    It sounds like the Board will be approving to add Men's Lacrosse as a Division I sport tomorrow morning. According to the agenda, they've allotted 10 minutes for the discussion, so it should be pretty heated. I'd rather have men's track to get us some more burners for the football team. Maybe this will attract better linebackers.

    Or men's soccer or men's hockey to get us a sport that is actually watchable and is not just a place for rich white kids whose parents wouldn't let them play football.

    What a waste of scholarships.

    There's some chatter about this all being pushed by some big donor. Travel expenses alone are going to be pretty stiff since all of the teams are on the East coast.

    Isn't there a booster who's basically footing the bill for this? I thought that was why we were getting LAX.

    Apparently this is being pushed by David Neeleman.

    It still takes men's scholarships away through Title IX, right? Still hurts our chances of adding better sports.
