Looks like Georgia State is adding football, and a couple of the names attached are pretty impressive:
Dan Reeves is football consultant
Bill Curry is head coach

Some articles on the team:

I know the CAA is of little importance to most of y'all, but I fully expect GSU to move up to the ACC or maybe C-USA within 5 years after they start. That school has a very aggressive athletic department that is looking to build a national profile, kind of like how Troy came from nowhere to be a legit DI program quickly. The CAA is one of the most brutal conferences in I-AA (I know that isn't right anymore but I don't care), lots of very strong programs and a boatload of AFL and CFL players come from there.

I'm curious to see how this entire situation works out and how much attention it ends up getting locally.
