They did this for about 15 years, and went back to FCS a couple years ago. It was a total scam that the NCAA never questioned.
Yeah... right...

Yeah, I debated including TSU, but it's still a D2 year for them so I added them in.

According to official NCAA records:
1. Morehouse (10,924)
2. Grand Valley State (9,821)
3. Tarleton State (8,952)
4. Tuskegee (8,872)
Northern Illinois averaged 8,518 for the season.
San Jose State is listed as having a 15,396 average - that probably includes the band and a lot of other gameday function "attendees."

The MAC is eliminating many conference tournaments and adjusting others.

NCAA has a very loose definition of who counts in those numbers anyway. They specify a difference between paid, and non-paid attendees - but they are all under the blanket number. Yes, this does include the band members.
