If the top coaches (and female ones, no less) think it's important to do this, who cares what some administrator thinks?

Rich -
According to the second of the two articles posted by BoBo yesterday (and shown below), there may actually be some women's coach support for this initiative - (which is why I said I'm real curious as to exactly who these people are) - which is odd, especially when it would seem, as you've basically stated, that most, if not all women's coaches would be against this.
"According to one source who wanted to remain anonymous, a group of senior women administrators across the country is spearheading the proposal, although at least one coach of a top-15 team is believed to be both a proponent of the initiative and the one lobbying for the group's support." - (from article at

Also, what Snaq posted about the Iowa gray squad (pulling players from it to "walk-on" to the varsity team at times) is fuel to the initiative's argument. I hadn't thought of that before, but I'm guessing it's something they have.
