Yeah... Passing on tens of millions in increased annual revenue doesn't benefit anyone you mentioned. 

 

Almost every P4 schools loses money with athletics. Given our history, do you believe we would be in the minority or majority?  I'm of the belief out administration would set records.....in losing money of course.

Because P4s are so insanely subsidized and for whatever reason feel the need to field every sport that exists. It would take YEARS for Akron to reach the athletic bloat of P4s, so in the meantime, an infusion of tens of millions in annual revenue would really solve our financial problems. 

 

This whole discussion is a dumb hypothetical anyways, but hypothetically declining tens of millions in revenue from the football/basketball media deal along is just stupid.

I'd just do the same thing I do now which is not watch Tuesday night football 😂
