Other than these?

That's very gloomy. However, it is hitting other schools too. Fortunately it looks like it is impacting us less than Towpath Community College. At least for now.

With the SEC and Big Ten off the schedule this team has a chance to go undefeated.

Anyone know if we'll think about adding games? Non conference games with Akron and Youngstown would make a lot of sense. No travel or hotels to worry about.

I hear Akron is likely losing their Clemson game too.

So you are suggested we play the Zips twice?

Yeah why not? Teams have scheduled conference opponents for non conference games in the past.

IMO all conferences will be going to conference only games. Get ready because the budget cuts are coming and it won't be pretty

I hear the cuts will come out this week. Looks like a cut in scholarship numbers for every sport. Plus, positions within the department.

Cut scholarships in every sport right before the start of the school year? How does that work? Kids going to find out with no notice that the scholarship they thought they had is gone?

Tuition due date has already passed so they would've collected the scholarship money already.

Seems pretty crappy. Also, interesting that Nuga isn't listed on the basketball roster anymore... Guessing we can take that as a sign that basketball lost 1.

And no Nalls, King or DiGuilio. Wasn't Nuga expected to play a major role?

It's definitely possible that it's just poor website management and he's not actually gone (same for the walk-ons).

RE: Kent State University to cut Budget 20% for 2021
Here's Allen Moff's latest budget update (behind the R-C paywall). He's done a good job of staying on the story in the face of non-great cooperation from the athletic department. He got this information through public information requests.

The summary is cuts include five assistant coaches, three in athletic advancement/Golden Flashes Club, one in athletic communications, one in facilities/operations, an administrative assistant and an account clerk. No specifics. The online department directory hasn't changed, so we can't figure out that way.

People will remain on the payroll through Dec. 4. At least one additional position has been eliminated since the records request was made, according to sources close to the KSU athletic program.

Cuts are supposed to save $800,000, maybe a fifth of the money they needed.

Here's the link. Story also will probably run in the Beacon. Since they're part of the same company, Allen's stuff has run in both papers. So you might find the link there within a day or so. (Beacon has a paywall, too, though. You usually get a couple of stories free.)

RE: Kent State University to cut Budget 20% for 2021
Was reading today CMU hired new Athletic Director base salary $225,000.00 a year. This is over $200,000.00 a year than our Kent State AD makes a year. Trying to figure out the proper sentence other than how did he pull off over $400,000.00 a year?
