This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

No idea. Title IX is always the issue and it "easy" by Steelhop

For Utah because it is still majority male and someone willing to donate a ton of money to start the program. It would probably be tough for all 3 but at least Utah's decision can push them some. There is a reason why Michigan is the only P5 school to start a lacrosse program in the last - what 25 years - in overcoming Title IX. Something Utah didnt truly face.

I guess the issue for Stanford is that they already have a women's lax program so there isn't an offset on the female side that can offset the starting of a men's program.
