In reply to: DFW HOYA 's message, "Why doesnt FU upgrade? Money. Villanova loses $2-3M a year in the A-10 despite an attendance base 50% more than that of Fordham. The CAA will not expand beyond 12 at this point.**" on 10:32:38 04/23/05 Sat

Two questions: Why would the CAA need 13 teams? And why would Fordham dump its rivalries with Georgetown and Holy Cross for Hofstra and Maine?** (NT) DFW HOYA 17:07:55 04/23/05 Sat

The CAA will ultimately go to 14 teams and will be the top 1-AA full scholarship league in the country. And we won't drop Georgetown and Holy Cross - we will continue to play both but we pick up William and Mary, Richmond, Villanova and Delaware plus we have a shot at a national championship with full scholarships. That's a helluva deal. (NT) -- Rambacker, 18:20:35 04/23/05 Sat

Many schools have handled this fairly easily - generally it's addressed by a combination of dropping a couple of lesser men's teams and adding a women's team or two. Adding Women's Lacrosse would do the trick. (NT) -- Rambacker, 12:46:00 04/25/05 Mon
