Cutting costs so the school can give Green Bay what it always wanted: a football team

Whole staff jettisoned, 6 years of HC bought out, and the AD isn’t talking. No press release either.

Buyout isn't as high as you'd think.

Kevin had an out-of-date version. This guy obtained the current contract:
I know who this guy is beyond twitter, and he often has the scoop on UWM stuff, but he’s hit-or-miss on non-UWM stuff:

I'd guess that UW-GB will be moving down to join the rest of the little UW's in D3...

Wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility.
They rent the Resch Center, the county arena a block from Lambeau Field. It is located on the opposite side of town from the campus. They have a small arena on campus that would work for D-III.

Unless they fired him for cause, looks like he's getting all that remaining money.

I can see UWGB looking at moving down. It's what Birmingham-Southern did to get football. Maybe UWGB administration and students want to do the same.

UWGB usually get much more out off mbb and why than what their larger conference opponents do.
Expect they have indentified a DI coach that can be had for cheap.
Expect UW Eau Claire to DII's and the GLIAC as their building a new hockey arena. Eau Claire has been the strong hockey area.

It's a small school. From Equity in Athletics
Number of Full-time Undergraduates: 4,816 (note: far less than the 6,830 they advertise)
Men: 1,856
Women: 2,960
That size works fine in D1 for a private school with a massive endowment and high residential rate, but that is hard for a public school.
I would have asked the coach if he is willing to coach D-III. Almost certainly he'd say no, and leave on his own. Of course maybe this is like a business world layoff, you just can everyone you want to get out the door, take a one time write off, and then start operating at the new lower budget level. D-II schools operate on average about 25-30% the budget of D-I and that mostly comes from lower salaries. D-III schools operate at 25-30% the level of D-II.
A D-II drop down would shrink the budget from just above $10m to $3m, and to D-III to about $1.2m.
This is surprising to say the least. We may see more of this as schools reevaluate their athletics in wake of the economic crisis.

Their enrollment and profile is more in line with their sister schools in the D-III Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Couple that with dwindling attendance (around 2,000 in a 10,000 seat arena), and the university may have decided that it's not worth it to be a D-I mid-major.

RE: Green Bay fires coach signed thru 2026
So adding PUFW got the HL to 10 when they were added for next year.
The GLIAC seems to want more Wisco teams., as its essentially a hockey DI LEAGUE at DI in the new CCHA.
Green Bay already has the USHL's Gamblers, which draw at least 3300.
Might be a scheme to add hockey and add revenue but reduce costs.
