Greeley newspaper editorial questions D-IAA

A big part of the conversation that is missed here is logistics.

There are a ton of IAAs in the northeast. There are a lot of IAAs down in Northern Colorado's neck of the woods.

Out east, schools that should be DIIs are IAAs because it's easier to schedule games because everyone else around you is IAA. (If you're a DI, you have to schedule DIs.) Travel isn't an issue because they're all packed in a close space.

In the midwest, there are significantly fewer IAAs as most schools are DII. Being DII in this area makes logistic and scheduling sense.

That leads me back to what I've said all along. I believe NDSU took the "two year" approach to this in the hope that some of the large public schools in the NCC would make the jump with them to help with the logistics and schedule issues.
