It is a big deal for any team to drop football or leave division 1. Eastern maybe should, it isn't working and hasn't been working. Most unsuccessful colleges are going to tough it out, it is a prestige thing. Your university is looked in a different light if it has a football team. Football in many ways is used as an advertising vehicle for the school.

Bowling Green spent $21M as an FBS school.
I think its easier to maintain lower infrastructure costs than to cut them. The scholarship and athlete-support budget is fairly small compared to the whole, and thus doesn't offer much savings.Last edited by Wild Hoss; April 26, 2016, 12:24 PM.

Here is a timely article on U of Idaho's consideration of dropping to FCS.
Interesting to note that the article states that its never been done before, whereas programs have generally chosen to close down their football programs.
