Based off the additional information you provided, these are some other schools your family may want to check out. They all offer degrees in engineering (multiple fields, unless specified otherwise) and in engineering technology. They also receive a B+ or higher on their Niche grade for athletics, which I’m interpreting as sports enthusiasm/school spirit. I’ve listed the approximate sticker prices for tuition, room & board, and your son could well receive additional merit to drop the prices further. Paging @EconPop as he may have some additional insight for you about some of the schools on this list.

Central Michigan: About 10k undergrads, sticker of about $25k

East Carolina (NC): About 22k undergrads, sticker of about $35k. Only offers a general ABET-engineering bachelor’s, but several engineering technology ones.
