And a look through the hometowns of Duke and UNC and Wake Forest players gives you a long list of Maryland and New England cities, plus Canada and Europe.
Looking at the NCAA's list of sports in which they have championships, the only sports listed that aren't on the OSU list are Water Polo, Beach Volleyball, and Bowling. OSU most certainly has a bowling team and I think they have at least partial scholarships so I'm not sure why they aren't on the OSU athletics dept website.
A lot of the HBCUs have bowling. Rumors in the ACC are that Beach Volleyball is the next thing. I believe the two Florida schools have it, but I'm hearing rumors that a bunch of other schools are looking at adding it.
I checked the California rosters and the public schools (Cal and UC Davis) had an impressive majority of Californians, with a handful of Europeans. Stanford, on the other hand, seems to be all New Jersey and England.
Of course they could. Others as well - Texas, Washington, Clemson, Florida, others. What I don't get is why. Sure it cuts into the profit margin from football a bit but it solves some other problems and is comparatively cheap. As for bowling, it's complicated. Going from memory because I don't care enough about friggin bowling, the NCAA sanctions a women's championship only, consisting of ten or twelve teams chosen God knows how and all Divisions (ie. I., II and III) compete together on a equal basis. Schools like Ohio State treat it as a club sport since as far as I know it's not actually sanctioned or treated like a regular NCAA sport. I think the bottom line is that it's complicated and, frankly, who cares? No disrespect intended but any activity that is generally associated with sucking on a Budweiser between frames isn't really intercollegiate sport.
OSU has it as a club sport though they play other colleges. I guess the billiards and chess teams are a bridge too far. I was in the rock climbing club when at OSU and we got our money from the student government rather than the athletics dept. So that's probably how they draw the line between sports and activities.
My dinky little sub-1000 student population private university wanted to add a men's wrestling team while I was there, and added a women's bowling team to off-set. Since most of my friends were graduating on time, and I knew I'd have to come back for a fifth year (don't change your major halfway through your senior year, kids...shit's expensive), I joined. And this is super accurate. We were pretty routinely getting thrashed by Wichita State, University of Kansas, etc. Well, I got a $500 scholarship and Academic All-American honors for my "athletic" endeavors, so I guess I care a little bit.
