New DOO

Welcome Maiya!

If they didn't have the money, they likely would not fill the position, in the great scheme of things, she probably gets paid less than the maintenance staff.

Well the generic responsibilities are fairly modest and likely vary from program to program:

All aspects of travel (hotels, flights, charter busses).
Game Day Operations (shoot around/practice times, officials, pre-game and post-game meals).
Day to Day operations (facility scheduling and upkeep, all program purchases, video work).
Gear, Housing, Budget Allocation, being an academic liaison (checking classes, weekly assignment sheets, etc.).
Scheduling, managing managers, and doing anything else to help our program.

It's like a municipality that gives a perk to the fire dept. The police, highway and school departments will all want it, too, for equity.

Wait til they find out the perk was a big vat of nine alarm chili.🙂

I don't expect to change anything but think the recent forgiveness of Federal student loans could be a catalyst for the Federal Government to require a slower rate of tuition increases at colleges who accept federal Student loan checks.

I have nothing against basketball programs but think the DOBO would be an option to cut if colleges were required to slow tuition increases. It would take a few more places because the DOBO or DOO only costs ten bucks a year or so per student at an HC sized school and less at the big universities.
