The board of regents will leave the decision to add or subtract programs from Kansas schools to the President and members of administration for that University.

Due to Title IX men's sports have been reduced to basically football, basketball (both revenue generators) and baseball. Someone needs to perform an extensive study of the correlation of the decline of men's competitiveness in non-revenue, Olympic Sports since the enforcement of equalization of men's and women's scholarships.

There is a "secret" formula for an opportunity at adding wrestling to a D1 school's men's athletic offering.

1. NO football program (86 scholarships)
2. Excess dorm space
3. No existing Title IX compliance issues.
4. A documented need to augment existing enrollment numbers.
5. Proximity to other D1 programs to compete against.

There are 275,000 high school wrestlers in the U.S. Only 76 D1 wrestling programs are in place today. That is that is approximately 753 scholarships and 2,280 roster spots.

In Kansas we have no D1 opportunity yet Oklahoma, Colorado, Nebraska, Missouri all have one school and Iowa has three. Sad to say we are surrounded by opportunities yet offer none. This leaves our wrestlers with just ONE school that offers and in state tuition for Kansas wrestlers.

What can we do? KU and KSU are NOT the answer...
