Paul, easy big fella. Geek said my bad.
I just met with the wrestling people. ASU wrestling had the distinct advantage of having just done a capital campaign to build a new facility 3 years ago. They knew where their money was, and was able to mobilize quickly. Wrestling as a sport has been aware of their risk longer than swimming and is more prepared as a sport.
My words of wisdom, to everyone who wants college swimming to survive, are "look to your endowments" even a partial endowment would have made it tough to cut us. A history of giving would have been good.
We will get there, but we do need our big hitter. Are you out there?
