Where's the gender equity...

...among gender equity watchdogs?

Seems that 83% of Title IX coordinators are female!  Not exactly proportional now, is it?  Read more here.

We examined 52 institutions.  All have Title IX Coordinators as mandated by law for all institutions receiving federal funding.

At 43 of them (82.7 percent), the Title IX Coordinator is a woman.  At 9 of the institutions (17.3 percent), the Title IX Coordinator is a man.

So, not only are males waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay underrepresented, I think we'll soon be hearing complaints about the lack of transgender individuals in those positions as well.

HS Sports: Privilege or Right?

(via New York Daily News)

In their $40 million suit naming everyone even remotely associated with the high school track program, Mawsumensah Mears and his dad claim his right to run track has been taken away.  Read more here.

On May 6, Mawusimensah Mears, a sophomore at Sterling Regional High School in Camden County, was kicked off the team, the suit says.

Eleven days later, his father sued in Camden, naming the coach, athletic director, principal, superintendent, and school board.

The suit says his son was subjected to bullying and harassment. It seeks $40 million plus 2012 and 2013 varsity letters and championship jackets.

Uh, coach?  I don't think I'll practice today and I really don't like the events you put me in for the meet.  Looks like you owe me $40 million.

It's unfair, Mears said, that his son wasn't allowed to compete, even though he may have been faster than some seniors who raced. "If he doesn't qualify, then the clock will say he's not fast enough," said Mears, who worries his son may be losing out on the possibility of a college athletic scholarship.

"Let him get some exposure," Mears said.

Unexcused absences from practice were the official reason Mears said he was given for his son's dismissal. That's an excuse, Mears said. A family death and injured leg kept his son away.

"Participation in extracurricular activities is a right," Mears said.

I'd say you've done more than your fair share to get him some exposure, dad.  That last statement will be enough to get him on the "Don't Recruit this Kid" list for every college coach in the country...

Rutgers paid $70,000 for the background check that failed to uncover the accusations of verbal and emotional abuse from former volleyball players against the state university’s new athletics director Julie Hermann, an Asbury Park Press investigation found today.

According to the contract obtained by the Press, Rutgers on April 8 hired Parker Executive Search to advertise the AD position, identify candidates and perform background checks on them.

Laurie Wilder, executive vice president of Parker Executive Search, who signed the three-page agreement, declined an interview request for this story, saying in an email, “We do not discuss our clients publicly.’’

Another Week = Another Rutgers Problem

Will Rutgers dump their first female athletic director, Julie Hermann, before she even starts work?  The next (?) Rutgers AD is alleged to have been abusive to her volleyballers while head coach at Tennessee.  Read more here and here.

In the letter submitted by all 15 team members in 1996, the volleyball players said Hermann called them "whores, alcoholics and learning disabled" and they wrote: "It has been unanimously decided that this is an irreconcilable issue." The players told The Star-Ledger that Hermann absorbed the words and said: "I choose not to coach you guys."

After a series of interviews with many of the former Tennessee players about Hermann, The Star-Ledger said:

"Their accounts depict a coach who thought nothing of demeaning them, who would ridicule and laugh at them over their weight and their performances, sometimes forcing players to do 100 sideline pushups during games, who punished them after losses by making them wear their workout clothes inside out in public or not allowing them to shower or eat, and who pitted them against one another, cutting down particular players with the whole team watching, and through gossip.

"Several women said playing for Hermann had driven them into depression and counseling, and that her conduct had sullied the experience of playing Division I volleyball."

She's certainly got the verbal skills, but the possibility of teaming with Mike Rice to co-host Rutgers Dodgeball camp will depend on her arm strength.

Enough about the abuse, time for the (dis)honesty portion of our story:

The strangest tidbit of all from the story is a comment from Hermann that she did not recall even attending the wedding of Ginger Hineline, the former assistant who won the judgment. At her introductory press conference, Hermann said there was not video of her talking about Hineline's wedding night. She also told the paper she thought the couple had eloped.

"There's a video? I'm sorry, did you say there's a video? There's no video, trust me," Hermann said.

Wrong answer.

On its website, the newspaper has a video from the wedding. Hermann says, "... I hope it's good tonight, because I know you've been waiting for awhile. But I hope it's not too good because you don't want to come back in February with any surprises in the office at all. It'd be hard to have a baby in there and baby-sitting. Actually, I wouldn't mind it so much … I don't know."

