I don't think there's another way to achieve the goal of IX in a society that devalues women's sports as ours does.

Are you saying non D-1 schools should just bag their football teams then? Believe it or not, there are non D-1 players who end up in the NFL (and coaches too).

I don't want to think about the alum support my D-2 school would lose if we got rid of the football team - it would make the athletic funding situation even worse.
