Wow, that’s a whole lot of math to give large schools an unfair advantage over small schools, but I digress...
In your scenario.... it completely discounts the potential for female football players. While not a ton of them, the number is growing. I believe it was South Adams that had the very good female kicker a year or so ago. So coaches would either fill their kicking rolls with female soccer players to keep their numbers down (if females don’t count), or schools wouldn’t want females at all because it would skew their overall numbers. Either way, Sounds like a Title IX issue.
