Cinci does have great facilities... their stadium was just a hole in the ground back at the beginning of CUSA, but check it out now.

Cinci also thought about dropping football. I've got a buddy who is a big Cinci fan and told me about their ordeal while we were fighting.

Definitely wouldn't have ever known had you not mentioned it. I couldn't find anything about that when I searched. Was it a long time ago? I couldn't see them ending the program because the Big East dissolved or something like that.

Probably before CUSA when they were an indy.

We definitely have the people on the committee who could help plan a "varsity village" like Cinci has: http://www.gobearcats.com/facilities/var...llage.html
