The fact that my state school (Rutgers) gets ~140m a year, and can expect taxpayers and tuition to cover any loses they garner doing that, to cosplay a D1 football school is nuts. Half the school is Indian and asian and couldn't give less of a shit about football - give us like 1% of that budget for a funded cricket team and we'd demolish.
The issue would be finding other NCAA Schools to play cricket against
Sounds like a national championship to me!
It would be affirmative action for south asians just like squash and crew is affirmative action for WASPs.
... and lax and swimming...
Maybe they can start with Princeton.
