I think title 9 was a terrible attempt to do something good. it caused schools all over the country to drop programs that had men knocking down the door to get a scholarship so that they could add women's programs for which they have trouble filling rosters. i play lacrosse in college, and our team is in financial shambles because of title 9. we have 3.5 scholarships for 44 guys. the girls team, however, is fully funded, as well as the girls volleyball, soccer, cheerleading, and basketball teams. there wasn't a single girl on the lacrosse team who ran a mile in under 6:30, and there wasn't a single guy on our team who didn't. it's ridiculous. football scholarships should not be counted in the quota total because there isn't a girls sport to compare it to. also, it is technically a unisex sport because a few years ago a girl tried out to kick for duke, and a right now, there's a girl trying out to kick somewhere in PA. if she makes the team, then football scholarships shouldn't be included against title 9 because the sports is for men and women. i think they should just do away with title 9 all together, and have 1 football team, 1 basketball team, 1 soccer team, 1 swimming team, etc. all girls and guys will have an equal opportunity to try out, and they best players would make the team.
