First off, I work at a University. Second, I know and work with people in the Athletic Department so I know how it works. You on the other hand are making claims about it being a "myth" when it is in fact a reality. Where is YOUR proof that it's a myth?

Also, if it goes in the red for so long without another program carrying it, chances are it'll be shutdown.
