Griz til I die said:How in any way is SHSU ready to make the move? I don’t think their stadiums big enough.
Probably more important is how many women's sports are sponsored at each institution for when Title IX requires that the new increased total for FBS scholarships is also met with equal scholarship numbers for women.
For example, UM offers 8 sports while MSU only offers 7 sports (UM uniquely has softball and soccer while MSU uniquely has skiing). And really, I doubt skiing has even close to the amount of scholarships that soccer or softball have. Plus, UM already has the facilities for those costlier sports covered. So, MSU is definitely lagging in that aspect.
In comparison, Sac State, while also being near more population, sponsors 11 women's sports. Sam Houston State sponsors 9.
