A rising tide lifts all boats.

From my perspective AD's push for more funding is so that VT can be competitive in all sports in a similar manner that we are accustomed to. So as we have more money our sports should stay funded the same or better. If things don't get worked out, some major things are likely on a chopping block to bolster revenue sports. I am hopeful that it will all work out, but I wouldn't expect any significant boon for Olympic sports. ** Edited by TheFacts at 8/21/2025, 8:02:51 AM
