I don't think those spots are "allocated" to athletics.  In fact, one of the reasons that was given for cutting the sports is for athletes to make up a smaller share of the freshman class each year (of course, that could also have been done by expanding the size of the freshman class).

Yes, it is true that there are a lot less spots allocated to athletics in the Class of 21 due to the 11 cut sports, but it isn't necessarily a one for one cut so there are more spots available for the remaining teams. Bernard Muir said as much in a Zoom call a few weeks ago.  Those sports were cut in part to make the 25 remaining sports a higher priority.
