Half the students attend that school because of football. Our university's enrollment has grown by leaps and bounds over the last 10 years thanks to that team's success. The reason why Denny is considered to be the university's greatest administrator is because he grew Alabama into a school to be respected. Know how he did that? Football.

And Alabama could easily survive as a private institution. Other schools have successful programs without having to rely on federal funding. So football can theoretically survive without government assistance.

Theoretically women's and men's golf could survive without football. They'd have to make changes but private schools, D2 schools and D3 schools do it with ease. If everyone removed football then everyone would would at square 1 with other sports and they would adjust to be able to survive and break even.

So, again, this argument is dumb.
