Our expanded athletic program will also increase !Bryant's visibility and open new recruitment markets. Bryant College is a Perhaps most important, we are expanding our athletic programs because we believe that the classroom and playing field are linked student-centered together in shaping tomorrow's business leaders.

This study included a total of 206 football teams participating in NCAA Division I football subdivisions that included 108 teams from the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and 98 football teams from the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). A longitudinal analysis design found that football brand equity changed in an upward trend over time from 2003 through 2012 for both FBS stable and FBS migrating football teams, whereas the trend for FCS stable and FCS migrating football teams was inconsistent over the same period of time. Repeated measures ANOVA were conducted and found that there was not a statistically significant difference in football brand equity between FBS stable and FBS migrating football teams. However, there was a statistically significant difference between FCS stable and FCS migrating football teams’ brand equity. ii DEDICATION
