It isn’t responsible building fancy athletic facilities and funding 63 scholarships to compete in a small college conference.
A successful UM athletic program is one of the cogs in the recovery of the University as a place to go. You were here when no on cared and how much fun that was. Being in the Skyline Conference might have been notable, but it wasn't much fun getting trucked week after week. Time to shed the troglodyte coat and get on board with RTD, even if it's small college and the BSC. Maybe we need to have lunch again so I can swat it into your head. lol
Even though I have jabbed you about small college a few times, my view is that FCS, Big Sky conference, and UM football are hardly small college. They are big time football. Not P5, but still big time. The top teams in FCS can compete with and knock the bottom half or so of FBS, and sometimes knock off some in the top half. I love watching and following the Griz. I love our guys, and coaches. They should be very proud and satisfied that they compete at this high level. Many UM players could play at the FBS level and some even at the P5 level.
I agree that UM needs RTD. I am confident that Hauck et al will get them there fairly soon.
If major realignment or other big chances occur in college football, I am all in favor of being prepared and looking at what comes. And deciding to do whatever makes sense at the time. Go Griz.
