Looks like VSU is looking to make the move to become a Division 1 school in the coming years probably within a 5- to 10 year period.
I like the idea because it would lead to our sports teams playing more recognizable teams. I would assume they probably would end up in the same division as Georgia Southern. UGA's first game this year is against Georgia Southern. Could you imagine one day UGA vs Valdosta State? That would be hilarious but fun to watch my alma mater get killed.
