Or or the partner sees that the AD of X-B1G school invested $___ in tutoring that does not improve the "brand" or generate any revenue?!

There is only so much money to be made from adding a few NASCAR patches to uniforms, painting a couple corporate logos on the fields/courts, and selling naming rights to parking lots and such. We won't even attempt to resolve the above issues related to water sports. At some point the PE people will want to chop expenses. Graduate assistants, lower level staffers, extensive support teams on the sidelines, the guys who mop the hoops court, the over paid officials (though, that may be warranted), etc., all got to go!

No more dedicated weight facilities/clubhouses. No athletic dorms. No wiffle ball fields and putt-putt. IT may have to give up the gaming consoles in each locker, the travesty of it all. All cut so PE can profit from a non- profit venture.
