Sort of.
Tuition at UC has basically been the same throughout this whole period. They haven't really raised it except for a rather minuscule amount, so they'd be paying the same amount whether that money was going to athletics or not. The real question is where was that money going before it went to athletics, and what (if anything) is being done to supplement that??"You can't fix stupid." Ron White

One student was quoted as saying “It's unfair to students who don’t go to these sporting events,” Dirr said. “Half of this money is probably going towards luxury items that athletes don’t necessarily need, such as alternate uniforms and warmups.”
I always thought uniforms and warmups were paid for my the shoe / apparel company whose name was on them, i.e. Nike, Adidas, etc. Maybe that’s only for FB and BB?

Hmm, really?? That's strange then, it's kind of amazing that these universities can hide these fees and figures throughout various places, that does make me very curious about where it was if the tuition is relatively the same.. I wonder if someone prods along and finds out.

Their subsidies will start to increase soon. UConn, UC and USF have all been receiving money from the Big East split and that pot dries up this year or next year.

Exactly. It's about to get a lot worse.
I believe they made a colossal mistake renovating Nippert the way they did. It's a moot point now, with respect to positioning a program for a P5 invite, but dumping over $70mm into a stadium renovation and coming away with just over 40k seats afterwards is a road to hell as far as the big boys are concerned.
Now they're putting money into 5/3. No doubt it needed a major overhaul, but it's another big number to put onto a highly stressed financial situation.
And then there are all the "quiet" cuts happening on the academic side.
It's not a good luck. And there is no good fix in sight.X A V I E R