The newspaper's video ends with one final shot: Julie Hermann, a bridesmaid at the wedding, catching the bride's bouquet.

Just think, if they hadn't dumped men's swimming, none of this would have ever happened...

Lone Star Cup Update

Lone Star Cup standings were updated last week.  View here.

Why is this such a big deal to administrators?


(via brew)


Is it because winning school principals and athletic directors win a case of Lone Star Light for each week of school next year?

...26...22...24...

...how about we just say "around two dozen"...

Around two dozen.  That's how many schools in the NCAA can say their athletic departments are in the black.  That's it.

The other bizillion?  Guess you can't honestly say there are many "revenue" sports among them, right?

Of course there's a foosball program here and a thump-thump team there that bring in more than they spend, but the reality of it is that labeling a college program as a revenue sport is just another form of b.s. that spews from a d.a. a.d.'s mouth.

Newsflash!  We don't support collegiate athletics in order to break even!  We back these programs because they're part of the learning/growing process for thousands of our young people who attend schools as true student/athletes.

Thanks to the out-of-control spending on high-profile "revenue" sports, we may be approaching the point at which this "bubble" bursts.

(via Alex & Britt)

Read Richard Vedder's The College Sports Bubble here.

Even the NCAA’s own data suggest that only 22 major programs break even or make a profit. In the second-tier athletic conferences, such as the 13-university Mid-American Conference (MAC), schools typically need $10-20 million annually to balance their athletic budget, increasingly met by student fees that can approach $1,000 a year. A survey of students at MAC member colleges directed by David Ridpath suggests that most students are unaware of the extent of the fees, and unhappy when informed of them, given their general low level of interest in collegiate sports and the increasing financial strains of attending college.

That "$10-20 million annually to balance their athletic budget" isn't because sports like swimming are spending huge amounts on Strokemakers.  It's because schools go waaaaaaaaaay into the red by overspending on jockstraps for third-string punters and paying six-figure salaries for waterboy coaches.

UNCW Update

Dylan's comment on recent UNCW post:

Website to support UNCW Swimming just launched: http://saveuncwswimmingdiving.org/

Thank you for your support!

(via Save UNCW Swim & Dive)

Not quite up to speed?  Catch up here.

UNCW Chancellor Gary Miller got a little letter from swim supporters.  Read it at Swimming World here.

The Swim and Dive team is categorized as a nonrevenue sport. However, the Aqua hawks were originally asked to provide $20,000 each year to the athletic dept. to help cover scholarships. Back around 2008 the number was increased to $25,000 per year, which occurred during the "sports specific" donation time in the Seahawk Club. Aquahawks always made this commitment, and oftentimes donated between the 25,000 and $30,000 each year. In the absence of this "sports specific" donation period, we still donated $10,000 to the athletic dept in 2012-13. The report notes a booster program that is in disarray with inconsistent policies, lack of attention to constitutes desires and details, compromised relationships, poor outreach to the community and a critical need to rebuild fundraising relationships that are sensitive to constitute expectations.

Very good, guys and gals!  "...categorized as a nonrevenue sport" is absolutely correct!  Even though almost every sport at nearly every university is really "nonrevenue", athletic directors, school presidents, etc. love to divide their athletic departments into "revenue" and "non-revenue" categories.

Kind of like splitting your bills up into "overdue" and "past due" piles, right?

If UNCW athletic program and administrative leadership is afraid to state and address critical failures, then the program is doomed to repeated failures. Drilling down to the facts of the report, it is clear that the leadership in the Athletic Department firmly believes that additional funds are needed to increase the competitiveness of the flagship sports program, the men's basketball program. Anyone familiar with college sports is also intimately aware that the fate of the AD and Head Basketball coach are intimately intertwined. The athletes on the Swim and Dive team exemplify everything that is right with college athletics. They excel in the pool, in the community and in the classroom.

These folks did their homework.  Called out Athletic Director Jimmy "Dum" Bass for hiding poor budget management behind the old "this will make our remaining programs more competitive" smoke screen.

Also, read between those last couple of lines.  Swim/Dive is everything that's right with college athletics in contrast to...
