This is a quote from Mark Coyle is straight out of the Joel Maturi playbook.
“We have teams winning the Big Ten Conference championships, teams going to the Final Four, and we are not talking about those things,” Coyle said.
At every other Big 10 school, they are aware that the revenue sports driver the engine. Under Maturi's reign, we worked hard to make sure we put a large amount of our extra resources toward our non revenue sports. It would appear that Coyle's focus will be on those sports again as we should be only talking about those Big 10 championships. Folks, get ready for the early 2000's again when we can celebrate those iconic Big 10 Womens Swimming and Diving crowns!
