One would have to show, where interest in W soccer consistently surpasses interest in M soccer to make this psyuedo hurdle a viable roadblock.

I’m glad we don’t hold similar expectations for men’s and women’s basketball.

Besides the SBC conference schedule, the non-conference schedule would be a few games from the group of UAB, Memphis, Tulsa, Oral Roberts, SMU, UTA, SFA and Houston Christian.
Most D1 soccer schedules are around 15 games in September and October.
Compared to basketball, baseball and softball, this is nothing.

Can one subtract and then add?
There are several sports Men's soccer would out perform financially from the get go.
Authement showed how to shrink and add.
As much as I hate what he did by shutting down gymnastics, weightlifting, wresting and trampoline, softball out-performs them all combined. (financially that is)

From day one, Mens Soccer would generate more money than Volleyball, Women's Basketball, Golf, Men's Tennis, Women's Tennis, Men's Cross Country, Women's Cross Country.
From the start Men's Soccer would be the 5th highest revenue producer behind Football, Baseball, Softball and Men's Basketball.
