Boone is a beautiful place, very nice campus and nice people to boot. I kind of wished UTC would drop to D2 and they would do well there. They don’t have the same alumni base and they are the little brothers to most of the other schools in the UT system, so with UT getting most of the states NIL budget and only being FCS in football, UTC would do best to drop. I mean plenty of basketball programs are doing so, heck, 2 that made NCAA tourney are announced to drop to D3 in sports due to the new money climate.
