Kind of like an RN for sports?

No.

How does this impact the usage of the AL? Is hoops moving to this new facility?

That would make sense to me, but the tie in to the Bucks made me wonder about the teams sharing a practice facility for hoops.

Not trying to irritate you MUMac, but I am interested as this seems like it would be a new major for MU.
Would this be like a physicians assistant for the sports world?

I am not getting irritated and did not intend to give that impression. Probably closer to a PA, but still not completely comparable. Let's just say, you have to make an appointment to see them.

You didn't get the impression, but I figure I could look it up but thought I'd take the easy way out and ask.

Either way, sounds like it will need to be a new major for MU.
