Schools have been moving "up" for a while now. You don't think at some point that trend moves the other way? Just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it will not. I would be surprised if a school with as long a football tradition as ULM/NLU completely drops football. But it's pretty clear they can't keep up financially in FBS. Why not move down? Of course, I don't even think the school should exist at all, or at least not as a 4 year institution....too many 4 year colleges in Louisiana, especially in the empty northern part of the state. So there is that.
