No, but it appears you have been.

I see that you can comprehend.

UWF is in Florida with a growing enrollment. Nothing is stopping UWF from becoming FCS if it they choose to do so in the next two years.

Kennesaw State can start a fundraising drive to obtain the money needed to build a stadium. Probably, would get support from the county or city.

Your shouts of never never belong in Neverland. Let's face it Panama, you are just a negative guy.

UWF should stay at the level they are at. I don't think they have any desire to move to FBS. They want to be an academics first school. They have a nice niche in division two, in that, there is a ton of lower tier local talent that is not Division 1 worthy. They can be a dominant power at the Division 2 level or move up and be mediocre. If they do decide to move up for some reason, I really don't think they would ever go beyond FCS.

I thought the goal of every school is academics first?

Pensacola and Mobile are sister cities and in friendly competition. Mobile has a an FBS team, so Pensacola will eventually push for an FBS team. Roughly 45 miles between each city.

Mobile County population - 414,515
Escambia County population - 313,258

Baldwin county is between Mobile and Escambia Counties - population 212,619

I meant that UWF has a mindset that football could divert focus from it's academic mission. I really don't see it moving up beyond FCS ever. I'm from Pensacola. There was a huge debate about whether to even add football in the first place. Division 2 is perfect for UWF.

Moving to the ASUN with Florida Tech and a couple of GSC buddies could help create a tight geography outside of Liberty and NJIT, could help get UNF and FGCU to pull the trigger to start football.
