Those were the days when JMU football was mostly a joke...ala the rest of i-aa. Nowadays the Dukes are a football powerhouse at the FCS(I-AA) level. They're probably as good or better than a good many low level BCS(I-A) teams. Look at a team Like UConn. They only started their porgram like 10 years ago. Started in the CAA...got their ass handed to them for a few years. Sunk an enormous amount of money into the program and became a top tier team but not dominant and moved to the Big East where they compete pretty well.
