They say they'll save money. The thing about Savannah State is that their entire athletics budget is just over $5.7 million, and they're able to cover most of that with buy games, which they won't be able to play at the div2 level. So, how much money are they really saving. You can't save $20 million if you're only spending less than $6 million in the first place. The way they operate appears to be sustainable, and the MEAC really is a good fit for them.
