Growing the ACC

Further down there is a conversation about Duke’s scholarship situation and it’s brought up that you need a mandatory 6 teams in a conference to gain auto bids at NCAAs. The conversation moves to schools that used to have teams like BC, Cuse, Clemson, and ND. My question is do you think wrestling is in one of the best positions via Title IX to add teams? My opinion is with the institution of Women’s Wrestling as an NCAA emerging sport you could start more programs and stay in compliance with Title IX. You could reasonably hire two head coaches and split a staff between the two teams while practicing at the same time. I think the difficulties of it though are funds mainly in gear and travel but that would be the only real downside I can think of.

I felt from the get go that the ACC should have been the leaders in Women's -- HokieToph 02/09/2022 12:01PM

The other option is to add Army, Navy, Bucknell and Lehigh -- UpperQuad 02/08/2022 1:17PM

There won’t be any adding of teams just for wrestling. ** -- hokietony 02/08/2022 10:21PM

The Big 12 did for wrestling and Big 10 did for lacrosse -- UpperQuad 02/08/2022 11:22PM

I doubt academics would stop it for anyone that might seem attractive -- Pylons 02/09/2022 11:54AM

Let me clarify: "The ACC won't do it".** -- hokietony 02/09/2022 12:28PM

Ok. I read it the first time too. ** -- Pylons 02/09/2022 12:50PM

I think the acc should go ahead and add girls wrestling -- GreenvilleVT 02/08/2022 11:02AM

I don't know about adding women's wrestling -- Pylons 02/08/2022 11:58AM
