It was discussed last year as the the giants cited our lack of indoor facility as a factor in them not returning. We need something. The bubble is a waste of space. At the very least they need to put down field turf in the bubble. Lacrosse and football need it badly. I believe a field house is part of the facilities master plan. Who knows when that will happen though.

Cutting any women's sports is a non-starter. That only exacerbates the Title IX issue that having full scholarship football creates. I would think baseball and men's soccer would be the first to go if anything had to go. Morbid thinking though. Lets hope we keep filling the stadium and using that additional revenue to offset the increased costs. If we cut BOTH men's and women's soccer wouldn't that be a wash as far as Title IX is concerned? And would save about 20 schollies plus expenses; more overall savings than just cutting baseball?? Not going to happen. The stadium was built on the premise of it being a multisport facility. I'm not sure that will matter 2-3 years from now. Plus lets play 2 or 3 lacrosse games on it a year and it's still multi-sport. I'm not advocating for it. More sports the better as long as we're not sacrificing on our bread and butter sports (basketball, football, lacrosse and T&F).

No, there isint a lot of time to waste with the JMU job sitting out there. Rossomundo or Keeler and I have to think Keeler would jump at the chance to gop to JMU. JMU is looking at major BCS coordinators for their job. I'm also pretty sure they're probably negotiating a move to an FBS conference right now which is what they're selling to FBS coordinators.
