I could be wrong, but I wouldn't hold my breath. The worst of the publicity has passed, and the department now gets to bask in the glow of a women's basketball national championship.
Agree with Spiny that this is not financial. My sense is that the meeting with the BoT and MTL is more about optics and making sure that people don't feel unheard than it is about changing their mind.
Very large donors making their displeasure apparent could move the needle, but I haven't heard of any movement among the donors who count.
I would mentally prepare for having 11 fewer sports next year. Hope I'm wrong, though.
