I laugh when people say, hey, just jump up to FCS. You'll suck, but do it anyway. If you want to know how the game is played, check out Saturday's FCS semi-finals at Bozeman on Saturday, which is the biggest sporting event in state history, easily. It's Montana vs. MSU. Tickets are going for $675, more than A & M's first round playoff tickets.
If you want to be a player in FCS, you can average 25K a game like Montana, or 22K a game like MSU. You can build multi-million dollar facilities like both schools. Or you can just say, hey, we're D2, we should be FCS in our 7K stadium and 5K crowds. OK, do it, have fun. EWU doesn't win anymore in the Big Sky when they used to win big and won a national title. Why? Because FCS -- like a lot of college football -- has grown. EWU has an 8K stadium and draws 5K a game . MSU and UM amped up things. EWU as well as Portland State, Northern Colorado, Idaho, Idaho State, Weber State, and the rest of the Big Sky, can't keep up. UC Davis a little bit. Weber just hired a high school coach as their head coach.
You can just join, have fun with that. But you won't go anywhere.
