I think you nailed it as well, your location and the conference make a start up team for Lacrosse even more difficult then it would be for say a Michigan/Marquette etc.  I still think Lville can eventually field a competitive team as they appear to be pretty successful at most major mens programs, at least the ones most people follow Bball, football, (baseball ?).  As I noted before Michigan started a full Div 1 schedule this year after a ton of success as a club program the past decade and didnt even win a game.  Its a tough road to go down and as we have both noted, starting out in the ACC is like starting a new Div 1 football program joining the SEC.  
 
 Still I will be interested to see how Lville handles it and who they get to coach.  My biggest concern would be recruiting, the Lax hot beds are all pretty much in the NE even though Lacross is expanding across the country, the NY,NJ, Long Island, Maryland areas are still by far the best recruiting grounds.  With the traditional powers like Syracuse, UVA, Hopkins, Maryland and a few others doubling down on recruiting due to the new additions to D1 and some of them having down years its going to be very tough compete at the top level without a lot of patience.  Sounds though like you really get it so hopefully your fellow LVille fans will as well.
