I like starcity2's math. He took a poll of about a hundred people and converted those percentages of who would buy tickets to quantify the revenue earning potential. It seemed like there were only a few people that were lacrosse savvy on the board. I think they should crawl before they walk. Get the club prgram up and running and test pilot against a talented team. Give that a shot and see what kind of crowd you draw. It's definitely food for thought as more schools in the upper midwest convert to D-1

What's wrong with that? Clearly the percentage of people from a self-selected sample answering an online poll will exactly match the population in general, right? There's no possible source of bias. That whole "random sample" thing is for losers. :D

Or the fact that it is a student message board. Surely his figues reflect what the community, neighboring states, and continent as a whole would do
