Bombshell from a playoff team. Fla Tech drops football. It is however a private school. But, for a program to start in 2013, they made the national playoffs in the GSC twice in seven years. Far more than the PSAC privates. Who knows what else will happen as we approach the end of the fiscal year. If it can happen to them, programs without much success should be on the alert. Stunning.

Interesting, the president that started football there, was the same one who started Florida Atlantic. What a difference. He's not there anymore. Maybe there has been mismanagement and they used football as an excuse.

I remember there being some reported mismanagement earlier. Sometimes when schools explode they make crap hires and the focus on growth overshadows the poor performance that doesn't show up on the budget update.Cal U (Pa.) Class of 2014

FIT is the second Florida private school to drop football in the last six months. Jacksonville State (private, D-1 non-scholarship football program) shut down last November. The FIT-UWF rivalry was a good game that was gaining some momentum. That leaves UWF as Florida's only D2 program. Wishing the best for FIT.....
