Damn we get to drop 2 as well - actually not as we need more female sports

It's 16 for FBS schools. Straight from the NCAA 2019-20 DIVISION I MANUAL: 20.9.9.1 Sports Sponsorship. [FBS] The institution shall sponsor a minimum of 16 varsity intercollegiate sports, including football...

What are the required Core AAC sports?

Could the AAC add men's soccer programs South Carolina and Kentucky, who currently both play in CUSA?

BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — Boise State University is eliminating baseball and its swimming and diving programs due to the coronavirus pandemic.

It will save the university $3 million.

Fake News.
The only reason anyone drops sports is because Mike Aresco personally vowed to screw over their school with a bad media deal which requires ESPN to burn down your existing production facilities after closing your sports.

I don't like it for Boise, I just remember all the MWC fanboys bagging on Cincinnati

Yeah, I was going for a mwc vibe

The amazing part is that Boise just brought back baseball this year after a 40 year absence.

BREAKING: Stanford, home to the most successful intercollegiate athletic program in the country, has eliminated varsity 11 teams because of coronavirus-related financial constraints.

men's and women's fencing, field hockey, lightweight rowing, men's rowing, co-ed and women's sailing, squash, synchronized swimming, men's volleyball and wrestling.

If Stanford is dropping sports, we're all ******.

they got a $28 billion endowment. they are just cutting dead wood under the cover of a pandemic. "NEVER LET A GOOD CRISIS GO TO WASTE"

100% Agree. Some of those sports budget's have to be zilch outside of a couple coaches and scholarships.

Seems like they have been ready for a change in direction to me. I am surprised by some of the sports they are tossing.

they actually f'd up Nippert and carved corners out of the stadium for minor leaguea soccer... so dumb.

Nippert is an awesome facility but I hated to see that.
