In all due respect, that is a terrible idea. We are not going to compete with huge state schools or those in big metro areas with corporate sponsorship for players. No small private school can do that. We need to find a way to provide a competitive BB team for our students and fans to support on a realistic level. The day of Cinderella teams is over unless you are an Ivy. Forget the big arenas with fancy boxes. Forget the high priced coaches. The whole college sports business is out of control. Let the institutions who are willing to serve as satellites to the professional leagues do their thing. Just provide a venue for students to participate in sports and forget all that Big Dance BS. Go back to what the Ivies started years ago and let No Show Universities do whatever it is they are doing. I wouldn’t give a dime to keep some 20 year old from screwing up his life.
