Should Bucknell consider bumping down to Division III athletics? This would solve most athletic dilemmas and make us competitive again. Bucknell football would be well placed and the basketball team could finish second or third in their new league. Athletes could keep their high quality academics and be stars again in their respective sports.
With the addition of Loyola and Boston U a decade back the patriot league would be fine and there is no shame in joining a league that fits us.
I myself would prefer to be competitive in Division 1 but it seems the Bucknell powers that be do not share in this sentiment. Its going to be another tough year watching the train wreck of a basketball program at least from a fan's standpoint lose week after week and in a helpless fashion.
