RE: SI The SEC, NCAA and a Fight to Change College Sports
Maybe limit to that you have to have a minimum of a 10,000 seat stadium, or you can't be D1? Or?
BreaK D1 into 1A and 1AA for all sports. It is something that I have said in the past that the FBS schools want to break away from FCS schools and non-football schools. What would it mean?
It sounds like the SEC's man does not like to be dictated by schools like in the Big East anymore.
I could see this.
AAC + Wichita State adding football. Delaware, ODU, James Madison, Southern Mississippi, UConn, UMass or somebody else have to be 13 and 14th school.
ACC
Big 10
Big 12
CUSA
MAC
MWC
Pac 12
SEC
SBC
MVFC qualifies with all of their schools have the 10,000 seat stadiums.
Army, BYU, Liberty, New Mexico State, UConn and UMass. must have all their sports in an FBS conference.
Big Sky FBS would look like this:
UC-Davis
Cal. Poly
Eastern Washington could get over 11,000 capacity with temp seatings.
Idaho
Idaho State
Montana
Montana State
Northern Arizona
Sacramento State
Northern Colorado and Portland State do not qualify.
Big South:
Hampton U.
North Carolina A&T
The rest do not.
CAA:
Delaware
Elon
James Madison
New Hampshire
Stony Brook
Towson
Villanova
William & Mary
Albany, Maine, Richmond and URI need to build up their stadiums some.
Ivy League all qualifies, but with no scholarships for football, they are losing out big money for football games if they have something like Boston College goes to Harvard University to play football.
MEAC:
Howard
Morgan State
Norfolk State
North Carolina Central
South Carolina State
OVC
Austin Peay State
Eastern Illinois
Morehead State
SE Missouri State
Murray State
Tenn. State
Tenn Tech
Patriot:
Bucknell
Colgate
Holy Cross
Lafayette
Lehigh
Fordham could get the money to get to 10,000.
Pioneer:
Dayton did mentioned at the past to going to FBS to keep up with Ohio State and the rest.
Drake
Southern:
Chattanooga
The Citadel
Furman
Mercer
VMI
Western Carolina
Wofford
East Tennessee State would expand their stadium to keep up.
Southland:
McNeese State
Nicholls
NW La. State
SWAC: All of them.
WAC:
Abilene Christian
UCA
Dixie State
EKU
Jacksonville State
Lamar
Sam Houston State
SFAU
Southern Utah and Tarleton State needs to build up.
D2 with 10000 seat stadiums:
Albany State
Central Missouri
Central Oklahoma is at 12,000, not 10,000 that is listed on Wiki. They added seats recently.
U. Of Charleston
Fort Valley State
Grand Valley State
Henderson State
Morehouse
Midwestern State
SE Oklahoma State
SW Oklahoma State
Slippery Rock
Texas A&M-Commerce
Texas A&M-Kingsville
UTPB
Tuskegee
Virginia Union
Valdosta State
Walsh
West Texas A&M
Wichita State, Little Rock and UTA must add football if they want to stay with this group.
UTRGV, Seattle, Grand Canyon, California Baptist and Utah Valley also must add football.
There are schools that are willing to be up there with the P5, but there are schools who hired bad leadership and who are anti-football.
