At VT, approximately 39% of undergrad students use federal student loans
AirborneHokie96 • 08/20/25 05:08 PM ET

I think sports, broadly, are valuable. Football's value is the real problem
Synaesthesia • 08/20/25 08:18 PM ET
If VT alumni cared a lot about football, we wouldn't have such poor donor
AirborneHokie96 • 08/21/25 01:31 PM ET
Nah, that's letting the Hokie Club and Athletic Directors off the hook for

Smart on their part
AirborneHokie96 • 08/21/25 01:25 PM ET
MTSU is doing, imo, the best it can, in a variety of ways
saret • 08/21/25 01:51 PM ET
I do not disagree......
2hhoop3 • 08/20/25 07:05 PM ET
Something tells me no matter what happens there will be complainers here.

It's a true tax on students...many are paying for school with student loans
AirborneHokie96 • 08/20/25 02:21 PM ET
It's just putting bubble gum into the holes in the dam....

saret • 08/21/25 12:40 PM ET
the "industry"? I say fade out. It is absolutely obnoxious to tie higher ed
ModerateHokie • 08/20/25 10:29 AM ET
Agree
AirborneHokie96 • 08/20/25 12:31 PM ET
And that ain’t bad.

If you drop football, how do you pay for all the non-rev sports?**

There are a number of compounding factors at play here...
