Interesting to look at the different sports to see the results. Seems like certain sports one side has dominated for years (Swimming/Track/XC for you and Wrestling/Volleyball for us). For years our women’s bball dominated the series but that has shifted more recently. I don’t expect football to change anytime soon 😉 Edited May 1 by Stlboiler23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Walters and company are going to do big things tbh. Already crushing it on the recruiting trail. I do think we got lucky that Williams got hurt. I think the game looks a bit different if he hadn’t gotten hurt. Edited May 1 by Stlboiler23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, they just prefer to operate without baseball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, they just prefer to operate without baseball. First off I’m for women’s sports and therefore support the reasons for TitleIX. I am so thankful that my daughter had the opportunities in sports that she did. Heck up until this season she was my grandson’s baseball coach! However I was right in that time frame, I wrestled one year in college then the team was no more. So MANY non revenue sports dropped!! So many STILL dropped like Purdue Baseball! My neighbor is a professor of Sports Management his doctoral concerned Title IX it is still needed, but unfortunately many schools still haven’t figured out the balance. Maybe I’ll get a warning for this, but it pis… me off that after all the sacrifices made on both sides we now have men winning women’s championships!!!!!! And I know and accept transgender people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would argue that football is the main problem. I know it’s the money-maker but why do college football programs need 85!!! scholarships? I think Title IX is an equal scholarship thing, not equal sport thing right? Certainly correct me if I’m wrong. But if I’m right, reducing football scholarships could have saved other men’s sports. Not to go down a rabbit hole, but it’s criminal that baseball gets 11.7 while football sits with 85. Football kids who never touch the field in four years are getting full rides.

Best I can tell no BIG school currently has a fencing team!? And the sad thing is women’s fencing is strong. I got into fencing because my older brother fenced for IU!

That's not really the issue. 85 is pretty close to the correct amount... much lower and it would be tough. The issue, at least with baseball, is the NCAA/schools are cheap asses. There's no reason there aren't 35 full ride schollies in baseball. These schools aren't close to poor. They already give 12 ... what's 20 some more?

They already give 12 ... what's 20 some more? We can agree to disagree on the 85 scholarships. You won’t be able to convince me that they need 85, quality wouldn’t change a bit with 75 instead of 85. Agree on the last part and have an opinion on why baseball gets screwed, but I’m not opening that can up.
