Athletics funding

Marty Meehan was on Channel 5 this weekend. As local media loves to do, they started with the "enrage the taxpayers" question about the cost of UM athletics.

I thought he handled it well. Was armed with facts, and seemed to quell it with revenue data.

He did awesome!!!!! Hope he stays forever. Ed Harding was giving him semi-softball questions and Marty gave a ringing endorsement of UMass sports.

Great job! The big game payouts and donors seems to quite the haters these days.
