While I absolutely agree, it still doesn't explain why they participate in the playoffs of every single other sport except football. Does their academic mission not matter for basketball, tennis, and baseball players?
There's no money in it at that level. Basketball - there is money...other sports doesn't require spending a lot of money to go post-season.
Football is a big enterprise...unless they can recoup money like basketball, they aren't going to to do it. They are cheap.
They do it for B-ball for the $ and reward of worldwide exposure...
But, who gives a crap about lower-level football playoffs?
....and the other sports is like H.S. shite...
And plus, they don't want to go outside their conference and lower themselves...they are Ivy...why should we play these peons?
