Charlotte upgraded its football program from FCS to FBS at the start of the 2015 football season. As expected, it hasn’t been an easy baptism for the 49ers, who went 1-11 this season for a three-year record of 7-29.
Even so, that doesn’t place Charlotte last among the 128 schools that have been in the FBS division since 2015. That dubious honor belongs to Kansas (3-33).
