Would be a more sensible decision for the university than playing FCS football. My view has always been, try indy for a while and see what happens, especially now that the program has straightened out. If we fall down, scheduling is terrible and the program falls apart again, then fine, give up and drop the sport.

If the fanbase hates the idea of FCS, the marketing value is actually negative for a school that competes with BSU, and it costs a ton of money then why do it?

Because the alternative is going back to Zombie WAC and putting your athletes on 4-hour bus rides to Edinburg, Texas after they've flown all the way to San Antonio, and sending them to Chicago State where they'll start thinking they're not in Division I anymore.

You're assuming the Big Sky kicks us out if we drop football? Fun fact -- according to the Expedia I just checked, it takes the same amount of time to fly commercial from Pullman to McAllen, TX as it does to fly to Flagstaff.

That's not how I'd get to Flagstaff, but this isn't a frequent traveler website, so no point in arguing that.

The BSC doesn't have any members without a football team. Unless UI has already been told they are still in even if they drop football, I wouldn't assume that.
