RE: Women's Hoops
Again I'm sure most would agree with me. Women's sports sucks. I assume like I usually do, most don't even click on women's sports topics on here. No disrespect.

I'm saying eliminate alot of men's sports too. Focus on money makers

To stay Division I a program needs seven men’s and seven women’s sports (or six/eight in favor of women’s sports).

What you’re suggesting isn’t realistic.

I hope you never had/have strong willed daughters/granddaughters in your life.

Women's softball, basketball and volleyball are all fun sports to watch and lately the NIU women's basketball team has been more fun to watch than the men.

You would be surprised, because intelligent individuals who understand reality would not agree with you.
First and foremost, women's sports do not suck and the evidence is in continually growing participation numbers and even financial success of many NCAA championship events.
The idea that the number of people who "click" on women's sports topics is a valid excuse for ignoring Title IX is simply ridiculous.
Actually you are being disrespectful to everyone who has ever supported, cheered or relished victories from NIU women's teams and all Huskie squads regardless of gender, so that includes those "men's sports" you're willing to eliminate.
Even though collegiate athletics has long stopped being anything other than a business, the definition of a modern collegiate program includes men's and women's sports, not just "money makers."
But this is the white flag. You can continue posting nonsense, but it's clear responses like mine are a waste of effort with you.

Women's Hoops
Everyone knows I love women's basketball. Both my wife and I love it way more than football and men's basketball combined. I used to have a lesser attitude towards women's sports until I really got into basketball. The effort they give, the skill with which they play, the love and respect they have for each other and their coach, and the true fun they have playing the game are absolutely wonderful to behold. The same can be said for the other women's sports. Give up a women's sport? Never!

And Check out the GPAs on women’s teams. These are truly “student athletes”
