This isn't only a Cleveland State issue. Many schools are in the same boat or swimming as fast as they can toward that boat for a variety of reasons. Some reasons are political, some are social, some are economic, some are mismanagement - among many other factors. 

But no, they are not okay.

"... after the university recently moved forward with plans to offer buyouts to help stave off a projected $40 million budget gap."

That's no bueno.

I don't see how the Athletics department makes it through this unscathed.

Yep - Many reasons...the entire script has changed. Instead of kids competing to get into colleges, as it used to be, colleges are now competing for kids. Outrageous prices with little return and half the classes online, has turned many to vocational education which is a wise career move for many. In the sports arena, If you arent in the Big 10, SEC or the top tier program in another conference,  you are treading water.
