small fish gotta stay in the small pond. If they try to compete with the big fish in the big pond they're gonna drown.
That's why we have div 2 and 3

Cal state Fullerton used to have a football team. they sucked.
Eventually the school figured it out and dumped the football team and kept the nationally ranked baseball and (sometimes good) basketball teams.
Problem with that is revenue.
How many people go to watch a baseball or basketball game? A lot less than go to watch football. And how many people see those games on TV? No one.


They would have been smarter to dump all collegiate sports EXCEPT men's football and focus on it until they got good. THEN they'd bring in the big bux.

But the protesters would have a field day with that.






Any maybe if schools didn't give away education to every minority and PO' people that walk through the door the rest of the students wouldn't have to pay 10x what it's worth.

You don't have to be an athlete to get a free edumacation, you just gotta be from the wrong side of the tracks.
