Seton Hill's football venture offers stiff challenge - PittsburghLIVE.com
Seton Hill's decision to launch a football program and join the NAIA Mid-States Football Association, beginning with the 2005 season, represents a bold move and will require a ton of cash.
While NAIA football programs generally don't hand heavy scholarship money like NCAA Division II programs, they do nonetheless, represent a sizeable leap over funding from non-scholarship NCAA Division I-AA Mid-Major and NCAA Division III programs.
Forget the idea of competing with the MSFA's established programs, it will be interesting to see if Seton Hill belongs on the same field with the likes of St. Francis (Ind.), Walsh, McKendree and Geneva.
