Yet more on the move to FBS.

The Boston Globe says UMass is still deciding.

An Atlanta newspaper says "If UMass moves to FBS, what about Georgia State?"

The Toledo Blade says UMass may join the MAC.

The UMass Athletic Dept says the move would not cost more money.

A Boston College blogger does not see any upside for Boston College.

Things have been so busy that I have not had time to correct some bad information here.

Back on last Sunday, I blogged about Mark Whipple being fired at the University of Miami. That turned out to be wrong. Gee, bad information on the internet. Who would have thought?

Actually, Coach Whipple has been retained (so far) along with all of the Hurricane's assistant coaches. In fact, it appears Whipple will have an enhanced role under interim HC Jeff Stoutland. See this transcript of Stoutland's press conference.
