"Experience is what you get, when you don't get what you wanted"

Virginia state Sen. Creigh Deeds, a Democrat from Charlottesville, has proposed a bill to edit an existing law that caps the amount of tuition subsidies that Virginia public schools can direct toward athletics.
The legislation would remove a paragraph in a decade-old statute that requires any new student fee revenue allocated toward athletics to be matched with a proportionate increase in generated revenue from elsewhere, and expands the list of expenses that are exempt from the cap's calculations.
Deeds' bill also asks the state's joint legislative audit and review commission to study the impact of its current limitations on student fee revenue "in light of evolving trends in intercollegiate athletics institutions and organizational structures and policy," and to consider how they impact a school's ability "to maintain competitiveness" in college sports.
Deeds, chair of the commerce and labor committee, introduced Senate Bill 1217 on Jan. 8; it was subsequently referred to the committee on education and health. Virginia's general assembly is in the midst of this year's short session, which concludes on Feb. 22. Any legislation would have to pass out of its chamber prior to the "crossover" deadline on Feb. 5 for it to have a chance of being enacted in 2025. Deeds did not respond to multiple requests for comment left with his office.
Across the country, universities are scrambling to find new–or double down on old–ways of raising money with the House v. NCAA settlement paving the way for revenue-sharing with athletes. Schools will be able to share up to $20.5 million next year should the settlement be approved, creating a new line item that has universities up and down Division I assessing their financial capabilities.
Virginia Commonwealth University, a non-football DI school based in Richmond, plans to spend up to $5 million on compensating its athletes next year, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Virginia Tech has said it will spend the full $20.5 million. Meanwhile, UVA saw its celebrated head men's basketball coach, Tony Bennett, abruptly resign before the current season, citing the challenges for coaches of an increasingly professionalized labor force.
In 2015, Virginia passed a law that set athletic subsidy percentage caps for its various types of public institutions: for D-I Power Five schools, 20%; for non-Power Five D-I schools, 55%; for Division I-AA (now FCS) schools, 70%; and higher percentages for lower levels. The measure was proposed by the state's GOP House majority leader, Kirk Cox, a James Madison graduate, who contended that non-athlete students were shouldering too much of the burden of supporting athletics.
Cox's bill, which received bipartisan support, required that for each fiscal year, "any percentage increase in the subsidy … shall be matched by a like percentage increase in generated revenue," based on a five-year rolling average.
Deeds, whose district includes the University of Virginia, is proposing to immediately do away with that latter requirement. His effort follows Virginia's enactment, last July, of the first state NIL law (or second, if you count California) permitting schools to directly enter into NIL deals with college athletes. Since then, several other states have adopted similar provisions in the spirit of competition. Now, with revenue-sharing on the horizon, the new challenge is how to pay for it.
Historically, the Division I athletic programs in Virginia have been heavily dependent on tuition auxiliary fees.
All four of the state's FBS schools ranked in the top 20 in student fee subsidies in fiscal 2023, according to Sportico's college sports finances database. James Madison and Old Dominion were first and second, respectively, at $53.3 million and $30.3 million, with Virginia at No. 10 ($16.1 million) and Virginia Tech at No. 17 ($13.4 million).
The schools argue that some of this owes to more transparent accounting. In addition to higher student fee subsidies, the schools also report far less "direct institutional support" than their peers. JMU athletics, for example, while leading the nation in student fee subsidies, reports less than $2 million in other money from the academic side of the school or its general fund. Sun Belt Conference rival Coastal Carolina, as a comparison, reported $6.9 million in student fees and $21.2 million in direct institutional support in fiscal 2023.
JMU, which completed its move up to FBS in 2022, appears likely to have dominated the category again last fiscal year, reporting $55.5 million in student fees. While the school is not currently compliant with the law's 55% cap, it is within a few percentage points, an athletics spokesman said, and it is on a multiyear state-approved timeline to become compliant following the FBS move. The increase in student fees from fiscal 2023 to 2024 was due primarily to an increase in enrollment, said the spokesman, who declined to comment on Deeds' bill proposal. Spokespeople for Virginia, Virginia Tech, VCU and Old Dominion either declined comment or did not respond to email inquiries.
JMU finished this past football season with a 9-4 record and a victory over Western Kentucky in the Boca Raton Bowl. That followed the Dukes' 11-2 inaugural FBS campaign in 2023-24, which saw year-over-year football ticket revenue grow by almost $700,000. Meanwhile, JMU has seen its athletic spending increase by $18.6 million (32%) since joining college football's top subdivision.
