I have no issue with CMU doing this. Are they knowingly breaking the rules? Yes. Are the rules reasonable under the current economic climate resulting from a mixture of global politics and government mandated shutdowns? No.

If it was simply a matter of CMU making poor financial decisions that led them to this point then I would see it differently.

But is CMU talking about dropping below the Division I standards for 2020-21, or permanently? Dropping a sport is usually a permanent decision.

It seems like they plan on bringing in another men's sport, probably one that comes with less cost but would prefer to do it after this season as all NCAA programs will likely be seeing major revenue losses this year at least. That's just reading the tea leaves.
