[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should football and basketball have to support non revenue producing sports. Why should ncaa mandate that div. 1 schools have 16 sports. Who goes and watches college golf or tennis? Interesting that football and basketball teams are usually made up of minority players who then subsidize primarily sports with white players. [/quote]

Agreed with first part of your comment. Then you bring race into it. Anyhow, I love watching college football and b-ball. And it would be neat if my kid played college soccer, but money-losing college sports (which almost all are) are a drain financially. Personally I think school sports should stop at high school. Pro leagues should have no age restriction outside of being 18, and even then exceptions can be made with parental/guardian approval. More minor leagues would pop up to serve those that aren’t quite good enough for the big leagues (like baseball). Meanwhile, colleges would focus on academics and research and not sports hype and fame. [/quote]

I agree. It would be a better system to have more minor leagues that actually pay the players. [/quote]
