The WCF Courier has been running articles on the value of athletics to UNI and today they printed an opinion piece on the value to the city and surrounding area. I thought the following was interesting:

Athletic Director Troy Dannen suggested UNI could explore a move up to the Football Bowl Subdivision. How such a move would affect UNI’s finances is uncertain. There would be potential for greater revenue from the football program, but also greater expenses from the additional scholarships that would be required. The college football landscape is rapidly changing and such a move should be immediately studied, as the opportunity for change may never be greater than in the next few years.
