““The issues raised by the treatment of the teams in San Antonio are symptoms of a much larger attitude that women’s sports are second class to their men’s counterparts,” the letter stated.”
But they are second class – in attendance, revenue and athletic ability. So basically they’re asking for subsidies in order to be competitive.
Funny thing is, they are already subsidized by men’s basketball and football, as are all the other athletic programs. Outside of the families of the players and coaches, literally no one else cares even a little about women’s college basketball.
But is that because so much more has historically been invested in men’s sports? Perhaps if equal investment had been made along to attract audience and earn revenue, there wouldn’t be a difference.
