It said that they would not to opt into the House settlement for the 2025-26 school year. Bill Maher said it was the most prudent thing to do to take the year and make sure how it all shakes out. If the settlement is approved, they will select the best course of action.

College athletics is all over the place. The dust will settle at some point. Sadly, it's all about money.

Time will tell on what this means for the Big 4 schools.

Go Griffs!

If we drop to D3 none of the House decision would apply? With a 15 million dollar deficit I'm worried.

President Steve wants to grow Canisius University. He and the other POWERS THAT BE have been working to rid CU of the deficit issue since last Fall as BG understands the matter. It seems their philosophy is you have to tear down before you can build up. BG has also read in several places that our President also belives that D1 athletics are an important part of growing the student population. BG was told by someone "in the know" at an event last Spring that Canisius has under way the silent part of a $150 MM development drive, that part being discussions with potential sources who or which could be significent donors. CU at one point was going to demolish Lyons Hall after the 2022 storm damage to it. Now CU is litigating with the insurance carrier for a more fair damage amount to restore the building. BG doesn't think D3 is part of the picture. Has anyone heard anything to the contrary?

From what I’m hearing they’re off to a good start. They need to settle the Lyons Hall situation & do something with that property. Selling it wouldn’t be smart. Put the Wehle Busineess School there vs. burying it in Science Hall. Go Griffs!

And the insurance claim has been settled favorably for Canisius. The $150 million goal is real and $25 million greater than Bona and Niagara set in thei capital campaigns. And,yes, we are committed to staying and succeeding in D-I.
