Men's lacrosse?

Strictly speculation on my part, as I haven't heard anything to that effect. What is not speculation, however, is that St. Bonaventure plans to add men's lacrosse in 2019. That will bring the number of full A10 members playing men's lacrosse to four: UMass (currently plays lacrosse in CAA), Richmond (SoCon), and St. Joe's (NEC). Seems to me that with those numbers, it makes sense for the A10 at least to explore the possibility of adding men's lacrosse. Of course, they'll need an AQ bid to make it worth their while, but Cleveland State (independent, just completed first year as D1 program) and Detroit (currently playing lacrosse in the MAAC) might make sense as affiliate members.

Thoughts?
