Since the EWU Board decision in 1984 to move the athletics program to the NCAA Division I level, the role and contributions of the athletics program to the university mission have not been clearly articulated. Most recently, in response to declining enrollment and corresponding budget cuts, a faculty report was released in February 2020 that took a critical look at the athletics program and suggested several approaches, including the elimination of the athletics program. University Mission The mission of Eastern Washington University is to enhance access to higher education through recruitment of traditional as well as non-traditional and underserved populations. Athletics has enhanced the university’s profile, increased its visibility outside the state and region and thereby attracted students to the university. Athletics scholarships (i.e., grants-in-aid) are frequently offered to minority students and others from low income and underserved populations. As a co-curricular activity, the athletics program contributes in meaningful ways to campus life and community engagement. The success of EWU’s Division I athletics program in the highly visible sports of football and men’s basketball, and especially its nationally competitive football program has brought regional and national recognition to the university and contributes positively to campus life. The red turf on the football field has become associated with Eastern Washington and brings attention to the university each time a football game is televised. The perception of some affiliated with the university is that athletics does not contribute to the university mission. However, the athletics program’s recruitment and support of over 300 student-athletes brings diversity to the university and helps EWU achieve its enrollment goals. Campus and prospective student events surrounding football games and other athletics events bring future students to campus to enhance admissions and enrollment efforts. The success of the athletics program brings former students back to campus and provides a significant enhancement to the university’s alumni relations and development efforts. Status of EWU Athletics Eastern Washington University’s athletics program offers 14 Division I sports including football at the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) level. It is a member of the Big Sky Conference and offers a competitive athletics experience for over 300 student-athletes. Complementing its athletic success, academically EWU student-athletes have performed well in the classroom, achieving a higher-grade point average than the median performance of other Division I and Big Sky peer institutions. As a result of their academic and athletic achievements, EWU has won the Big Sky Presidents’ Cup on multiple occasions--a point of pride for the university. Eastern Washington University is currently facing significant financial challenges caused in large part by decreasing enrollment and compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic. Along with other university programs and services, the athletics

While the scene is still somewhat fluid, a lasting consequence of the realignment craze has materialized: A football conference will be completely wiped off the map.

  • WEEKZERO 1St Quarter
    WEEKZERO (When Evan Easily Kindles Zeal for Educational Recreation Opportunities) College Football Beginning of 2010 Season through Beginning of 2021 Season 1st Quarter by Evan Knox <This page left blank to help any players who may be reading these questions to themselves> 1. This player’s running style is, as described by @petebeatty on twitter and quoted on Grantland, similar to a “haunted downhill shopping cart”. This player once pulverized a hospitalized child in the NCAA football video game, winning by either 56 or 63 points (depending on reports) while using his own character to run for over 200 yards and pass for almost 400 yards. This player’s final year in college was wildly inconsistent, including a 4 of 9 passing performance with 2 interceptions vs. Northern Illinois and being benched before his team lost a spot in the conference title game on a Michael Geiger field goal. This player stated that a B on a sociology test led to his most famous saying. This player’s first start was a 59-0 win over Wisconsin, which like the following two games of the season was buoyed by a 200+ yard rushing, multi-touchdown game from Ezekiel Elliott. For 10 points, name this Ohio State quarterback that “ain’t come to play SCHOOL”. Answer: Cardale Jones (+1 moral bonus point for pronouncing his name like Gus Johnson would) <Players> 2. The last FBS game at this stadium was a 13-7 win by Coastal Carolina, in which the home team’s only touchdown was thrown by the head coach’s son, Mason.
