Do y'all think JSU will ever get any new sports like lacrosse or swimming (just an example)? Also I know our budget currently doesn't allow it but do y'all think we will ever get custom buses that our athletic teams ride on like this?

View AttachmentI could see lacrosse as a possibility one day. Probably Women's lacrosse. We no longer have a facility for swimming so no to that. We won't do the buses and we shouldn't. A lot better uses for the money. (NIL, enhancing other facilities.)

Couldn't the rec do swimming?
You're probably right but it would still be really cool if we did have our own buses especially since the ones that we do currently use seems to always break down 😂

I haven't seen the rec center in person, but from the pictures on the internet it does not appear to be designed for competitive swim.

We apparently have a club swim team.
Also mens soccer?
Did rugby die off?

I really hope we get a lacrosse team because I enjoy watching that on TV

We apparently have a club swim team. Also mens soccer? Did rugby die off? We've gotta keep Title IX in mind when adding sports. If we add men's scholarships in a new sport, we have to add an equal number of women's scholarships. It's much cheaper to add one sport, so if we get a new team, it'll most likely be a women's sport.

There is an Olympic size pool at McClellan. I used to be a member there and would see signs about a swim team that worked out there. I don’t think they have diving facilities.
The only CUSA sports we don’t sponsor are men’s indoor and outdoor track.

No to more funding for new sports. Yes to more funding for existing sports.

People seem to be looking for Mens Polo. A new ag center with horses and polo grounds would be nice. Do a coed team and offer mens and womens polos.

A lot better uses for the money. (NIL, enhancing other facilities.) Correct about buses. Much more cost effective to charter. Most people just think about the bus cost. What happens when it breaks down?. Don't forget about employees to drive them and their salaries and benefits. I am not sure, but I think the football team 18 Wheeler is donated

Could part of the charter contract require some or all buses have JSU wraps?
