Western Kentucky is the most recent school to jump to FBS from FCS, and due to the recently imposed NCAA moratorium on divisional shifts, it will stay that way for a few years. This article quotes WKU AD as saying that the two most common themes among schools that have successfully made the transition are 1) not playing too many paycheck games and 2) not relying on the athletics budget to fund stadium and facilities improvements. Just food for thought for those of us who'd like to see PSU make the jump some day.
