Originally posted by Unregistered View PostAny idea how scholarships work with grad students? Exp. 5th year redshirt player using their last year of eligibility as a 1st year grad student or a player that graduates in 3 years and want to play their 4th year at the same school as a first year grad student?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostTufts is D3. No scholarships for any sport. Different campuses, environments, size, locations, competitive quality. What's the point of comparing the numbers from two different schools?
And does anyone think revenues and expenses just conveniently net out to zero?

Wasn’t that the article from the “Your Kid’s Not Going to Turn Pro” guy talking about how the D3 was recruiting his bench warming son? It was all about bolstering applications.
Like all business ventures, some fail. It was a business decision. NU just decided they didn’t want to make the sort of investment they were going to have to make in order to be competitive and to put its money elsewhere. Money doesn’t grow on trees and in the business of sports you have to make a serious investment in facilities and people to make money at it. Nick Saban doesn’t come cheap.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe point was to show the disparity between the levels. Some here think that a program like Tufts is on an equal footing with a program like HC. Nice little fantasy but there really is no comparison when one program spends almost 10x what the other spends. That just isn’t reality.

BTNT working hard again this morning. Same old, same old. Admonishing anyone who would value soccer in the decision making process unless you're "getting paid."
And no one ever said D3s spend anywhere close to the same as D1s, even lower level D1s. That said, Tufts would likely be 5-0-0 over the past five years if HC had been on the schedule (on the men's side).
