I know, I know, it's not apples to apples - this is D3. But it's a REINSTATE just like HU, and don't dare tell me that a small private D3 in my tiny hometown area in southwestern VA can raise the 7 figure funds to do it, and this great University can't. Yep, it will take more money, but this is a bigger school in a much bigger region.
The point is, it CAN be done, and IS being done, even in this tumultuous landscape. And not only football, but they have the vision for the accompanying cheer AND marching band, which I think are necessities for a football program - brings more bodies, atmosphere, funds, fans, etc.
Anyway, thought this was cool to share. And I'm excited for them, got lots of Maroon alum friends - they have a very strong D3 mens lax program, I'm sure this will be a relative success as well.
VISION. I know it's a long shot, I get it, but mainly I'm looking for HU to really show and prove we have one for the challenging future ahead.
