    It is NOT. Mainly because its non scholarship which can limit the guys they get.
    There is a local lawyer that always puts "I played D1 ball" in all of his ads. He played in the Pioneer League.

          Yeah, the Pioneer League schools wanted to play D1 basketball. Scholarship football was an obstacle to achieving that goal. As such, they have D3 quality football at a D1 school.

            The good ole "Dayton Rule". D2 and D3 football teams complained that schools with d1 hoops like Dayton and Butler had unfair advantages in recruiting. "We bring a kid in and take him to see Saginaw Valley play our guys in basketball. They bring the same kid in and take him to see Notre Dame play their guys in basketball."

            Well, if Valpo had such a huge advantage, they weren't using it. Anyway, the whiners had their way and D2 and D3 lost those now-Pioneer League teams who moved forward with non-scholarship football in D1.

                    Not to mention that it would be what, a game with the bearcats, Away at Saggy, Home against Kentucky State(trap game maybe?), Home against Ferris. That's a pretty tough stretch there, not to mention 3 other teams that made the playoffs, including last years national championship runner up?? I'm always one to say if you wanna be the MAN, you gotta beat the MAN, but yeah, would kinda like Wooster to get a season under his belt before taking on just that loaded of a schedule. Not that I wouldn't be there with Bolts on if it did happen in Allendale. But yeah, pretty brutal schedule even before adding the Bearcats to it.
