UNCW Football

There is talk about bringing football to UNCW but nothing serious is in the works.  There are many reasons why there should or shouldn't be a football team here.  Many students and staff want football at UNCW yet we still don't have it.  Although the cost would be high, it would be well worth it.  The cost for a stadium, coaching staff, and players would be imense, but having a football team would make UNCW that much better and more attractive.  I personally would love going to games and rooting for my home team.  Football brings more diversity to the school as well, not to mention the amount of students who would get to come to UNCW on a scholarship.  In the long run it would be a great investment for the school, the school's popularity would grow with the addition of a football team as well as its school spirit.  Football has the power to create die hard fans who would represent the school well for generations to come.  It would also expand our athletic department creating more jobs for people in a time when jobs are scarce.  In conclusion UNCW would greatly benefit from starting a football program.
