They bring in income to the school.  The income they bring in supports all sports at the University including womens sports.[/quote]

So the football program is a DEI program?  JEEBUS it's EVRYWHERE!!![/quote]

No, football is the poster child for meritocracy.  You play on the team based on being the best; why can't academics be the same? I don't see any affinity groups for Asian footballers being formed, do you? [/quote]

The very best college football players on the highest ranked teams are rarely even above average college students.  Yet they play at colleges.  Because U.S. society has incorporated football into its definition of what college "is about".

What if society chose to make "DEI" issues what college "is about"?  Some do think this is what college should be about...[/quote]
