SFU football program plans remain uncertain after report released

In a 136-page report released Monday, McLaren Global Sport Solutions senior vice-president Bob Copeland concluded that a"competitive football program operating in the United States is not feasible or sustainable."

In a five-paragraph statement on Monday, SFU offered some initial takeaways from the report but noted that an application to U Sports would be a"significant investment with no guaranteed outcome." "On behalf of the entire SFU community, I would like to thank Mr. Copeland for the depth and thoroughness of his work, including his extensive engagement with student-athletes, coaches and staff, as well as football alumni and industry experts," said SFU president Joy Johnson.
