Ferris State University now currently holds the title of "The Man" now.

I'm pretty sure I had all of the dates from 1980 to present all filled out, I used this website here.... http://michigan-football.com/ncaa/ncaa_ii.htm and I pretty much used that site from there on to determine "The Man". It does get harder to figure out when teams moved up back then, but usually poking thru their older media guides will give you the dates you need, and you also might fight the info to confirm what division a school was when it played somebody who may have been a holder of the title belt then. If anybody can fill in those missing dates or track it back from an earlier champion, it would be a big help as well. In theory here, all NC winners were the Man, even if it was just an interim title.

I think I've stumbled across another website that will make it much easier to track it down all the way to the original "The Man" Louisiana Tech in 1973.

Updated, wondering if I should have waited until the end of the Colorado Mines at Valdosta State game to update this.

[BlazerLady]

Valdosta State.

[Wide_Right]

For a week at least.

[cwfenn]

Bowie State is now The Man.

[BlazerLady]

Then that just means that Newberry has been 'The Man' for almost 10 years, instead of (just now) a week :).

LOL..... Check....what did VSU do in 2012........
