The value to Stanford’s reputation of those teams is much greater than that of our hideous football team. None of the gymnasts even have a full scholarship. The football team no longer funds the other sports.
My understanding of the settlement is that there will be no more partial scholarships beginning in the 2025-26 academic year. Roster limits will replace scholarship limits and there will be no more walk-on’s. Everyone on a team will be on a full scholarship. I believe that will be applicable to all sports, revenue and non-revenue.
if that's the case then
1. do men's and women's sports need the same number of roster spots in total across all sports to be Title IX compliant?
2. for the partial scholarship sports (e.g., baseball) their costs could go up (or roster sizes decrease) and the total number of scholarships could increase and may change the balance of men's/women's scholarships requiring an adjustment in both
