Re: A new and better FBS thread
I think the the EWU report shows us that its NAIA or Nothing for EWU. One can not and I repeat can not come have revenue problems already at the FCS level and think that a jump to FBS is the logical solution to gain in revenue lost. That's like saying that you can't afford your 1500sqft house but decide to go try and buy a 5,000sqft house. NDSU doesn't have a revenue problem/shortage.

We may not now. But we will when the entirety of FCS is 30 teams from small schools with small aspirations. EWU is considered one of the stronger teams in FCS. If EWU can't make it, the division as we've come to know it is on its death knell, whether people at NDSU or JMU want to recognize that or not.

I the EWU report is a bit overblown as it was done for and by faculty that wanted to find fault in the athletic department.
The point still stands however: regardless of level, a school needs to commit to doing it the right way or else you are just burning cash.

NCAA needs to step in, redistribute funds from the big dog programs and fund all fbs programs evenly once ndsu moves up, provide an fcs like tournament jus to be fair. And redistribute recruits randomly to make it even. Utopia!

USC athletic director Mike Bohn said on a 24/7 Sports podcast his school will cancel a Sept. 4, 2021 game with Big Sky member UC Davis.
USC, UCLA and Notre Dame are the only FBS programs that have never played an FCS program.

Still waiting for the Duck buyout of our game, as predicted by you-know-who.
