LV needs slots with college hockey logos on the wheels instead of cherries, etc. 3 Sun Devils would pay more than 3 Fighting Hawks which would pay less than 3 Gophers.

Re: UNLV to go D1
That last $12 million is the toughest to get though, because they've probably already exhausted all the likely sources of donation. Minnesota State Moorhead held a big press conference five years ago saying they had a pledged $15 million towards towards their goal of $37 million for a hockey program. I think they maybe got another $1 million pledged after the announcement before giving up the project. Millions of dollars easier to find in Vegas than Moorhead, Minnesota, but that's still a very hefty amount of money for anyone.

Which part? Women's lax ability to generate $$$ or Vegas' ability to support a team?

I would guess they are talking about the first part because no one associated with UND would bother to read any farther once they reached the word "revenue". That's really all they worry about when it comes to hockey.

In other words, exactly the same as the other 2400-odd US colleges who do not sponsor varsity hockey.
Show me the money.
