Today’s News-Gazette discusses how much debt UI Athletics is carrying. TV and gate income, gifting, and student fees are not enough to service its debt. Internal loans from the UI System ( at least one for 32.5 million) will be paid back in 13 years. And we are still pinching pennies to get that indoor performance center🤔

Just don't think about our small research budget of less than $50 million a few years ago dropping down to the low $30s recently also.
