A state school cutting sports. Not good.

[Bballfan]

Don't forget Gannon is looking to take over Ursuline. I really only think they want their nursing program.

I would be surprised if Ursuline...

[Bballfan]

I absolutely agree with you. A Power 4 school playing an FCS school does nothing but give the FCS school a paycheck. The games are boring, not competitive,...

[Bballfan]

You got that about the pyramid scheme. I would have to think at some point that gravy train has to end. There is increased pressure on the Power 4 to...

[Bballfan]

That makes sense, especially if the men are not going to have one either.

Surprised they wouldn't cut an assistant coach though and keep...

Agreed UIndy is in the right spot. Do you really want to compete with Butler and IUI in the same city? How many D1's does a city the size of Indianapolis...

[Bballfan]

Like any profession, there are bad actors. Doesn't matter what it is. Even the priesthood. So of course there are going to be some whack job coaches...

I think there is only two D2 schools left in Indiana. Purdue Northwest and UIndy. Strange in that state you are either NAIA, D3, or D1. A lot of good...

Program cuts are not good because you are disenfranchising athletes, some of who might otherwise not be able to afford college without significant debt....

Purdue Fort Wayne remains fully committed to competing at the highest level of NCAA Division I athletics.

I mean that isn't even possible...

Random was an Ashland University shirt showing up on a British actor in the TV show Ted Lasso. Makes you wonder how the wardrobe department even had...

[Bballfan]

Ferris and GV would have beat Kent State regardless the last couple years. Now, they wouldn't beat a number of the MAC schools, but if the SEC moves...

[Bballfan]

Pretty ridiculous. About as ridiculous as the writeup. LOL....

[Bballfan]

Correct. But that doesn't mean the program will get any better :). As a MAC school they are the best example of why the whole football part of the conference...

[Bballfan]

I guess he figured Kent State football was a step down from Grand Valley (which it is). Awful program that couldn't beat Saint Francis PA last year....

[Bballfan]

Agreed. Fort Hayes State is an upgrade from Gannon. In terms of facilities, support, etc. Location. Not the greatest, but give me a public university...
