The ADs are skating on very thin ice. If it is school-associated booster club money (for the benefit of the school's varsity sports), then the schools are vulnerable to a Title IX challenge, and should be challenged.

Trying to get some areas of the country to not be so football-centric in HS sports is a challenge, for sure. Same for colleges. Same for your average sports fan.
