Manhattan has been historically bad, but they do have a new coach and it looks like he is aggressively recruiting. I have heard the facilities arent so great, but I have heard they have a very good engineering program. Campus is in a weird spot and I can only speculate but I would imagine a lot of Long Island kids dont want to be that close to home.

I have always wondered why Fordham doesnt have D1 lax, would be a perfet fit for them. They do have decent basketball and football and they have great facilities and I would think with their academic reputation they would be able to recruit reasonably well. I think they would be a perfect fit for the Patriot or America East conference. Again the title 9 thing is probably the principal reason they dont have it, although they do have a club program.
