Fordham Rams football

656:, Fordham football returned in 1946 but on a deemphasized basis. National opponents were replaced with a regional schedule and recruiting became more difficult as the school put more emphasis on academics. University president Father Robert Gannon SJ did his best to diminish the program. Claiming that having a top-level football team didn't provide any real benefit to the school Gannon declared, "Fordham does not ever again want a football team rated among the nation's ten heaviest." Gannon further claimed sportswriters were "tyrants of tyrants" who believed universities only existed "to provide them with income." His hope would not be completely fulfilled as, after three straight abysmal seasons, some pre-war greatness reawakened in 1949. Coincidentally, shortly after Gannon's departure from Rose Hill, Fordham jumped to a 4–0 record and was briefly nationally ranked before suffering a 35–0 loss to second-ranked 709:
financial aid to full football scholarships however appeared to give the Rams a competitive advantage over the rest of the Patriot League. After some deliberation Fordham was allowed to continue with its conference schedule although those contests did not officially count in the conference standings. Furthermore the school was ruled ineligible from any conference titles (and thus an automatic bid into the Division I Football Championship Subdivision playoffs) until 2014 when the rest of the league was also able to switch to mostly scholarship rosters. Still, Fordham qualified into the FCS playoffs as an at-large in 2013. This was followed by a league title in 2014 and another at-large appearance in 2015. Each of those seasons also ended with Top-20 FCS rankings.

Fordham did appear in the "others receiving votes" category but were never again a bowl threat. The team combined for an 11–14–1 mark over the next three years although, thanks to the QB platoon of Roger Franz and Vinnie Drake, did again lead the nation in passing in 1952. As seniors Franz and Drake (one of the first African American quarterbacks in college football) continued to put up prolific numbers in 1953 despite another losing season.
