regarding your mischaracterization of what I said.
I would hate to see football “overrepresent” Matters list. Not represent.
He made it clear that his list was not the best 30 football players that played during his tenure, but the 30 best athletes, in any sport, that played from 1998-2020.
As a follower of several non revenue sports here, I would like to see those kind of sports get their due, as appropriate. I’d hate to see 75% of the list be football and MBB players. There have been some amazing athletes here from 1998-2020, and I’d like to see them get credit. Softball in particular deserves a 2nd and 3rd player on the list ahead of a 15th football player. Along with wrestling softball has been one of the most successful sports here for many of the years in his timeline.
