Let's keep cutting men's sports. Hey.... it's the economy now, not Title IX.
I find this reasoning amusing.

NCAA's Brand: Don't fault Title IX for Future Cuts

Description:
Brand expects some schools to drop men's teams in coming months because
of the economic downturn. He is urging them in advance to cite the
economy, not the law that bans sex discrimination at schools receiving
federal funds.
The University of Washington is going to renovate their football stadium at a cost of $300 million. This is for a team that went 0-12 this season. Meanwhile, the swim team still uses the pool built in 1938.
We swam UW twice--no diving boards, so we couldn't take the diving points (which is ok cause I think diving is about as dumb as rhythmic gymnastics).
BTW this title IX debate gives me an ulcer because I can't get otherwise seemingly normal human beings to see it my (the right) way.:)
