Come on, people. Can we support and take pride in what we have instead of pining after what will in all likelihood will never happen?
U.S.F. has a rugby squad. TWO rugby squads, for that matter--men's and women's. Both would love to have our wholehearted support. But nooooooooo... here we are, talking about what would it take to bring back football to the Hilltop and who would we play and Title IX and blah blah blah. Meanwhile, our rugby clubs just do their thing, completely under the radar.
Allow me to be the wet blanket: Division 1 Football is never coming back to U.S.F. Even if Title IX would get abolished (dream on, people), there's simply no institutional support for big-time football--both here and the other WCC schools that dropped it. And unless we find our own John Arrillaga or the NCAA institutes a spending cap on programs (dream on, people), there won't be any funding for it, either.
