FCS football is very good football. It’s not as good as watching the SEC or Big Ten, but it is still high-level football.
FCS guys end up in the NFL, and great FCS teams are a ton of fun to watch. NFL guys getting involved only raises the awareness of the FCS for everyone involved.
Hue Jackson is expected to be introduced as the next head coach of Grambling State University 🙌🏽
