The whole concept to go to D-1AA (FCS) in the start was the notion there was a nitch here for that level given the rich recruiting ground the front range is, it is a valid argument, but again UNC went into it with out funding or commitment to fund to the level to be successful. We got away with it two times earlier while crawling out of the RMAC, GMAC, and into the NCC but the step to the BSC was way too big to fake it this time.

This is starting to look dismal, and terminal. Apparently there is no hope of funding this program to be competitive, they are just happy being a doormat in football in exchange for saying they are D-1.

I remember Coach Dalton was against the move because he believed UNC would not properly fund the move.
We competed with 42 scholarships until the Big Sky made UNC get to full scholarship level for 1-AA at 63. He has been proven to be correct. UNC has become, since the move a team that would be middle of the road or lower D2 level team while NDSU and SDSU have become top performers at 1-AA and some of our other former NCC members are competing at the top of D2. Wonder how much lower we have to go before changes are made?
