The college football landscape is ever-changing and it’s shown no signs of slowing down in the coming years. Some of that change appears to be coming to the Windy City soon. News broke last week that Chicago State University is exploring the prospect of adding football to its current lineup of sports teams that include basketball, cross country, golf, tennis, track & field and volleyball.
The university has already assembled a 16-member exploratory committee to examine the financial feasibility of adding a football program. The committee, which consists of several former NFL players including Howard Griffith, Vaughn Bryant and Otis Wilson, is expected to provide more information on the future of the prospective team later this spring according to CSU athletic director Monique Carroll per the Chicago Tribune.
