So of the 45 schools playing football in D2 for Super Region 1... maybe 4 are fully funded.
Gannon and Mercyhurst, yes are PSAC schools, but the scholarships are said to be funny money that private schools can get more creative with.

Do FBS or FCS have any schools that operate below the "maximum" scholarship number?
I'm almost 100% certain that there is not a single FBS school that isn't carrying 85 full scholarships on their team at all times.
D1 schools can only sign 25 kids per year. I know Kansas State was not at 85 for a few years because the 25 rule kept them from getting to that point.
Unsure if that has changed with the portal.

According to this article, Kansas only just recently got back up to 85 scholarships this past season, and it sounds like they've been operating under 85 for about a decade. I know KU football was in a pretty sad state before Lance Leipold worked his magic over there, but if a Power 5 school was failing to meet that 85 benchmark for multiple straight seasons, maybe it's not so uncommon at the FBS level either... Although maybe not quite to the extent that it's at here in D2.

I think most d2 schools get creative like that. Every Fafsa dollar, academic dollar, or other private oe spec interest scholly dollar you can get a player is bonus money on top of offering in state tuition to out of state kids. A.d2 team can end up with enough money to.cover 70 or 80 players pretty easily using all the tricks.
