Couldn't they just recruit some random women for the team? Get any chick of the street, the minimum number for them to produce a team, require them the minimum hours to train, give em a scholarship for their time, and boom, you have a team.

The school has more women then men, so sports have to reflect that in headcount and budgetary dollars.
Correct, they could open new womens facilities and offer new scholarships for women, or they can take them away for men. Wrestling is not a sport that makes schools a lot of money (none in most cases) so they choose not to expand womens sports, just contract the mens sports.
