XC- with all due respect I believe that college athletics are big business (at least at most major universities) and wins and losses do indeed count. You might want to ask Chad M. about that.
I suspect our loss of revenue (season tickets, ticket sales, refreshments etc.) last year and this is pretty substantial when compared with the LB era. Less revenue effects the bottom line just as much as expenses do. In addition, I expect that tankovich's contract had an offsetting revenue clause so his buyout would not have been close to the amount often quoted. Anyway, that is all water under the bridge. If a change is not made at the end of this year I suspect this program will continue to sink further and Moody will be like a graveyard.
At least there is hope for the fball program.
