FIU Sports History

[esteban688]

Hey everybody, i was thinking the other day (since I am a Proud FIU student/fan and like to talk up my school to everyone) that there should be more information available on all the history of FIU sports. I am a freshmen right now so i really wasn't around to know too much about FIU's past athletic accomplishments. Just a couple of days ago i became aware of FIU making the brackets in the NCAA March Madness in 1995. Now i wonder what else has FIU accomplished.

I'm not necessarily asking for answers on this board, i have found a lot of FIU sports facts, by doing some heavy searches on the Internet. This information should be easier to find for not just me but for all other new FIU students/fans who might not be as willing as i am to spend time finding these things.

I suggest that someone who knows FIU Football, M & W BB, Tennis.... ect... FIU sports in general can either add on to this site or any other FIU related site. Or even better someone should edit and add a ton of information to FIU Athletics wikipedia page. Some more in depth info (not just where the team plays and how many seats the home field has). Cuz right now that page is a skeleton of information.

If i knew more i would happily do it, and if anyone can give me the information (like inaugural season, year by year records, notable players/staff, record holders, interesting facts...ect) of all FIU's sports department i would like to help. But it would be great if someone with better access to the info can do it.

I'm sorry but i like to brag a lot about our beloved school FIU and this would be good to keep my facts straight ha ha!!

You're right Esteban, sometimes it's hard to find a lot of this information online, but the fact that you mentioned wikipedia and the FIU Athletics article, you should edit the articles on Wikipedia with the information you find so that others can see this information. For example, you can add a history section to the article if you want and you can add what you find there. Just a suggestion, GO FIU!

There are MANY mistakes on the FIU Football wikipedia page, including them missing the entire 2003 season.

OK! I have already started to edit. But this is going to have to be a team effort. I might need to ask some questions to help me. We need to get our page on par with all of the other major universities.
