Power: P5 + BE
Major: G5 + A10/WCC/MVC?
Mid-Major: Everyone else.

I don't think the label mid-major is disrespectful but I do think low-major is. It doesn't matter when a team can come out of any conference and win a NCAA tournament game.

While the performance doesn't merit much right now if you compare the SBC to the OVC or ASun as a G5 spread from the Carolinas to Texas its on a different level. Second tier compared to the third tier situation.

Just because the Sun Belt, etc play FBS ball, it doesn’t put their hoops in the mid level

Three tiers:

P6/7. (AAC is almost there)

Other conferences that regularly get multi-bids - A10, WCC, Maybe MWC

Single-bid conferences
