Have been thinking the same thing for a while now.

Love Sherry I truly do but the game has changed and she has not adjusted.

:ez-laugh: Sorry, Ollie. Guess I was thinking that two such deep thinkers were enough for any board.

Sniff, sniff... It's OK Scrybe. I'll be alright in a minute.

Sadly I'm starting to believe the powers up don't care one bit about how many wins WBB gets..All they care is how much money Coale can get from donors and such. Once that dries up and it will, Coale will be gone

I cannot find current data for revenue/expenses for WBB but as late as 2011 WBB expenses were 4 times as great as revenues ($2.8 million deficit). However it is reasonable to assume with perfomance and attendance declining for the last 5 years as well TV appearances that in absolute dollars the WBB deficit is probably greater today than it was in 2011

I am sure Sherri does have a very positive impact on securing donor dollars but losing more money (estimated $3.0-3.5 million annually) than any athletic program in an athletic department that must operate in the black is not a positive. That is not good.

With the present performance trend of the WBB program it is likely that the revenue deficit is going to continue to increase.
