No. No women's hoops program makes money.

It's outrageous that cheerleading doesn't count as a sport


Agree. It requires physical ability and it even has a national championship.

Best of all, if you make it a sport you screw Texas A&M.

How many of our gymnasts are even old enough to attend college and benefit from Title IX? Katie Ledecky will be matriculating at Stanford in September. The most dominant performers haven't needed Title IX.

NPR has an agenda they want to push, and this is part of their agenda. Did NPR speculate that American male performance in track and field has declined, and it may be connected with less funding due to Title IX? Just wondering.
