Exclamation RE: UWF continues to make advances
I think Georgia State was playing an independent Div II/FCS schedule when it actually received an invite.

We were in the CAA.

Look dude, I will make two bold statements I will not look up to validate the veracity of....

1) No school without a football team has ever received an invite to an FBS conference.

2) No Division II school has ever received an FBS conference invite.

So...that leaves Kennesaw. And under current rules imposed by the BOR in Georgia you have to have cash in hand to do any building project in athletics. They have none.


So that eliminates your entire list. I think we are done here.

So UWF will never get cash to build athletics from Georgia? 04-chairshot

Last time I checked, Kennesaw State is FCS.

Serious question.

Have you ever been diagnosed as having a learning disability?

UWF is Division II
Kennesaw is in Georgia

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.

Can this thread and all future treads about UWF and Kennesaw joining the Sun Belt be moved to a smack board or the spin room.

NCAA men's basketball first round:

#2 West Florida (28-3) . 73
#7 Barry (20-8) ........... 90

Kennesaw State plays in a 8300 seat pre existing stadium that's is usually 1/4 to 1/2 full. They have not been able to raise funds for a football building much less expand their stadium to FBS standards. They are what GSU was accused of being for so many years, a commuter school. Students go to school and go home. They are where we were in about 1992. If you're averaging 2k butts in seats you're not going to FBS in a decade if ever.

West Florida would seem to be even more insurmountable. They would have to move to FCS which they do not seem to be trying to do and then to FBS. If you havek money which they do not appear to have, you can fast track that in maybe 10 years. They have no stadium. They would have to basically decide to invest what, $100M they don't have over the next decade to become an FBS program nobody is asking for but you.

I am sure that these schools will make it to FBS by 2035 at which point you will declare victory.

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.

Why?

UWF has 12k students and a 5k football stadium. And Division II. Let them move up at the right pace to FCS and let the natural steps occur.

FGCU has 15k students and no football and I don't see the SBC reaching out for extra BBall only schools.


Plus UWF is 2 hours from Troy and South Alabama and a recruiting ground for both.

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

UWF, KSU, UNF, FGCU - SBC comparison

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.

FCS football for UWF is totally feasible. Any talk of FBS football needs to be put on hold until they have established themselves at the FCS level and even then, FBS play may never be feasible.

So both of your Florida schools would have to grow a lot to get to Sun Belt average.

Never a reason to add a school just because they are higher than the lowest member - ULM is underfunded for FBS as it is. You want to STRENGTHEN a league, not add more bottom feeders

Your enrollment numbers are wrong.

...and you are still quite insane. Is nobody going to say anything about FloridaJag answering a 21 month old post? LOL.

Have you ever been diagnosed as having a learning disability?

UWF is Division II
Kennesaw is in Georgia

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

UWF, KSU, UNF, FGCU - SBC comparison


Texas State enrollment - 38,661
Kennesaw State enrollment ~ 38,000
Georgia State enrollment - 34,284

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.
