Central Arkansas main old rival is Arkansas Tech. Now, basketball is now considered exhibition and nothing else.

I don't think it's all that surprising. Other than UCSD, the California schools in D2 are either Cal State campuses (largely seen as commuter schools) or small private sectarian schools.

There's LOTS of commuter schools in D-1.

Most of the D2 Cal State schools are commuter schools, but they're still 4-year schools with graduate programs. If CSU-Chico, CSU-LA, or Humboldt State is too "commuter" for D-1, then more than half of the Atlantic Sun, America East, Horizon, WAC, and even C-USA schools should drop to D-2.
