Kennesaw State to FBS

[HelenaHandBasket]

In what universe are teams LEAVING the MWC or pac 12 to play with a bunch of FCS move ups?

Some of the bottom dwellers probably would, just to have a chance to win a game.

It would be a big no because money >>>>>>> wins.

This. So much this.

People talk about "how much money it will take" to move to the fbs level. The truth is, even shitty teams are going that route because that's where all the money is MADE.

Exactly.

There have been three or four people that talk about how much more it would cost UM to move to FBS. There has been little mention of the additional revenue.
It would be helpful to see an exact comparison, possibly an analysis prepared by the UM administration. I’m unaware if such a review exists, but it should.

Kind of a joke to see this, once again we sit here twiddling our thumbs/sitting on our ass while other teams move up. We need to be a hell of alot more proactive then we are now.

I agree, however, the naysayers continue to bring up the additional cost involved. One mentioned 10 Million a year. If this is correct, then we could be mired in the B league forever.

Start by increasing student athletic fees. Then recruit, recruit, and recruit some more to continue to growing the student body to get back to 2011 enrollment numbers.

I don't see how it would be that much more expensive, travel (if we got into the MWC) would be similar to what we have in the Big Sky now, we'd still sell out most if not all games, payday games against P5 schools and most importantly more money from being FBS.

Scholarships would add quite a bit

Create an FBS conference with
UM
MSU
SDSU
NDSU
Colorado
Colorado St
Weber
Wyoming
Boise St
Utah St
Nevada
Idaho
EWU
Sac St

Sac St to NDSU is 1371 miles by AIR. What the hell, include Northern Arizona for the hell of it. Put these places on a map. Now tell me your thoughts.

You need to put down the pipe. UM would be a bottom feeder in every FBS conference including C-USA, at least for a little while. They need to stay in their lane and ply for the JV participation trophy and welfare check at the end of the season.

And just like that, you have zero credibility.

Lol there are only three or four posters on egriz who have any credulity at all, Payton, Vim, Brint,…mmmmm yeah that’s about it. The rest are frozen in time.
