Not sure what you’re not understanding. Again, student athletes were not part of the discussion. It was students. There is a difference.

It only took 58+ years to be ebullient for the 1st time. At current pace of R&D growth.....this will likely be an annual ebulliency outbreak.
Just a decade away from passing half billion mark for R&D.

Don't stop getting your name out their because a certain demographic has their mind predetermined.
The Ivy league used athletics in the late 1800's and early 1900s to create awarness.
Nothing has changed, athletics is the only way you get name recognition which in turn makes selling a known entity, much much easier.

I didn’t say to stop. But marketing athletics to the upper echelons of academia has no bearing on their school(s) of choice. Everyone else. Sure.

UNO is less than $20M with Tech under $30M. And these are the number two and three in the ULS. UL is way ahead of everyone else.
