Moving to Division II

[MountainTroll]

I wish we could move Alcoa to D2 just for the posters

The Goon Squad is available for hire. They'll come on here and heckle your opponent for cheap. They'll even work for free when you play Booger's leprechauns.

If BA and Ensworth stay with their number what will the 3A look like? 7 or 8 teams?

When do BA and Ensworth have to announce if they are staying D2 AA or moving up to D2 AAA?

 

Why would anyone expect them to announce their intentions? The regional alignment will be announced on the 17'th, so I'd presume that if nothing comes from BA/Ensworth (or anyone else) before that happens that they intend to play where their enrollment dictates. I completely understand the concern of other schools for their chances against these behemoths, but fail to see the position that they "should play up"...most of you were pretty quick to dismiss the publics for not wishing to have the privates in their division, even though they have an advantage...now that the only difference between most privates and BA/Ensworth is how good they are..."it's not fair"!

I'm thinking I read somewhere that all schools have until Tuesday to say if they want to play up. Then T$$AA will set regions.

The entertainment value alone would be worth it

I thought they were going to release the projected Regions/Districts before the meeting on the17th so schools can make a case to change regions/districts during the meeting.
