Football could end up killing MAC athletic departments.

Football could end up killing MAC athletic departments. It's a slow death in progress over time now, unless something changes. |

Another baseball program bites the dust... Akron just dropped theirs a couple years ago.
Can't believe they killed...women's rowing? That had to break, what, 5 hearts?

Interesting. The article mentions that a schools must have 16 sports teams to be considered for Div-1 FBS status.
There are Div-1 FBS schools with less than 16 teams and they have kept their status.

Don't count hearts, count scholarships which match under Title IX. Subsidy for sports untenable? Where is BSU on list? Buffalo had higher subsidy than we did by more than the 2 mil they just cut. Still have more resources and subsidize more! |

Title IX is a joke. It's an unrealistic mandate that operates under the false assumption that women's sports are as popular as men's. We all know it's not true, but in this PC world of equality we must get in lock-step... lest the social media mafia break your metaphorical legs.

SO does the number of sports have to be equal or is the number of scholarships?

Which is why football with so many men means you have so many women's scholarship teams.

Not really. Buffalo's current demographics are 56% men to 44% women, meaning they could conceivably have 56-59% of their scholarships go to men while only 41-44% go to women. That's hardly equal. |

Nationwide about 11 or 12 million females attended college in fall 2016, compared with 9 or 9 1/2 million males. |
