Where would Northern Michigan be if they followed their conference mates in D1? They were in the same conference with Youngstown State, Central Michigan, Western Michigan and so forth in the 1970s.

Where would Case Western Reserve be if they stayed in the MAC instead of dropping down to D3?

Where would Washburn be if they did not dropped down to D2?

Where would West Texas A&M be if they did not dropped down to D2?

I think if M.I.T. stayed D1, and grew their stadium to close to 100,000? I think they would be in the Big 10 today in a heartbeat since they are an AAU school.
