Still way to early but I will say it anyway. Not good to be in 3rd. Xavier and Georgetown are not even funded programs.

Edit: Xavier might be actually I have to check, but im pretty sure they are not funded.

Georgetown has a very large endowed scholarship for swimming. Facilities are rock-bottom, though. At least for now.

As someone who has had kids recruited both places. SHU has much more Male money than Georgetown. Their male money is almost non existent

This is true. At a place like Georgetown, however, where only 43% of students use financial aid, compared to SHU, where 83% do, money is oftentimes not an issue for parents of these prospective swimmers.

Also, not trying to be negative but BE swimming is pretty poor overall (that might actually be kind)
