Doesn't matter. Feminists will sue. A women's field hockey player isn't afforded the same opportunity to get her name out there as a football player. That violates title IX

in this day and age if they cry gender discrimination and get enough publicity they could win a law suit against the POTUS. You underestimate the power of public opinion in th social media era and just how stupid the public is.Posted on 2/28/15 at 9:54 pm to BowlJackson
As long as the schools themselves only pay athletes what is included in their scholarship, then those "feminists" wouldn't have a leg to stand on. Is a court going to tell Nike that they can't enter a contract with an adult athlete?
Female athletes would have the same opportunities as male athletes.

I don't know that the school should necessarily pay them, but I'd have no problem with them obtaining endorsements like Olympic athletes do without losing their athletic status.
And yes, there's a market for women to gain endorsements as well. Missy Franklin is a good example as an Olympic swimmer who turned down a ton of shite just to maintain her collegiate eligibility at Cal.
