well...
i'm under the impression that davis was completely on board with the move out of delta to the sfl. I think the thought is fb will suck, but we want to be in a better league for our other sports.
fb only leagues is the long term solution; that was talked about extensively in the realignment meetings, and it was determined that they need to study it and do it right, if that's the way it's going to go. I tend to agree with that sentiment. and the board's decision was to revisit the issue in 2 years, to get something in place for the next realignment cycle.
To be clear, there was discussion of fb only conference with an A and B league, with relegation, and an administrator had a whole plan in place with agreement from all of the proposed schools. It was a very fascinating read, found on the cifsjs.org website... all of the minutes are there.
It is a shame that Davis backed out... and they should receive sanctions if they can't justify it with an injury excuse... but again, I understand that Davis wanted the move into the sfl. They certainly did not voice any objection.
