Time to add M/W HOCKEY to a official sports Level.

[crazzymark]

The program is getting recruits nationally and have a great home ice venue .(Downtown Bloomington Arena) As well, ISU needs to add W/M Lacrosse, W Equestrian and W Field Hockey. Due to Prop 9, Men's Soccer is not going to happen.... that sucks because Soccer is going to be the #1 sport to the college age students soon. Well maybe Woman's Lacrosse only and adding W Rugby will allow M Soccer to happen. All about numbers.....

Took $102 million to establish Penn St hockey and become instantly competitive. Fun sport but outrageously expensive to establish at the D1 level.

This.

Plus, I don't wanna jump in with the "all is lost" fire Lyons crowd, but geez, let's get our main deal (altho I don't mean to slight our FB program) straightened out before we jump into a new winter sport with no natural rivals that will be playing off-campus, etc. etc.
