Lehigh, Colgate and Lafayette have had some great wins OOC in the not-to-distant past. Imagine what would happen if the PL offered full scholies, not need based. There now are many blogs on this topic and I hope, really, really hope the PL will see the benefits and not wait till FU is gone to do it (a la basketball). I have heard G-town may not ante-up, but I hope they do. I think most at Colgate will see this as an opportunity to move the PL up, that FU has forced the issue. I would like to see Fordham stay in the PL, but without scholies the program would wallow and would be fodder for most schools, in and out of the PL.

Sometimes people wait for someone else to take the first step. Someone who is a bit of an outsider and not a part of the inner circle, to eschew any judgement or censure. I think that someone in this case is Fordham. Who knows what this will bring, but change was inevitable...and I hope for the good. I think it will be and I hope you will see it that way as well.

Let's face it, the Ivy League is making aid more available to its admittees than ever before, so the playing field has changed. To remain credible in Division I FCS, I think the Patriot League must do this, and in a number and manner sufficient that it can be a so-called "counter" with FBS teams.
