Regrettably, this is the other track we must pursue by performing our due diligence internally. As I’ve already shared with our coaches, student-athletes, faculty and university administration, all sports and non-sport programs are on the table for possible cuts or as a last resort even elimination from our slate of offerings. The only exceptions are football, men’s and women’s basketball, and volleyball. These sports are required by the NCAA to maintain our Division I standing and membership in the Pac-10 Conference. Additionally, football and men’s basketball represent our two major revenue-generating programs.
