    Default Athletics Budget Cuts

    Sounds like things aren't as bad at NDSU as UND....Larson reiterated no sports will be cut but per Dom the athletics department will need trim about $400k...

    Larsen adds that the #NDSU athletic department will have to cut about 400K. Adds it's "a moving target"

    #NDSU president Dean Bresciani says appropriated general funds for athletics is being slashed by 40 percent to make up for state's shortfall

    So NDSU athletics was only receiving $1,000,000 in general funds previously?

    Appropriated funds. Institutional funds. Would be nice to see the entire picture.

    2015 $4,498,064 $4,067,171 $3,189,315 $1,500,061 $6,561,057 $2,501,312 $22,316,980

    Expenses from 2013 to 2015:

    YEAR COACHING / STAFF SCHOLARSHIPS FACILITIES / OVERHEAD OTHER TOTAL EXPENSES
    2015 $7,663,880 $3,501,744 $1,744,957 $9,357,849 $22,268,430
    2014 $7,383,100 $3,461,090 $859,513 $8,915,135 $20,618,838
    2013 $6,693,954 $3,270,917 $939,916 $7,798,182 $18,702,969


    Really wish I had 2016's numbers (to see how FCOA and the SHAC affect the current budget), but making up $400,000 shouldn't be too difficult. Going to need to rely on increasing Ticket Sales, Contributions and possibly Rights/Licensing Fees. At the same, will need to come up with ways to reduce Facilities/Overhead and Other costs.

    From the 2017-2019 NDSU Biennial Budget Request https://www.ndsu.edu/fileadmin/vpfa/...dget_17-19.pdf

    ATHLETICS REDUCTIONS. $420,125
    Athletics has identified budget reductions that will be accomplished by reducing operating expenses for administrative travel, medical and office supplies, postage and printing, repair services and phone services. Salary and benefit reduction $135,135; operating reduction is $284,990.

    Impact
    Reduction of expenses to critical unit operations, funding will be reallocated and prioritized to minimize impacts to student athlete where possible. Student athletes may be affected by missed class time (bus vs air travel), number of student athletes allowed to travel, reduction of non-conference opponents as a part of the overall schedule, extended uniform replacement cycles and equipment resulting in poor condition and potential safety issues.
    My question is if the $400,000 tweeted by Dom is additional or the new estimate that NDSU knew was coming and already prepared for in the Biennial Budget?

    Teammakers should be able to cover that with increased teammakers donations from the Shac much less slight increased at the dome. We could actually cover the cost with the non revenue sports just by getting some fans to the games. I'm talking the softball, baseball, wrestling, and ladies basketball of the world's. Heck Bison 1660 radio advertising gives 30% of gross revenue

    I'll be slightly increasing my donation, hopefully everyone else does too.

    Join the Green and the Gold Collective to take Bison football to the next level. Starts at $10 a month

    The Green and The Gold Collective is excited to announce our #DriveToFive membership campaign. The goal of this campaign is to get to 500 monthly members. Reaching this goal will help us provide financial support to NDSU student athletes, including every returning member of the football team that saw action on the field last year!

    I will up mine some as well. Plus another reminder the school get more money from merchandise sold through the bookstore than other outlets. Order online and it comes quickly.

    Whats the difference between being fully funded and not from last year?
