It seems like Richmond going to the Patriot league is a downgrade. I have nothing against the schools in the league but Richmond is used to playing higher-caliber teams. I've only seen them play when they've been on TV for the FCS playoffs. Wouldn't it have made more sense to go to FBS?

Lots of info covering the long and winding trail of the Coastal here, thanks. The realignment we're experiencing now is unlike the norm since the NCAA subdivided Division I football in the late seventies. Lots of soul-searching to come as institutions wrestle with their affiliations, their identities, and their budgets.
