What the fricking NCAA needs to do is this: you want to bump football scholly numbers? That’s fine, go up to 100. But to compensate and balance for fairness and to comply with Title IX, you have to increase non-revenue/Olympic sports scholarships by the same number on both male and female teams, not by creating a new sport/team but by adding to what you already have. To assist, the NCAA is increasing scholarship limits in baseball, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, volleyball, tennis, golf, etc.

As if the transfer portal isn't busy enough these days. Let's increase the allotment to a hundred entitled Millenials all trying to get on the field.

Not sure you understand how Title IX works. If you add 15 football scholarships, you'll have to add 15 FEMALE ONLY scholarships, not "increase non-revenue/Olympic sports scholarships by the same number on both male and female teams."

Adding 30 full athletic scholarships would cripple many college athletic programs.
