Kinda depressing. Especially when you throw in those from NYS, LI and NJ and the rest of New England.

I'm assuming UConn Men's Lax would play in the Big East as things stand today.
Big East Men's Lacrosse:
1. Denver
2. Georgetown
3. Marquette
4. Providence
5. St. John's
6. Villanova
Big East Women's Lacrosse: (currently includes UConn)
1. Cincinnati
2. Connecticut
3. Florida
4. Georgetown
5. Marquette
6. Temple
7. Vanderbilt
8. Villanova
Conference Realignment would seem to only make the B1G or ACC as possibilities other than the Big East. Here is the current breakdown of teams sponsoring lacrosse:
Big Ten Men's Lacrosse:
1. Johns Hopkins
2. Maryland
3. Michigan
4. Ohio State
5. Penn State
6. Rutgers
Big Ten Women's Lacrosse:
1. Johns Hopkins (as of 7/1/16)
2. Maryland
3. Michigan
4. Northwestern
5. Ohio State
6. Penn State
7. Rutgers
ACC Men's Lacrosse:
1. Duke
2. North Carolina
3. Notre Dame
4. Syracuse
5. Virginia
ACC Women's Lacrosse:
1. Boston College
2. Duke
3. Louisville
4. North Carolina
5. Notre Dame
6. Syracuse
7. Virginia
8. Virginia Tech
Everyone assumes that UConn Men's LAX would land in the Big East right out of the gate if they were ever to make the jump. That would be our easiest path the schools existing relationship with the conference Women's LAX and Field Hockey, but why wouldn't UConn be a logical choice as the 7th B1G LAX school?
Sure, it's not a full membership, but it's a foot in the door at least. With Hopkins as a B1G LAX member the precedent is there for a one-sport only membership. Meanwhile, the B1G gets entry into talent-rich CT and New England.
Just a thought.
And also a much bigger fish in the sport. Having JHU along with Maryland brings instant credibility to the new conference.I'm not sure how well that precedent applies with Hopkins, since they don't have any other sports that could even play in the B1G. Lacrosse is their only D1 sport.

UConn does get you into the recruiting ground, however that doesn't seem to be an issue for the higher tier schools.

All good points RE: JHU.
One thing that also jumps out at me is how can you have a 5-6 team conference in any sport? That's kind of ridiculous when you think about it. Assuming you get a home-and-home with every team, that is at most 8-10 conference games a season. As a player that would drive me nuts knowing that 1-2 bad losses during conference play could completely cost you the title.

Not absolutely sure why you felt the need to state the obvious, but I have my suspicions.
Here was my observation of you on May 15, 2015 -
I think you're an troll. Shove your posts up your ass.
