To get out in front of revenue sharing, 2 dozen jobs are being eliminated.
And so it begins......
And so it begins......
Indiana cutting positions in the athletic department
- Thread starter Las Panteras
- Start date
adding 20m onto the annual budget is going to have repercussions.
but hey, a kid can run fast and is tall so he deserves to go to school for free while making 400k to do it. i mean, he's tall, and really really fast..

These athletic departments and football staffs are bloated because they have always had a $0 player payroll expense. When you add in the player payroll expense, you need to operate leaner. No more assistant to the assistant trainer. No more life skills staff. No more team of nutritionists. No more having 10 football analysts. These were nice to have but not really needed. Schools created these positions because they had the money to do so and it had to be spent on something.
The creme de la creme will continue to have many many analysts, many assistants, and many nutritionists. Don't kid yourself.
you mean like pitt's 4 asst Strength and conditioning coaches for football only? they actually have a sports dietitian for the cross country team lol..

Couldn't this apply to all pro sports too? Not following. If you feel this way, why watch sports at all. Or, any form of entertainment really.
Good grief!! Cutting 20 of these positions would be a breeze!you mean like pitt's 4 asst Strength and conditioning coaches for football only? they actually have a sports dietitian for the cross country team lol..

The entire sport and present system is headed for a reckoning. There are no guardrails on NIL whatsoever. For the most part only football and basketball programs are spending all the NIL money. There is massive inequality within athletic departments, it has deepened the whole caste system within athletics between revenue sports and the rest. It has turned 18-22 year old football and basketball players into a legion of greedy carpetbaggers holding programs and coaching staffs hostage for ransom. Honestly it's a joke.
Guardrails and oversight are needed badly, and they are coming, soon.

Oh no, you mean the status quo will have to change?
Most professional sports -
48-52% of revenue distributed to players
~10-15% to coaches and administrators
College Football -
~5% of revenue distributed to players (If you consider scholarships at 100% of their face value, which is also preposterous)
~15% to coaches
~40% to administrators
There are roughly 630 athletes at the University of Pittsburgh. That staff directory posted earlier has nearly 400 coaches and administrators.

You mean the part-time fellowship position that’s funded with a grant from Gatorade?you mean like pitt's 4 asst Strength and conditioning coaches for football only? they actually have a sports dietitian for the cross country team lol..

gatorade is funding 4 asst strength and conditioning coaches? of all the ridiculous and unnecessary jobs in our athletic dept, you only bring up that one?
I was talking about the track/XC position, which is a part-time grant funded fellowship position.
Football is and will continue to be the big sucking money sponge, whether here or Indiana. I’m sure if you asked every single P4 football coach, they’d all love to double their full-time S&C staff.
There goes the surprise. We always referred her as the Leather Lady. Still on the Mt. Wurshington cliff??
thanks Chagg, for the clarification. my intent wasnt to single out this position, just that these athletic depts seem extremely inflated.
it's tough to feel bad for these schools with the tight budgets who are begging their alumni to "give til it hurts" and then look at their staff roster and see soooo many people with silly job titles..
Can't imagine that two-dozen people amounted to a whole lot in dollars. Dozen of the jobs weren't even currently filled. Sounds like more of a PR story than anything real.
My D3 Alma Mater announced that it was entering a partnership with a firm that will work to get NIL deals for its athletes. It also now only allows its coaches to coach one team. It’s hired many strength and conditioning coaches. And it’s trying to raise $26 million to build a new field house because the current field house was built to accommodate 63 football players in the 80s. The team was expected to have 150 players on its roster this season.
The kids are the ones who should get paid, seeing as how they’re the reason the departments exist and this whole system generates money in the first place. Unless you would pay to watch Dabo and Duzz like… draw up plays on a whiteboard.
And at the same time, North Dakota State elected not to opt-in to the NCAA’s proposal revenue sharing model. Non-P4’s have the option to, so I’ll be interested to see what level of competition draws the line… maybe lower-tier G5 (MAC)?
This is what will happen. Also, shorter contracts. Every player is a free agent every year so coaches shouldn't need any type of rebuilding period. Win now. Win every year. Maybe we give you 1 bad year out of a bunch but there's no excuses. This applies more to basketball where you just need a couple good players and have the ability to defend and rebound.
Yeah it will be interesting how this effects these ridiculous HC contract extensions. "Cause they need stability for recruiting" BS.
well they are, and irrelevant and over bloated athletic depts are trimming the waste. so everyone is happy,
