They won on a golden goal in OT over NCSU. Felt familiar somehow…

This will happen more and more.

Wondering when the Title IX suit will kick in?

More fallout. I guess these programs are cheaper?

Seems like they would be more expensive.

Maybe this is just a shift to reflect interest in those sports.

Dodgeball should be inexpensive. A new inexpensive winter sport could be cafeteria tray sledding.

Definitely a cost saving with tennis typically costing 6 figues to operate (7 figures for the top programs) vs 5 figures for flag football.

Wondering how many scholarships got pulled, whether to current athletes or current HS seniors?

Wait. No scholarships for flag?? Are you freaking kidding me???

FWIW, flag football just became an NCAA sponsered sport last month, with the first championship to take place in 2028.
