JP Talks D1 Expansion, PLL, and More - a podcast by Lacrosse All Stars

D1 expansion is one of, it not the most, talked about topics in all of lacrosse. JP joined the guys on this weeks pod to explain how it works.

What's the hold up?

No matter how bad we want teams to go D1, the sad truth is that for most schools it doesn't make fiscal sense. In fact, if you have a football team on campus adding a men's program becomes increasingly difficult. Having an exceptional club team like Michigan and Utah did wasn't the deciding factor, it was money. In Utah's case it took an actual multi-millionaire to help push the program through. Of course, he didn't do it alone, but lets not pretend this happens with out his help.

Utah was the latest Power 5 program to go D1

What's More Likely?

I asked JP straight up, "what's more likely to happen first, the addition of one power 5 men's team, or the addition of 5 mid majors". He swiftly answered 5 mid majors.
