What's this?

Syracuse would be a good candidate.


But their demographic is 54% women. They have women's ice hockey today and the arena on campus where they play. And they of course have the War Memorial Arena in the city that the AHA hockey team plays in now.

Title IX becomes their challenge. They'd have to add women's programs to get a men's program. They could bring back women's swimming or add gymnastics or golf. It would just take money. But I think they should do these things to get baseball. The ACC is already established in baseball. With Minnesota playing in the NCAA tournament there is hope for northern teams like that.
