Women's lacrosse is a good sport to offset some of the FBS football scholarships. Off the top of my head, very few schools offer all 3 - I think it's pretty much Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, and Michigan. Those are probably 4 of the top 10 athletic departments in the country. UConn just doesn't bring in the revenue that those schools do. And, Penn State added hockey with a massive donation from the owner of the Buffalo Bills and Sabres. UConn doesn't have donors like that. [/QUOTE]
