Villanova, a perennial basketball contender and one time champion, has long had its football program in FCS. I believe UNLV would be far better off doing the same. Money saved from supporting an FBS football team could go to bolstering the BB program. UNLV once made its name in national BB annals, but the only way is to do what Villanova has done. I do not know if the MWC requires a member to also participate in football. If so, then not. But, I do know UNLV could once again become a national power in NCAA basketball.
A tough pill for Rebel football fans, but it's long past time to face reality. In that sense, the Big Sky Conference has facilities equal to the Fertitta Center, for example. Otherwise, after 30 yrs. or more, you are illustrating the symptoms of insanity.
