When Fayetteville's policy will change

Fayetteville will begin playing in-state schools when they think it is to their advantage to do so. I think their policy is very petty and completely self-serving (forget anything that might be for the good of the sport in the state), but those are the facts of the case. When there is a Gonzaga or a Butler, or even a Davidson in the state, then things might change. Only when it begins to appear that Fayetteville is afraid to play the other school will there be any motivation to change. It is almost impossible that that will happen in football given the immense resources needed to be successful in that sport, but it could conceivably happen in basketball; and before something happens, it must be conceived.
