The best way to start a program is from scratch, can't go the route of Michigan and promote the club team and club coach. If I were a recruit, I would rather play for a big name assistant or proven head coach over a proven club coach. I know the guy at Michigan was instrumental at getting the program elevated, but I think he is in over his head as a head D1 coach. I could see Lville getting a top D1 coach to make the move starting up a new program.
It is funny that in women's lacrosse you can start a team and compete for titles in a handful of years but it has not been done in the men's game yet. I think a school like Lville could make it happen with the right moves.
