Amen! Honestly do I want to support swimming, tennis, golf? No. Heck no. Those sports take the scraps that the mens basketball and football programs leave over. It's a pecking order. If you want any program to succeed football and basketball must succeed. Yeah, it sucks but you MUST feed the big fish here. Football first simply because 40k people show up to those games. I doubt 1.5k people show up to a swim match.
Then basketball because 7-10k people show up. And so on. Whatever sport is most visible is the one that must be invested into. The other sports wont ever generate the money. Unless michael Phelps went to GT and decided to promise 5million a year for life lol. Even then we would lie to him and put it into the football program! Haha
I think the swim team gets money from other sources, and I know the golf team does. Football, basketball, and baseball get more than the lion's share of our donations.
