NCAA D1 Board of Directors act - $EC no longer 1A
...starting in December. Excerpt from USAToday article:

[i]...The NCAA is doing a little re-labeling, eliminating the Division I-A and I-AA tags that officially separate college football's major and more modest programs.

Acknowledging frustration that the classification often brands an entire university as big-time or non-big-time, the association's Division I Board of Directors moved Thursday to rename the subdivisions. Beginning in December, they'll be known by their respective postseason formats.

What now are I-A programs

You've GOT to be kidding me?

The NCAA is increasingly becoming as flawed as government in Washington, DC.

BCS <==> Subsidies
This <==> PC crap
Title IX <==> Affirmative Action
SEC <==> Richard Nixon lol

Well... just hypothetically, if you raised the number of scholarships so that they would be equal to the "Football Bowl Subdivision" and then did some marketing, and then got some decent coverage of the "Football Championship Playoff" on say the ESPN networks... then just maybe excitement, attendance, and yes even revenue could catch up. Just a thought.
