This is why I mentioned they very well could have a plan in place.. conveniently going through each men’s team sport option and the reported cost as mentioned in the 2019 EADA. A plan we didn’t get to hear. I’m not here to trash a department that has to look at all of their student athletes as a whole rather than just 28 of them. My knee jerk reaction was frustration.. but after having time to let it all sink in I can understand why it may need to be done. They were left with a crappy situation ever since Schumacher left to be frank. Dr. Hendricks barely said a word nor were any improvements done in her time. Dildy was in a no-win situation. Zorich didn’t really make any significant administration hires in his time. However, Charles has made SEVERAL hires to benefit the department for the future. To me— he’s more committed to having a D1 program than anyone else we’ve had in the last 5-6 years. I’m sure the athletic department is well aware of the requirements. But sometimes you have to make an unpopular and tough decision in order to provide a stable future. So before we jump to conclusions, which is so easy to do these days, let’s give this group the benefit of the doubt. We were prevented from hearing the presentation on athletics thanks to the interruptions in the call. For all we knew, the decision was made when Joslyn was let go. And with all the recent administrative hires, women’s basketball coach, and national search for a VB coach, I trust Charles and his team in making CSU a successful department.
