The possible move up to what used to be termed Division One football has been a topic of conversation at Eastern Kentucky University off and on for years. Now, it appears that may be forthcoming. Here is a written statement offered by EKU Athletics Director Matt Roan on Friday.
“As reported by ESPN today, EKU is actively working towards a move to FBS football along with the other football-playing institutions within the ASUN and WAC. EKU’s main objective has been and will continue to be providing the best possible situation and opportunities for our student-athletes, programs, and university community,” said Roan.
