More on the CWA's misperceptions: at the UConn board, Phil says the Committee "seems to be under the impression that a practice is nothing more than a five-on-five scrimmage, with everyone not part of the scrimmage sitting doing nothing."

At the Big 12 board, fans discuss how the men are used at Oklahoma and Baylor practices. Conclusion: using men does not mean that backups just sit and watch. As Spooky says:

It's one thing for the committee to have reached an unpopular opinion, but for them to arrive there with such an obvious lack of research or information is embarrassing. I'd be really curious how many practices with male players they have attended between them.

(Lemme hazard a guess: fewer than ten, with zero being the most likely number.)
