hard can it  be?

Given  that NU has a baseball alumnus who is the current manager of the New 
York  Yankees and has had numerous other major and minor league players 
over the  last 20 years, elimination of the baseball program appears to be an  
overreaction to any recent struggles.

Looking at the  baseball team's dismal record to date, which isn't much 
different from prior  years, why not drop baseball as a varsity sport and start 
up a men's lacrosse  program. If you want to start slowly start it up as a 
club sport. A friend of  mine who has been involved with lacrosse for years 
tells me that Michigan is  about to start up lacrosse a a varsity sport 
after having had a club program.  This same person played for Michigan State 
which later dropped it for title IX  reasons. His opinion is that Northwestern 
would likely do well and could feed  off of the success of the women's 
program.
