I would put sand volleyball up there because of facilities and equipment costs. 

You don't need any facilities for equestrian. 

The people who are in equestrian can already afford to feed/stable their mounts, almost zero events are ever held at any school. 

North Texas is a huge horse breeding area, there are tons of venues that could be used without building anything.

I doubt NT would have to add any sports to offset baseball.  NT is already in a fairly strong position relative to Title 9.

To my knowledge, the NCAA has never acted against any program on a Title IX basis.  Individual lawsuits and threats to sue do happen, but I still think NT is in a good position.  

The primary problem with baseball, is the cost, not the cost of another woman's team.

NCAA -- No. Federal courts (via lawsuits) -- Yes.

If this is so why does UTSA have a baseball team?

I give, if it is not the cost of baseball; why doesn't NT have a team.  

Obvious, at least to me; it is a cost issue.

Wren & Co have prioritized other things over jumpstarting baseball, like the IPF.  Sucks, but it’s the right decision.

And the horses are usually donated.
