    That's not so bad. State's got a win against the I-A this year.

    Yea, that's all good and everything but the real test will come when people have to put their money where their mouth is. Hopefully we'll eventually get to that day.

    I think football at UNCC coulde be huge, IF, they can get into the right conference. Charlotte has always been the sleeper skool in the state, poised for greatness. And, it's easy on the athletes cuz the classes are much like community college.

    If South Florida can play at Raymond James Stadium, how come UNCC can't play at BOA Stadium :confused: ? ? ? Just sell the lower level seats for the short term.

    THE BOTTOM LINE: I think UNCC bigwigs like the guts to start a team. It will never be 'the right time'. I mean, where is the campus radio station that the school was going to start 10-15 years ago? Still waiting for that to develop :rolleyes: :rolleyes: . . .

    Please UNCC folks don't take this as a slight, but cranking up a football program and going into I-AA seems to me would be a great move. That division has their shit together.

    Who's taking it as a slight? I'd fucking love that. I'd rather be a player in AA ball than Duke - a team which wouldnt even be good in AA play. I think App would kill them.
