I know there has been talked about Wichita State restarting its football
program, so it will be interesting to see if it ever came to fruition. Besides Marshall, I believe Wichita State is the only other DI program to have football players killed while flying to or from a football game. I have seen some reports suggest that the plane crash (I forget if it is was the "Black" or "Gold" plane) led to the death of the football program. While other reports have suggested that the program was already experiencing a slow death and the plane crash help speed things up. Regardless of how things went down, I had always hoped that Wichita State would eventually re-start its football program and have a similar comeback as Marshall.
