My problem with a much needed law as Title IX is when it started law makers, etc threw FB into the mix with all the other sorts, instead of putting it in a separate category!
No women's sport carries 85 to 100 participants as FB does so the total male figures are inflated which female sports can never reach and Colleges then had to cut smaller men's programs such as, Wrestling, men's tennis, men's golf, men's gymnastics, + others to make the numbers closer to equal!
FB should NOT be included in the formula and should be considered a separate entity!
FB does subsidize other smaller sports both men and women that don't charge admission fees so they have no incoming revenue!
The sportscasters DT is referring to also over-hype a woman dunking as if it makes WBB more like MBB to justify WBB importance!
IMHO WBB should ban dunking and emphasize all the points that make WBB such a great game that we love!
Remember John Wooden used to say that men don't PLAY BB anymore, if he wanted to see real BB he'd watch women's BB!   
To me, men play above the hoop, women play below the hoop!
