The President's quotes are pretty interesting, even after making the NCAA tournament it doesn't seem he's wildly pro athletics. It also seems like wtnh could use a new copy editor, there's a fair amount of typos, but that's neither here nor there.
“Obviously it has gotten out. The document you are holding is supposed to be confidential,” said university president Gregory Woodward.
News 8 asked Woodward about the study who said no decision has been made.
“Look at the University of Hartford, how many of our players go pro one or two a year that’s not our goal. We will do the right thing for this university and all of our 7,000 students,” said Woodward.
He said the school loses millions on athletics and that the NCAA tournament won’t change that
“Everyone thinks you make tournament, you hit the jackpot. We didn’t get a cent from the tournament and congratulations to our great kids but we are losing money doing this,” said Woodward. “I don’t think what the world understands is that everyone who plays Division One sports loses money, except for about 22 schools. There are about 350 schools in Division One, only 23 make money the rest of us lose.”
