You may have missed these quotes as they are within a tread aways down the page. These are excerpts from the 2002 '12 Essential Questions' interview with Dick Regan conducted by our moderator here....

" We are a small liberal arts college and he realizes that we cannot do some of the things that other schools do. "

" We simply cannot admit some of the student-athletes that other schools do. "

" Fr. McFarland and the Board of Trustees are supportive of the Athletic Program. They want a competitive program however they made it clear to me that we need to get this done with our existing resources. "

" Simply put, they expect me to do the best I can with the resources we currently have allocated to athletics. "

" The economic reality is that football is an extremely expensive sport compared to anything else we do. We spend a lot more on football than we do on men's and women's basketball combined. Somehow we need to find a
way of controlling the cost of football, particularly given the needs of our other twenty-six sports. "

" The other challenge I should mention concerns football. Lehigh and Colgate are spending dramatically more on financial aid than we are in this sport. Right now, we are spending as much as the College's budget can handle. We are going to need to find some way of bridging the gap if those schools keep up with their current level of spending. "
