the Moooooo needs to make up $1.6M in lost revenue, so........

[WVU82]

from Chuck's column... today


How is Marshall's athletic department going to cope with this? Cutting corners is one thing. But a decrease of this severity goes way past corners. Besides, the result of cutting corners is cutting quality.

That's what we're really looking at.

As far as salaries, Jack Bogaczyk recently retired from his duties in Marshall's Sports Information office, which included Director of Publications andHerdZone.comcolumnist.

Then, Carly Weisenbach announced Friday she was leaving as Marshall's Associate Director of Sports Information to accept a position at the University of Pittsburgh. Weisenbach was the sports information liaison for the MU men's basketball program.

Will either be replaced? Maybe not.

Rich Worner(UCF) left as Marshall's football equipment manager on Jan. 15 and still hasn't been replaced. Also, Tara Helton recently departed as Director of Academic Counseling in the Buck Harless student-athlete program.

There also isn't any chance to make up some of the revenue loss by selling beer next football season. The Board of Governors tabled that measure during a meeting last week.

Final analysis? It's very bad.

S U B S I D Y I N C R E A S E ... currently @ 43%

http://www.marshall.edu/2020/files/...tics-at-Marshall-University_April-13-2016.pdf

2015-2016
Self-Generated Dollars $15.4M (57%)
and
Institutional Support $11.8M (43%)
equals
Total Athletics Budget $27.2M (100%)

so, for 2016-2017, the Institutional Support will increase by at least $1.6M and Self-Generated Dollars will decrease by the same.

so, just using these numbers...
S-GD will become $13.8M
IS will become $13.4M
TAB...the same $27.2M

49.26%

the 49ers...

Ouch....Isn't looking good for the self-proclaimed flagship.

WVUs budget will increase this year by about 4 million.

The only flag in that ship is white.

Here's a link to the entire article which WVU82 summarized pretty accurately, but scroll down and read the comments. One comment even suggests that Marshall could have been the Boise State of the east......... . They never have been all that in anyones eyes but their own.http://www.herald-dispatch.com/spor...cle_7158cb9a-b237-5b4c-b14f-28dc6ed5e709.html

Boise State... the king of ...Idaho... lol

But according to Tony, WV will give them unlimited funding forever.

Like Tony Caridi said, 'Marshall is dying..' Dom Perignon taste, on a PBR budget. Difficult to do with virtually no fan base, no alumni support, and no national, regional, or state appeal.

This is the end... beautiful friend....This is the end, my only friend, the end....

Too bad ol' Jim is dead. He could sing that song at The Moan, sorta like John Denver did for Country Roads at Mountaineer Field.

I was there for the opening of Mountaineer Field when John Denver sang Country Roads. The last time I was there was last year at the Maryland game when Brad Paisley sang the same song. Good times.

So true. I told Tony it was delusional to think the state would continue to provide full funding for their turd of an athletic department. Maybe they could get a Doors cover band to play at the UL game.
