I played long ago, and then helped keep my former school's program going while an administrator there. They dropped it about the time I left, which was probably around the time most of the other state programs were dropped. I've got a son who is a senior in high school, so I had talked to many of the AD's at these schools last year asking if they might consider bringing back men's tennis. Several of them said they would love to, but all said they could not afford it. Would either have to add another women's sport, or drop some other men's sport. All these school's play men's golf, which is the sport that survived instead of men's tennis. The issue for any school wanting to bring back men's tennis, or start a program, is maintaining the title 9 balance. Assuming they are in balance in their total program before adding men's tennis, they are either going to have to add another women's program, or drop one of the existing men's programs. That's why almost no state schools bring it back.
