Coyle makes something like $1.4M/ year. It might not be easy to raise big bucks for our programs but that is what we pay big bucks to do.

Minneapolis since George Floyd is no longer a garden patch.

Nothing new in this statement. However, it is the non-revenue sports (swimming, wrestling, track, etc.) that supply our Olympic teams. Without this feed from the collegiate sports, many Olympic sports would falter.
