UMass has been able to offer 85 scholarships for football for many years. They have done so on more than one occasion before this season. There have been several years where they were not at 85 because of things like the previous 25 counter cap or the coach (namely Bell) being ill-prepared for the j...

UMass has had seasons prior to this one where they were fully scholarshipped. I'm not sure where the notion that this is the first time in 11 years that they have had 85 came from but that is not correct. Sometimes they may have lost someone mid-season or right before the start, but they have had 8...

It was already part of the season ticket package no matter where it was going to be played. Now it will just be your regular seats

The full schedule is not out yet but the women are traveling to Davidson next season

^ And probably (rather than maybe) Missou will cancel. Here's two of the many twitter posts in recent weeks: "A good question I would be asking more for Ryan Bamford is if Missouri has actually approached him about getting out of the road contest in Amherst in 2024. It's UMass' only P5 team at...

Club programs are not funded by the athletic department. No canaries, they two things aren't under the same umbrella

WBB's scholarship cap is 15, not 13. MBB's is 13

Even if UMass did add women's hockey (which I agree they should) it still wouldn't be a 1-for-1 add for more men's scholarships. UMass isn't 100% even in compliance for Title IX as it is. Adding WIH would be good, but cutting baseball and reallocating whatever scholarships they have (which is maybe ...

D2 is not an option for UMass. They're a D1 program, can't sponsor a varsity sport at a lower level. Dropping it entirely is the only way they could do it Lowell is having a tough year but at least their program is fully scholarshipped or probably close to it. UMass' is going to be operating with ze...

I got tied up with something and missed the Zoom call last night with the offensive coaches. Did anyone who attended learn anything interesting? Mostly coach speak on the call, even Casula said as much, but it was mostly everything you'd expect. Positive outlook on offensive players, new recruits, ...

OK we're done here

I hope UMass' athletic admin can find the stones to do what is necessary here. An irrelevant program for 2+ decades playing on the worst facilities at the school with zero scholarship support beyond this season. There is no reason to continue with such a scenario

The issue with baseball though is it isn't about "finding the money," they don't have available scholarships to give it with the way they prioritize men's sports and with Title IX compliance in mind There is no making it competitive again. The fact is they need to just drop it and move on...
