And, of course, we are on the Ferris end of this in basketball. I've seen 1,000 teams die before the first tip in the KCAC.

When you finally come, I will personally arrange Nap's for the victory party. My treat.
I'm hoping the Pee Sack Tournament will be close enough this year for me to go....since the East will host. I'm hoping Walk On U wins the East but I guess ESU is the big east team so far...

The only men's sports at GV that are fully funded for scholarships are football and basketball. Every other men's sport is operating below the maximum due to not enough money. But football gets the most press, so if your school can't offer the full allotment of scholarships in every sport, they damn well better make sure football is the one they fully fund, or else they're just bad at their job.
Basketball has taken the lead at IUP as the marquee sport.

There's a reason Joe makes $55k more a year than Tort.
Just sayin'
Until Joe retires, he's the man at IUP.

Also, GV absolutely does not have a nice gym. It is not even a good high school gym.2021 D2Football Fantasy Champion

I never said anything about that. But being good at D2 basketball doesn't get you nearly the same amount of publicity as being good at D2 football. That's a fact. NW Missouri basketball has been the best in the country for what, a decade now? And it still doesn't get nearly the publicity as NW Missouri's football team who hasn't won anything in the same time frame.
Also, GV absolutely does not have a nice gym. It is not even a good high school gym.
The common perception (outside of this board) is this is glorified high school. We know that's not true, but the general public could care less about D2.

IUP is a great basketball school with a better than average football program. It’s not a bad deal really. It could be a great cross country school with a better than average softball team.

So basically IUP has decided to hitch their wagon to hoops instead of the turf. If that trend was reversed, would IUP have the money to be a fully funded D2 football program?
