The enrollment cliff. NIL. The portal.
It’s all colliding — and the stress at the mid-major level and below has never been greater.
Sports will be cut. DI schools will continue to drop levels.
ADs are battling with Presidents, Chancellors, and Legislators.
Coaches are taking subpar talent just to field a team.
Frustration is everywhere.
There’s plenty of blame to go around…
But the NCAA and four commissioners are holding up meaningful change. They might be right that congressional help is the only path forward for every level — but they better get it because the frustration is real, and it’s mounting.
So many talented, well-intentioned people in college athletics are feeling burn out.
Kind of a depressing post, but these topics keep coming up again and again in conversations the past few months.
