Attendance might improve but not enough to avoid the program being a huge financial drain. Think UMass.

UMass is a special case in stupid. They refused to join the MAC for all sports and are now marooned as an independent because of it. If they joined the MAC they'd be in much better shape overall. As for being a financial drain, that's not the point of college athletics. Only a couple dozen programs are a net money maker for the university. Turning a profit isn't the point of having athletic programs. That isn't to say sports should burn money with reckless abandon, but making money isn't really the point.