The original 2015 Virginia law listed a few types of expenses that are exempt from the cap calculations. They include costs associated with spirit squads and debt service for previous projects. Deeds' proposed amendments would add money used to "promote student-athlete mental and physical health" to the list of exemptions.
Under the bill, public schools would need to submit annual finance reports to a number of state agencies, including the Auditor of Public Accounts, the governor, the Senate Committee on Education and Health, and the Senate Committee on Finance and Appropriations.
It also encourages lawmakers to review the rest of the original Cox bill to see if more changes are necessary. It says any findings and recommendations from that review should be submitted by Nov. 15.

22 MAY 2008: Sophomore Christiana Taylor from Cabrini College competes in the 200 meter run as part ... [+]
A string of small, private institutions who weathered the Covid-19 pandemic are facing the stark reality that they are no longer solvent. In the Northeast, the Mid-Atlantic and the Upper Midwest, high school graduation numbers are falling off the cliff. Since 2020, thirteen NCAA Division III colleges have or are about to, close.
Why is this happening? Likely due to the 2008 Great Recession, fewer families felt economically secure enough to have children. Now, 16 years later, those decisions have become reality.
Recent headlines tell the story:
Private regional colleges will face stiff competition from public institutions, Moody's predicts
'Roll Cavs, forever': Cabrini hosts a final home basketball game and prepares for closure
Wells College Announces Closure
Colleges are now closing at a pace of one a week. What happens to the students?
Experts predicted dozens of colleges would close in 2023-and they were right
Picking up the pieces of Cazenovia College athletics: Finding a new home
Several years of substantial Covid-19 funding from the Federal Government have run out, say higher education observers.
"Institutions that were not in a great place prior to the pandemic survived the pandemic because of that additional funding, but now they're back where they were before," Rachel Burns, a senior policy analyst for the State Higher Education Executive Officers Association, told CNN.com.
According to Higher Ed Dive, "Small private colleges, especially those in rural areas, are among the most at risk for closure, according to higher education experts. Shifts in enrollment have a greater impact on their budgets, and they typically don't have large endowments to cushion the blow."
In New York State alone, at least seven small colleges have closed since 2020.
This trend is beginning to have a substantial effect on Division III college athletics. While some colleges have added teams and sports, an underreported story has been the number of athletes who have lost opportunities since 2020: 282 teams have been lost, with 200 of them coming from campuses that have closed.
Steve Dittmore, Dean of the College of Education and Health Sciences at Baldwin Wallace University, has been tracking on this data. In an email, he told me:
"The DIII colleges to announce closures in the past two months – Fontbonne, Birmingham-Southern, and Wells – all had fewer than 1,000 undergraduate students, a significant percentage of which were listed as unduplicated athletes, in the school's 2022-23 EADA report.
"In the case of Fontbonne, 63% of its undergraduate student body were athletes," according to EADA reporting.
"If we assume a college's financial struggles emerge gradually, it is possible that adding sports and increasing roster spots can be a strategy to increase revenue. However, this must be evaluated within the context of the college's discount rate and athletic expenses per student."
In the last 15 years, colleges have added sports teams and emphasized growing roster sizes as a way to stabilize enrollment targets, and has gained traction as both a recruitment and retention strategy. Many small colleges with undergraduate populations of less than 2,000 students have 40%-60% participating on a varsity team.
In recent years, some Division III colleges have chosen to add football (with its 100+ roster size) in order to add male tuition paying students. For many leaders, there has been the unspoken expectation that a new football team could add multiple intangibles, including growing residential life, retaining students for four years, and growing community engagement.
But a new research study may put that theory in some jeopardy.
Welch Suggs, an associate professor of journalism at the University of Georgia, led the research team for this study. When looking at the impact adding football has on key campus financial health indicators, there are stark conclusions:
There is no doubt: sports today cost far more than even a decade ago, especially if you want to win. And there are schools adding sports today, including Calvin University, who added football in 2023. (The Division III school now offers 24 varsity sports for a campus of about 3,300.)
But can the benefits outweigh the costs over a long period of time?
In 2023, Dittmore wrote about this reality: "University administrators at tuition-driven institutions wrestle with this reality each day: prospective student numbers are dropping while the cost of remaining competitive is increasing."
While much of the national media has been focused on the consolidation of Division I conferences and the future of big-time college football, another story is emerging in the higher education landscape-adding college sports may not be the financial lifeline once thought.
At a time when colleges are struggling to survive, adding sports (especially football) is a high-stakes gamble with no certainty. And while the noise has been around what's going on with Division I programs, don't forget about the 200 Division III teams that no longer exist. They matter, too.
