I'd consider it a challenge and have fun with it.
It could level the playing field a bit - teams who have spent years perfecting their transmissions would lose that edge over rookie teams.
The only way it'd be possible would be for FIRST to provide enough equipment in the KOP to make an underwater robot - waterproof seals, bearings, propellers, rudders, a waterproof hull, waterproof crimps (just in case)...

The fun part about it would be handling your robot capsizing, especially if they made us manage something above the water...

Man, FIRST could be evil with a water game.
