There are 3 schools in the MIAA Conference in Division II that have better football facilities--including indoor practice facilities (Fort Hays State, Pittsburg State, Missouri Western)-- than UNC.  There's no reason that they couldn't have gotten better facilities having stayed at that level.  CSU-Pueblo has a nicer stadium.

Dumb move by UNC.  Don't believe me?  Look up the stadiums that Montana, Montana State, and Eastern Washington have (I could do w/o the red turf, though).
