couldnt they cut football expenses and add more womens sports or is everything tied into how much money the football team can make.

I'm sure "They" can do whatever they want as long as it makes "cents".

Jadeveon Clowney is being punished because not enough people support women's athletics.

did south carolina not renew his scholarship this year. there was a gamecock football team before clowney and i bet they still have football after he leaves. regarding uniform purchases, if i buy a number 20 jersey that to me is billy sims, it depends on the era you became a fan. now if you split all the jersey money between all ex players from all time that wore that number, that is something i could agree with.

Hasn't Title IX ended lots of college sports programs at schools throughout the country?

To drag us back from the abyss that is discussion of Title IX:

Bryan Wiedey @pastapadre 2m
Of SEC schools to reply, Kentucky and Arkansas offering no assurance they're staying in the video game.

Should we feel sorry for the athletes who can no longer play their sport because most people are not interested in it, or should we feel sorry for the athletes that are being exploited for money because interest is so great?

The answer to that is yes. Which brings me back to my original, albiet off-topic point. It was designed to help women's athletics, which I am for. But I don't see how eliminating male teams just to make the numbers match up isn't the definition of hypocrisy.

And really, this issue is just one of the many that leads up to where we are today. Close to the announcement of no College Football 15. We should probably leave the Title IX talk elsewhere as I doubt many of us are truly qualified to weigh in on that subject with strong knowledge of the subject....seeing as how this is a video game forum.

To NCAA Football.....this isn't goodbye, it's ill see you later...hopefully! Lol

I know.

I'm telling you to change the "topic at hand" as it is being discussed in the appropriate threads elsewhere on the site.

This thread is not for that discussion.



Last warning.

once one team decides not to be in the game, all the dominoes will fall.

The problem is how to do it otherwise.

And now back to the topic.

No such luck, I would bet. College Football 15 is on a new console; with the news today it doesn't make sense to push any sort of serious development time or funding to a game that may or may not even launch next July (and if it does, who knows how many conferences/teams will pull out before then? Do they have the capability to genericize 120+ teams worth of stuff they've spent years getting authentic (jerseys, helmets, color schemes, logos, entrances, fight songs and stadiums just to name seven)?

It's gone for good. There's no telling when this O'Bannon stuff will be over, and the risk of withdrawals won't stop until that's clarified. EA (nor any other developer) isn't going to pour resources into a game they might be able to use authentic information for; generic stuff just doesn't sell.

[ShadowBoxxr]

The logos, championship game, and in-game conference patches are all things that bring authenticity to the NCAA football. Removing those items unquestionably downgrades this game.
