In response to A Western Bison
The number is 47- my bad. Can't change the header, unfortunately.
How much room exists for football student-athletes to walk on and find a place, or to do the 'development' that Coach Donner said he needs to do for a year or two?
It's worth noting there are roster limits for men's XC and T&F, as there are for all men's teams at Bucknell. The days of being able to develop pure walk-ons over a couple of years is over. A number of these names will not be on the roster in the fall.
I agree with your overall sentiment. I don't think Title IX was intended to deprive males of athletic opportunities. But the current strict interpretation has produced that end result. At least there aren't (yet) any men's teams on the chopping block at Bucknell.
