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
Author: ASA News

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.
So, giving half of the athletic money to half of the athletic population is unfair if the (predominantly male) mob demands otherwise? I'm not asking what can or will happen. I'm asking what's fair. If men choose to give their half of the resources to football, women should be satisfied with less than half? Really???
Hypothetically, what if Title IX was repealed (taken off the books)? Would we truly go back to the early 1970's? Would women have less opportunites? I'd like to hear why.
