Bringbacktitanfootball.com is a website dedicated to the reinstatement of the Cal State Fullerton Football Team to active and competitive status. No matter if the team was winning championships or experiencing a difficult season, many students, alumni and fans were supportive of the program up until its cancellation. We believe that reinstating the Cal State Fullerton Football Team will provide a greater sense of pride and cohesiveness among current students, alumni and the community at large in the greater Orange County, California area. One of the main arguments for the elimination of the Cal State Fullerton Football program in 1992 was overall apathy and a lack of fan support. We believe that fan apathy towards the Cal State Fullerton Football Team no longer exists in today's climate. By reading this passage and by visiting this website you have taken a positive step forward towards eventually bringing back the Titan Football program.
Petition
It’s been 15 years since the Cal State Fullerton Football Team played it’s last game in Titan Stadium. It’s about time we brought it back. There is a movement going on to research and determine the feasibility of reinstating the Cal State Fullerton Football Team. The major hurdle to clear may very well be Title IX compliance and gathering funding for such an undertaking. California State University, Fullerton has grown tremendously since the football program was terminated in 1992. The student population has ballooned to 37,000, up from the 24,000 in 1992 when the football team was dropped. An online petition originally intended for presentation during a special town hall meeting on November 29, 2007 is still active. The petition is one way you as a Titan Football fan can let your voice be heard and to support the reinstatement of Titan Football.
Reinstate Cal State Fullerton Titan Football Petition
The online petition states:
We, the undersigned, hereby pledge our support for the reinstatement of the sport of intercollegiate football at California State University, Fullerton.
The Cal State Fullerton Football Team can trace its roots back to 1970 when the sport was first established at CSUF. In the 23 years of competition prior to the program’s cancellation following the 1992 season, the Cal State Fullerton Football program has produced numerous professional football players and a number of former coaches have coached or currently coach in the National Football League. We believe that reinstating the Cal State Fullerton Football Team will provide a greater sense of pride and cohesiveness among current students, alumni and the community in the greater Orange County, California area.
The main argument for the elimination of the Cal State Fullerton Football program in 1992 was overall apathy and a lack of fan support at that time. By signing this petition, we are proving that assumption to be false and no longer valid in today’s climate.
We, the undersigned, plan to support the Cal State Fullerton Football program in any way we can. We encourage the California State University, Fullerton administration and Associated Students, Inc. to reinstate the football program for competition in the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA).
This petition will be presented to Heather Williams, ASI President & CEO-Associated Students, CSUF, Inc., on Thursday, November 29, 2007 at noon pacific standard time. The petition will be presented during a special town hall meeting intended to gauge interest in reinstating the Cal State Fullerton Football program to active status.
By signing this petition, we request California State University, Fullerton reinstate the Cal State Fullerton Football Team to full competitive status within the NCAA.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
