UNO to drop wrestling
With UNO's impending move into the Summit, UNO intends to drop football and wrestling. I can see football but wrestling is one of the best D2 programs having won 6 out of the last 8 NCs. It would have been a very good fit in the WWC.
Too bad!
I guess they are going to add men's golf and soccer......lol

Horsepoop.
UNO wrestling was losing $400k a year in an athletic department that is on the brink of collapse.
It has little to do with Title IX.

I've heard of going out on top, but win three straight titles and bail is a whole new level of out-on-top-ed-ness.

Re: UNO to drop wrestling
I thought the wrestling program was not a drain on the athletic department down there. The Kaufman-Brand Open makes their wrestling program money and I thought their coach raised a lot of outside money to fund the program.
There is an article at theguillotine.com that says as much. I guess their FB program was the one that lost the most money.
D1 wrestling only funds 9.9 schollies.....too bad they cannot find a way to keep it going....esp since it is the best D2 program out there. They would have been a great fit into the WWC.

Re: UNO to drop wrestling
They bring in $100k and dole out $500k. You do the math.
Again, very few sports actually float.

Re: UNO to drop wrestling
A USA Today article posted online today said their wrestling budget was 250K and would have to get to 500K to be competitive at D1.
Too bad for such a tradition rich program.
