Question for next go ‘round, and I’m gonna take a sec to set this one up on the tee...

I know all that football talk made Michael’s heart and head hurt, but it has once again intrigued me. The conference “blow up” question spoke to how UNCW should be part of a conference that doesn’t have split loyalties with football. Why does UNCW avoid a football program. The student body has nearly doubled (I think) since I graduated in ‘06. The campus is huge in comparison now. The land isn’t a problem. Recruiting in NC wouldn’t be a problem. Startup cost would be. Travel, etc. is it time for UNCW to seriously weigh the pros and cons of starting a football team, instead of just dismissing the idea.

There are plenty of schools that have started programs in the last decade and been relatively successful. Not to mention the draw for alumni and just more general excitement and future alumni/donors for the school and Athletic Dept.

FCS football is by and large a money pit.
