At least one group at Texas State has some doubts about whether the university is making the right move as it attempts to move up a notch in football divisions. As Jorrell Rodriguez tells us in this Bobcat Update, the group has created a website to draw attention to its cause.
The group is called A Better Texas State University-San Marcos. It now claims a little less than 200 members on Facebook. The group opposes the university's move to elevate the athletic program to the highest level of collegiate competition.
The group takes issue with the move because it will be very expensive to do so. Group founder Bobby Cast says he decided to form A Better Texas State University after reading a newspaper article last year.

The group serves to enlighten students on the issue and hopes that Texas State will one day be considered a contender to become a flagship university.
