Here is my concern..
Approximate numbers for total UTAD budget, % of revenue
Football tickets...22%
TN Fund donation ...23%
SEC/NCAA distribution ( all football, MBB, etc)...30%

We just missed out on MBB tournament money.
With no games...no tv no advertisers pay.
..our donations are no longer tax deductible.

Folks are still on scholarship
Lot's of sports are an expense and not a revenue generator.
Yes the southwest corner of Neyland needs to be stabilized.

For your reading pleasure...the last issued Treasurer's Report on the UT System.

NOW
We are dependent on the other schools in the SEC with their state leadership and the other conferences and the NCAA...who all hold a stop/go sign as we try to come up with a way to play sports.

This is probably the toughest decision and a lot of the factors are moving constantly.
I envy no one on the decision....
And don’t point fingers.
We all want the same.
Nobody has ever thought this would come. So folks yapping you should have planned...sit down...

Solutions..how do we make it work...
