Good questions. If there are 85 current scholarships, reduce the total number of players to around 60, no scholarships. Reducing the administrative staff will be a savings as it will involve the deprofessionalizarion of college athletics. There are millions of dollars spent on administrative staff that can easily be reduced. The money is all there, just not in the hands of those who need it. Do they really need as many assistant coaches as they have? The bloat in college athletics is enormous. Cap head coaches salaries. The elimination of spring practice and summer jobs lend themselves to more time for a part time job. Spring practice is a joke so use that time in a less joke like manner. If a kid is so poor that he needs a full time job to earn a living, that's where the needs based financial support comes in. The one thing we all have to keep in mind is playing college athletics just because you were good at sports in high school isn't a right. In addition, just because someone earns a masters degree in Sports Management doesn't give them a right to a job where the taxpayers support their desires. There is no magic pool of money.
