I'm really struggling to predict

the way things are going to work. The number of available scholarships went up, but with NIL, generally, the money is all in one pile from school to school. SO, if you're school has decided to focus on Football/Basketball, then theoretically, every additional Softball, Soccer, Wrestling, Baseball, etc. scholarship deducts from the net available for the focus. I would love for our Athletic Department to put something out confirming their commitment to the "non-revenue" sports and their athletes. The net good times that Softball and Soccer has given me over the years vs. Football/Basketball isn't even close and I've been a season ticket holder for 25+ years.

It does look like they increased numbers to the needed level for some

Do we think that some of the numbers are for Title IX purposes?**
