Spokane Indians owner wants WSU sports cuts
Rolo might not be getting a complete pass from legislature.
Looks like Senate Majority Leader Andy Billig is suggesting to the WSU Board of Regents do "drastic" and "extreme" cuts to WSU athletics.
Wonder if that means Rolo's salary (bring back Wulff?), drop to Big Sky (sure worked for Idaho)
Sure if UW has to do not only the same, but a same kind of ratio, proportional cuts, that would make UW just as bad in football as WSU, and if that made UW also have to join the MWC, Mountain West Conference.
Which wouldnt be the worst thing. Because WSU would DOMINATE the Mountain West, and BSU, WSU, UW would goto Bowl games, year in, year out, and WSU would goto a NY6 Bowl, every 2,3,4 years
And then after BYU, Rejoins the MWC, with WSU, UW, Ore St, BSU, Utah; Air Force, Wyoming, etc, and after Scott gets the Pac 12 drummed out of the P5 like the Big East Least, then the MWC, would take the Pac 12's place, as a P5 conference with some of the Leftovers from the Pac 12, USC, UCLA, Oregon, joining BYU, Utah, BSU, UW, Ore St, Air Force, Wyoming as the WEST Conference 14, replacing the Pac 12.
Otherwise the State Legislature can stay out of trying to run WSU, even if it means that they stop funding WSU.
Seriously tho the state funds UW as well, why is no one talking about forcing UW to make SERIOUS CUTS, and or DEFUNDING UW??
Could it be that the State Legislators are UW Fan HOMERS, and take their fanhood into their politics at state legislators?
I know they will deny that, and point to WSU's budget.
Which technically true.
But they are just looking for any reason they can to get rid of WSU as a semi legit competitor to UW.
They just either want WSU gone, making it easier for UW.
OR
They want poor pathetic little ole WSU from 1955 to 1960, ish, that UW can just beat 100 to nothing every season, so that they get another easy win each year, and get all the recruits.
Thats what this is really about.
Even tho they can technically lie, and tell trurh at same time that technically its about WSU's budget.
Hopefully its just 1,2 IDIOT HUSKY Legislators, and not the majority of the state congress.
