Northern Iowa Posted September 17, 2002 Posted September 17, 2002 This writer is nuts. The Athletic Director at UNC is dead-on, stone-cold correct. What people like Schuman miss is the fact that programs like UNC and UND and NDSU, etc. are stagnating in D-II. There's nothing else to do at that level. My opinion only. NI Quote
The Sicatoka Posted September 17, 2002 Posted September 17, 2002 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. Quote
Riverman Posted September 18, 2002 Posted September 18, 2002 Sounds like they don't mind being a prostitute. I agree however who likes to play SCSU? I believe they still don't offer the scholarships the rest of the NCC does. Quote
