I do think everyone would like to have that as their end goal. I'm just

not sure how feasible it will be to achieve it. I do think there is a possibility that at some point the P2s could be forced to do their own thing for a number of reasons. Once that happens, then the risk of being stuck with the "DII" label goes up for all the non-P2 schools.

Big media wants to promote and televise us. We were one of their darlings.
NokieHokie • 08/03/25 02:11 PM ET
Yes, I do think it matters because the FBS Playoffs LLC and NCAA meet
