I don’t think we should cut any sports.

But we should only be spending NIL money where there will be a real talent and advertising ROI.

I love baseball, women’s lacrosse, and men’s wrestling and we should honor Title IX scholarship requirements.

But why give money to players who can’t help earn it back? I haven’t watched a women’s lacrosse game in YEARS and it’s our best program. No offense to them but the game bores me to tears and most fans - no need to waste NIL dollars there “just because”.
You know nothing about UCONN women’s basketball, it appears.

Among many other things. The women's lacrosse bashing is particularly amusing and utter nonsense. The overtime win against #1 NC was fabulous and enjoyed by many. But, who knows, maybe he doesn't have a t.v.

You’re comparing our women’s basketball program to UConn’s? 😂 I want some of what you’re smoking.

Anyway Geno even said in a recent interview that they’re not getting any NIL cash and he doesn’t expect that to change. They’re doing just fine.

Our basketball program is in the basement of the B1G and not getting out anytime soon. We shouldn’t waste a dollar there.

I saw it was on at one point and chose to watch more entertaining sports. Nice win by them. 🥱

Show me the ratings. Millions of people rarely watch our top two revenue sports. I doubt the WLAX program came anywhere close. It’s just not a fun watch.

You just don’t get it. There are women players who do well (by NIL) and people love them. It means something to fans. It’s not all just about men’s football and men’s basketball.

Yes the rare few who capture national attention, but people’s viewed are skewed by Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark. That won’t happen very often if ever again.

99% of sports fans have no clue who Veronica Burton is and she is our most famous WBB of all time, still in the WNBA.

Spending on that sport is a joke! They are boring to watch compared to men.

Exactly, he just doesn't get it. In 2025 2 of our women's reams won national championships. CMT was a walk on offensive lineman who warmed the bench for 1 year before quitting the team. Really, what can you expect from him.

You guys, he’s just stirring the pot.

Baz was closer to the truth (not me… The Objective Truth!) this season than you were. Are you happy with a losing record and Martinelli being relegated to the second team?

Ultimately you are what your record says you are.

Page bailed on the team in the BT tourney. Screw him if he leaves. We soldier on.

Even if he was, which is debatable, he did it in a pathetically immature manner.
