Originally posted by PrezdeJohnson09 View PostIt's impossible now for a D3 school to make the jump to D1 without at least moving the entire athletic department up to D2 or D1. The only schools that I see that might potentially explore this route are the Franklin Pierce, Saint Anselm, Saint Michael's etc. that are all currently D2. They could play in the D1 championship if they choose, they just need to form together and create a conference with enough teams.

Originally posted by PrezdeJohnson09 View Postthere is no D1 women's championship. It's technically the national collegiate championship which allows these D2 schools to play up and do that if they would like to.
Interestingly, womens D2 teams are allowed 18 scholarships. Men (D2 playing as D2) are 5CCT '77 & '78

Originally posted by joecct View Post6 teams = 20 game conference schedule. Plus there are some bottom end ECAC or HEA teams (these games count towards NCAA) that could be scheduled. They'll get close to 25, but won't make 30.
If they want to go that route.....

Re: D3 to D1
Recently heard Post University going to D1 next season. Seems like a real stretch to me. I know sometimes box scores can be misleading, but I don't think so in this case. Word is also getting rid of all of their D and starting over as well. Seems odd since they are a new program and this had to be discussed when starting the program. Having said all of that, I take the source of information with a grain of salt. Wait, check that, a block of salt.
Anyone know otherwise?
Thanks!

Re: D3 to D1
So their ENTIRELY D3 schedule is misleading??? And, the fact they have given up 100 goals and scored 4 in 11 games against D3 (and not all top D3) competition. Seems kind of odd we would call this a D1 program, technically or otherwise.
