D2 Football Independents

[crixus]

They are definitely not either NAIA or NCAA, as they would put that on their own website. Their accreditation is from a career school national accreditation agency, so I guess they have no affiliation with any national or regional sports body.

They (unlike the former College of Faith) do have real classes and degrees at the Batchelors and Masters level.

It turns out that the North American University Stallions are an NAIA football team. They're playing as an Independent at that level for a second season and will be in the Sooner Athletic Conference in the future.

I consulted the Yes Or No Wheel website and Franklin Pierce will not beat Post this season. That's where I go for all my important decisions. I used to flip a coin, but the wheel is more fun. ;)

They look like an Indie (for now) and they're not listed as a football member on the NE-10 website. But as you mentioned they'll be filling the spots that Stonehill left.

Would Post be considered an independent? I know they're apparently taking Stonehill's spots on other NE-10 schedules, but I haven't seen or heard anything official regarding a scheduling alliance.

They are a conversion from a sprint football team program...

Yes, I know. Alderson Broaddus has a CSFL program too.

Looks like they're an Independent with a limited schedule for this year. Their short season begins tomorrow.

I would guess they might ask to join the NE10 for football. It would give the league an even number of teams until New Haven moves up to D1.

Here's another new program. I'm not sure what Division they fall under? I'm guessing they're an Independent for the time being. They're 2-2 so far in their history.

The Big Blue are off to a 2-1 start and ranked #16.

Interesting (at least to me) that their loss is to Lawrence Tech which is one of the schools on my GLIAC wish list.

Still nothing from Post... I'm guessing they'll fill some open dates on NE-10 schedules.

Beginning this fall, they are an NCCAA member and therefore a countable opponent. Previously they were in the National Club Football Association.

Thank you!
