You don't have to disband the team once you have already disbanded it....which no coaches, no transportation, no training facilities would do. Those aren't perks....those are the minimum necessary to field a team.
Make men's basketball a club sport. Players have to buy their own uniforms, equipment, balls, provide their own transportation, arrange facilities for practices, maybe have an advisor in the student affairs office to help with paperwork.

Btw- i wasn't suggesting no busses etc. I was suggesting crappy everything. Nice ones would be considered perks by those who have had much worse.

Well.....a club team can't compete in the league. I would think Dartmouth enjoys its Ivy League rivalries. As I said you'd be ending the program.

If anyone complained, refer them to the players who voted to unionize.

I like the point of just refusing their demands. What recourse would the players have? None.

Does nobody on here realize this isn't just some Ivy League shenanigans, this is just the next step in destroying college athletics, now that NIL and the transfer portal have inflicted the initial pain. Players will have collective bargain agreements and unions will control everything, well the part not controlled by Congress. As many have said, the NIL and transfer portal were just the beginning, this is where we are headed, union control of college sports, semi-pro ball, all for money, we won't even recognize college sports, if there is any, in 10 years, maybe sooner. Wonder where ticket prices are headed from here? I'm pretty much done with it already, but hopefully all those pushing all the change are satisfied.
