that those who complain about the academic side being impoverished while the athletic side prospers
One has nothing to do with the other, if anything athletics gives back to the academic side. The statement was nothing but another academic showing their penis envy of the money athletics gets/brings in.
If he wants to bitch at someone, bitch at the state government who has way too damn many 4 year schools for a state the size we have. Let the politicians close down some of them, but we all know that won't happen because that would be shutting down their little fiefdoms of patronage. I don't want to turn this into a political topic, but JBE is already giving reassurances none will be shutdown.
Places like SUNO are just stealing the publics money for the product they turn out, why not use those resources to bolster the flagship university?

It is a fricking University. Athletics wouldn't exist without the educational institution. It's supposed to be an extracurricular activity, but athletics are the tail wagging the dog. And some on the academic side resent that? I'm shocked, shocked.
