Dear Mr. Pryor,

After [reading your comments](https://www.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2026/09/30/regents-say-louisiana-tech-and-university-of-louisiana-and-ulm-should-drop-to-fcs-football-division/92011705007/?gnt-cfr=1&gca-cat=p&gca-uir=true&gca-epti=z11xx64e001500v11xx64d--xx--b--xx--&gca-ft=42&gca-ds=sophi) regarding Louisiana, Louisiana Tech and ULM and your suggestion that these universities should move their football programs to FCS, I believe a few things need to be addressed.

Let’s begin with something fairly basic.

FBS and FCS are both Division I.

Louisiana is Division I.

Louisiana Tech is Division I.

ULM is Division I.

Grambling, McNeese, Nicholls, Northwestern State and Southeastern Louisiana are also Division I.

The distinction is between the **Football Bowl Subdivision** and the **Football Championship Subdivision**.

he needs to read what the flutie effect is. Basically its premise is that cutting athletics in the way proposed is a short sighted solution to deficit problem that always end poorly

If he was a man and had any marbles, he would go onto Ragin Review to answer questions. I will hold my breath on that happening.
