This got brought up and buried elsewhere. I think the significance of this could be far reaching.
Money is the current driver of sports, so messing with their plans might be a deal breaker. I can see the money making sports of basketball and football breaking away from the ncaa and having their own rules on NIL - probably a salary cap for each sport completely separate from the non-revenue generating sports.
This could still be a huge boon to the other sports (WBB, VB, BB, Tennis) as well since that would free up those moneys to go straight to them as the U saw fit.

Sadly it all makes sense. Or could it be full circle, and the NCAA pulled a brilliant back door scheme, found a way to get a gazillion more dollars in play, and will now thrive!?

And the new powers that be save it for now.

If I understand this correctly the least expensive way to stay in title IX compliance is to reduce female enrollment to match your intended scholarship allotment. ie if Alabama decided they needed more football scholarships they could reduce the female enrollment to say 25% and free up 25% of the scholarships. Just sayin’

As the pendulum swings, restoring sanity in some places, madness in others…
Thanks for keeping us on top of this.
