If you're going to gut the NCAA, you might as well go all the way and not leave any part of your athletic department subject to the whims of the NCAA enforcement folks. Alternatively, if you take the football revenue away, there might not be an NCAA left, in which case (again) you might as well take your other sports with you.
It should be clear why Kevin White, coach K and Ol' Roy decided to retire at the same time.
