Just remember that the member schools are the NCAA. It's not like there a separate entity making decisions about D2 football. Things are the way they are because that's how the D2 schools (collectively) want it. They want regions, less travel, and more post season opportunities for the student athletes.Go GSC and Roar LIONS!!

You're right, D2 is run by the D2 presidents. It's their fault and seems to be getting worse by the season.

It’s not their fault that 10% of the D2 teams spend more like lower FCS teams and dominate every year. This is the set up at this level. It’s small college foosball. The other 90 percent are closer to what the level is about.Go GSC and Roar LIONS!!

It is their fault. They set the rules for their own division.

Not sure what you mean by "staying in business." I don't think D2 football or basketball makes any money or ever has.

The schools must stay in business which is why the regions exist, why silo scheduling exists, why cost savings outweigh things that might make the overall product better. It's why not every school or conference can be fully funded. It's honestly why D2 football might not survive with how things are trending.
I think D2 schools have decided to position themselves between the competitiveness of D1 and the scholastics of D3. I see nothing wrong with that and I don't think there's anything wrong with the (football) product.

Think of all the schools that have moved up over the years. Only a few are dominant in the level they moved up to…most are just another face in the crowd.

I can make the argument that a few schools dominate because the majority of schools in D2 football don't or can't maximize their financial commitment.
