Yeah, wish they'd just come back to the A10 for hoops and forget about stupid football. They're not in the BCS elite, so what's the point?

In that video, I was completely expecting to hear more audible outrage beyond the sobbing camera person.

Yeah, this sucks. The crew losses hurt the most to me, just because there's a history of rowing in the city and Boathouse Row is a pretty iconic image in Philly. There was some controversy about Temple getting space there a few years back, and there's always been talk about the school having to cut back. Campus space is restricted- it's surrounded by neighborhoods, with some resulting tension- and the facilities are limited, with basketball being about the only main sport played on campus. But at the same time, the school has changed in a lot of positive ways over the last 15 years or so with developing the area and making it more of a real campus.

Somewhere Bill Cosby must be unhappy.

College athletics must get back to more regional conferences. Football is one thing, but all this travel must hurt.
