They say that winning cures all but what happens to the community as soon as the wins stop?

I go to school at ualr and think it would be cool to have a team, but other than the athletes I'm  not sure if it will bring more students to our school

This would be awesome... Go for it UALR

I doubt it will ever happen . We tried in the ,1980s and the UA System said No.

Wow, if they can make this happen, that'd be awesome. I know they're talking about starting with D-III, which makes sense for now, but I'd love to see them become a full Sun Belt member and give stAte an annual in-state rival - assuming of course, we haven't jumped conference by then. Maybe they turn War Memorial Stadium into Trojan Field at War Memorial?

Maybe that way the Razorbacks wouldn't lose their anymore

I would love it to happen especially after Hendrix started Football.

My bad. Usually catch those before I post

UALR Football will never happen as long as they're apart of the UA System.

Wasn't dropping football a part of the deal for them to join the UA System waaay back when?

Yes when we researched it back in the 1980's the agreement signed by LRU to join the UA system said we can't have football without the UA BOT voting for it.

Any chance they could just leave the UofA system, become the University of Little Rock? Is that financially doable?

Only if the Stephens and other big Money in LR want it to happen.

I would love to see the Trojans get a football program .

It would give ASU a instant rival.

UCA seemed to be a good enough rival?

fresh_prince

I think this would be a great idea.
