After NCAA vote, BGSU buckles down for uncertain financial future

BOWLING GREEN — The NCAA on Monday approved an extra year of eligibility for spring sports athletes whose seasons were canceled due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The next step will be significantly more challenging.

The NCAA ruling will allow athletes to make up for the lost year, but individual schools still will determine how to allocate scholarship dollars in the future.

At Bowling Green State University, the department of athletics is in the same position as most Division I schools by attempting to predict an unpredictable next year from a financial perspective.
