Ah yes, I forgot you have to play sports to attend college.

There would be a military waiver...however this is a straight 5 years window. I mean people here only care about hoops but look at the other sports this impacts.
College sports is for college age people. If they choose to do something else with their life in that time frame then that’s their choice. Oh well.

I’m not interested in watching 25 year olds or older play college athletics. Time for them to get a real job.

That is a discrimination statement

You must not be a big fan of college hockey

I didn’t think I would have to say this so plainly…. You’re allowed to attend college any time in your life you choose to..

Playing athletics is a privilege.. oof
This is one of the best moments i have witnessed live at a sport event

In what universe should a women’s BE team be making half of what the men earn?

Nobody watches that sh**!!!
I think these figures reflect what Villanova spent on operating expenses to run those programs. Most of the disparity you see here between men's and women's hoops is the coaches' salaries. This does not reflect roster payroll.

100%. Whatever our reported number is as well. Maybe $4 million. I’m sure includes all coaches, training and support staff along with player salaries

no way is that jus player salaries

Yes, this is just the creative way colleges report their operating expenses for each sport.

Seton Hall reports $28,718,708 in Revenue from all Sports, which matches to the dollar $28,718,708 spent on Expenses. These numbers don't include player salaries. Every individual sport reports Zero for profit/loss.

Seton Hall reported $9.3 M spent & earned on Men's Basketball.
They also show $1.1 M spent & earned on Women's Volleyball. I'm sure the volleyball team doesn't generate anywhere near $1.1 Miliion.

The athletic department could save 350k in the snap of the finger. Paying 500k to the head women's basketball coach is absurd. 150k seems fair.
