    any opinions on this issue? NCAA wants to ban males from practicing against womens' teams. see link:

    I noticed in the article that the Duke womens basketball coach doesn't use all her scholarships intentionally. why don't they pull them to use in other sports?

    Don't see a problem with it myself. I've read quite a few opinion from women coaches and players that disagree with it. They feel it makes them better at their sport. More PC crap if you ask me.

    If it helps there team, I see no problem with it. Matter of fact, it will be some of the best competition a woman's team could have.

    IF

    If you had a daughter that was riding the pine during practice while male students practiced with the team, how would you feel about it? How would your daughter feel about it?

    Maybe it doesn't matter to parents and the player(s) as long as the scholarship is not affected?
