NAIA Flag Football
That is awesome. How great would it be if/when the NCAA starts that.
I know how much I love college softball (can't say the same about women's basketball). I would absolutely LOVE me some Auburn women's flag football.

Why would someone downvote women's flag football?

In high school decades ago it was called Powder Puff. Why in the hell would you be starting more sports now when there's gonna be sports decimated.

I would rank women’s flag football up there with darts and bowling. Maybe even corn hole.

Auburn already has it....
On the Intramural Level where that crap belongs
It would make more sense to start it on the HS Level, then players can progress to the college level with familiarity of the Game, and a moderate skill level

That, I cannot argue with.

You've maybe never heard of this thing called Title IX. It is a law that stipulates that every university must offer equal scholarships for both men and women. Obviously, football really skews the numbers because of the number of players on scholarship.
So, if you have heard of Title IX, are you saying that you would rather watch women's basketball, tennis, golf or equestrian (which Auburn has a powerhouse program) than flag football? To each their own, but I would not.
Notice I did not include softball, swimming or beach volleyball. The reason for that should be self-explanatory.
ETA: Yes, I did screw up on my Roman numeral for 9.

Title 9 has been around for 50 years.

It'll just get carried like other women's sports if it goes mainstream. You realize the wnba loses money? The world is full of unwise people these days.

On another note, NAIA also has the marathon in T&F and nobody else has it.
