Both programs lost

Let's be real, any move to support students is a step in the right direction and the lack of finances that makes all the improvements impossible to complete on your timeline doesn't mean they don't really care.

What lawsuits? Give us a summary.

"Equal" treatment is defined under the law, regulation and case law. It doesn't say "equal". The doesn't mean the same or exactly the same.

Here is the wording of Title IX: "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance."

I don't know what UM has for those facilities that were mentioned, nor do I know the law and practice.

Why don’t you go look at them and judge for yourself.

The University of Oregon is facing a landmark federal class-action Title IX lawsuit (Schroeder v. University of Oregon) filed by female beach volleyball and rowing athletes. The suit alleges systemic gender discrimination, unequal financial aid, and—notably—disparate Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) benefits facilitated by the school. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Core Allegations

• • Unequal Resources: Women comprise roughly 49% of varsity athletes, but plaintiffs claim the university allocates significantly lower percentages of its overall athletic and recruiting budgets to women's programs. [1]
  • Substandard Facilities: The women's beach volleyball team historically lacked dedicated on-campus locker rooms and permanent facility courts, forcing them to use public or off-campus spaces. [1, 2, 3, 4]

no one said it was shocking. Just like Egriz, the university has losers also. The fact is when you lose money in business you try to figure out how to fix it so you don't.

Of course not the question was which sports generate or don’t generate revenue

Time to cut some fat

Every school in America is running their track and soccer programs at a loss. Football (and men's basketball at some schools) is the money maker for the entire AD. That's not an excuse for the UM athletic department to continually neglect the soccer and track facilities like they have.

Utah Tech has better soccer and track facilities than us, and they were D2 a decade ago

I think most everyone knew that football was the only correct answer.

Could be because they push less money into maintaining their football facility.

Not by much.

Football reported revenues of $9,884,612 and expenses of $8,889,687 for a net of $994,925. The expenses were a record high, eclipsing $8,792,165 in FY 2024
