Gambling isn't paying off nearly as much as they expected.

I agree that sports will be the first to go but they've got to get a hold on education at every level.
Again, sports won't be the first to go, because so little is funding by the state to begin with... Excessive hiring, raises, professorships, academic building projects will be delayed or cut back...

Gambling revenue is just as good and better in many areas than it was a year ago, so that money is still there and is being used as it has in the past, usually for one time funding projects, not salaries and such..
