Well, I have two problems.

One, very few boys' college sports teams actually make money. You can argue a lot about the details, but even at best, the only teams that make money are competitive basketball and football teams. So even if you want to talk about boys' sports making their money back, that's only a handful of teams. And they aren't actually the ones that suffer from Title IX. The beef with Title IX is that the unprofitable, less visible mens' sports, like wrestling or baseball, end up cut. The ones that bring in money I don't think ever really suffer.

Second, The underlying model of college sports you're basing your position on is way more fakakta than Title IX is. Why should collegiate athletics be based around how much money they bring in? Especially when we still have all the NCAA strictures and ideas about student-athletes and amateurism - if collegiate athletics are about enrichment and the glory of competition, why does it matter how much money they bring in?

On the other hand, if college athletics is basically a business for drawing revenue, why even have the connection to athletics at all? Just have the big money-earning football and basketball teams be separate entities owned by the colleges and giving revenue back to them and competing with other college-owned teams. And eliminate the requirements for athletes to be students, because why bother, if it's just a big sham. And then you can have actual amateur sport for men and women who are in college.

But it's not Title IX to blame for fucking up college athletics. College athletics is plenty fucked on its own.
