Western Illniois will have to do a bunch of guarantee games on the road to "replenish the WIU coffers"..
Wichita State has serious budget issues, too...
Due to state budget bickering the money just isn't there and 50% of all of Wichita State's employees will be forced to go on FURLOUGH starting July1.
Thus they might as well not show up for work as there's no guarantee they are gonna get paid!!
"WSU (Wichita State) deputy athletic director Darron Boatright said half of the athletic department could be furloughed,
although he would not list names of employees paid by the state. The list will include people in administration,
internal and external operations and coaches, he said. The other half are employees of the
Intercollegiate Athletics Association and are not subject to the furlough."
meanwhile, speaking of budget...in Florida....IMG Academy - a "PRIVATE for-profit sports academy known for training international sports stars"
continues to receive huge sums of taxpayer money as handouts from the state while other more serious concerns like schools and programs for disabled & elderly have to tighten their belts. IMG has landed $7 million in state government giveaways just because they seem to know the right people.
