Re: Jacksonville Discontinues Football
Interesting twist for the players:
"The University is offering full tuition scholarships to every football student-athlete who chooses to stay at Jacksonville University until graduation."
"The University has participated in the non-scholarship Pioneer Football League since 1998."
Nice of them not to screw the players in terms of academics.

I don't its odd that they are getting continued scholarships. UND did it for its discontinued programs a few years back, and I would bet the UNO did it when they discontinued
their football program also.

All non scholarship schools offer financial assistance. So now it probably needed to be called a scholarship just because.
