student athlete received from being a part of a team.

Former UL and Rutgers AD Julie Hermann had a quote (before she added to the long list of embarrassments by RU sports) saying that the graduating football and basketball players never donate back to the university but it's the swimmers, lacrosse , tennis and golfers that do. She argued that dropping the non revenue generating sports would adversely affect future donations.
