I can say without a doubt that the '92 Regents vote was our defining moment, but we voted to keep football.

What would have changed? Would we have invested what was left after the $6M+ budget cut obligation into basketball?

Would we have exploded back onto the national scene?

Or would we have slid into obscurity after a bad coaching hire or two (assuming in this "butterfly effect" scenario cutting the football program affected many other things at the school in unforeseen and intangible ways)?

Would we just have become the next ETSU?

Who can say. There are some folks here who'd have a pretty good guess but not me
