With the football facility upgrades, where does Bucknell now rank in the Patriot League in facilites? Lower middle?
I don’t think dropping football is the solution. I think you weather this storm as best you can and then wait for a change from the Administration.
There have been some facility upgrades for football: new turf practice field, huge scoreboard upgrade, new press box, etc. However construction on the largest upgrade is starting soon, i.e. the new football/lacrosse Pascucci Center, which will include offices, locker rooms, weight rooms, large meeting rooms, etc. When that is completed, Bucknell will be no worse than middle-of-the-pack in the PL. The top of the rankings mostly depends on how much you value having a large indoor practice facility. If cold and/or precipitation bothers your players, then that might be a big deal. Only Holy Cross and Lehigh (on the drawing board) have that sort of facility.
