Maybe there are looking at D2 and the CCHA? I've seen one random person tweet a question asking about dropping from D1. Please link to some of these "reports" you're seeing. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted May 24, 2020 Author Posted May 24, 2020 Covid-19 will do to college athletics what it does to humans: Go after the weakest and most frail. The strong may feel some affects or be asymptomatic. That said, maybe this will force the NCAA to look at sport sponsorship requirements in a world of declining enrollments and sagging budgets. Quote

FIT is a small DII tech/engineering school that wants to be in the same mold as RPI or RIT. A DI move from them is highly, highly unlikely.) Crookston and St Cloud just ahead of the times. Quote

Be interesting to see which schools would be in the best position to add and wonder which are going to drop. Quote

There have been no additional reports that UW-Eau Claire will move to DiI either, although it must happen for both UWGB and UWEC CCHA hockey. Some friction in the Big Sky, as their dropping games in conference. https://www.google.com/amp/s/billingsgazette.com/sports/college/big-sky-conference/big-sky-conference-drops-four-games-from-mens-and-womens-basketball-schedules/article_adbf9cdb-384b-5962-b8d1-aa105a7f41b4.amp.html Quote

NDSU is in the B1G region according to that writer, which will never happen unless a new 60k domed stadium is built and billions is added to it's endowment. He also lists UMass, UConn, Liberty, UTEP, Army and five other FBS memb asers as joining those two new FBS leagues. Thought it was required to bash any thought of a new FBS league here by NDSU fans.

Also, FBS teams that move to FCS leagues before they get FBS payments won't get new ones until their regualified. NDSU being is a league with NMSU, UNM, UTEP isn't easily happening Quote
