RE: D-I commuter schools
According to this list from US News and Report, Weber State has only 4% of its 25,000 student body living on campus. All the schools that are 100% commuter are not Division 1.

One thing I noticed was the large percentage of commuters at Boise State. Whenever I see expansion discussions I always see people critical of Houston, Memphis, Cincinnati, etc. for being "Commuter Schools" yet I rarely ever hear this criticism of BSU. This is quite interesting because both Cincinnati and Houston have over 20% of its students living in campus owned housing.

Funny thing is, I saw the topic of this thread and immediately wondered why anybody would pick a fight with Houston in the Sports Bar.

This is entirely irrelevant, but Faber College is modeled after Dartmouth, but presumably exists in Tennessee (there's a Tennessee state flag during the school hearing scene). I know that's not at all relevant to what you posted, but I saw "Faber" in your schools that you root for section and thought that I would share.

IMHO, UC's problem is money. You guys don't make enough of it, and that's honestly a shame because your "on the field" results warrant P5 inclusion.

It will be interesting to see the revenue UC generates this year. As you know we renovated the football stadium adding significant premium seating, luxury boxes, etc. If we are able to add a few million more to the coffers from the stadium every year it will be great.

True.

I think that UC's revenue problems are two fold: 1. There's limited space and 2. Ohio State.
