Strange but true

Posted April 16th, 2007 by Ron

I received this memo recently from a local college as a reminder about football.

Please remember, the NCAA has new terminology for its football playing schools in Division I

Effective Dec. 26, 2006, the labels NCAA I-A, I-AA and I-AAA were deleted from NCAA use.

Previous Name – New Name

NCAA Division I-A (I-A) – Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS)

NCAA Division I-AA (I-AA) – Football Championship Subdivision (FCS)

NCAA Division I-AAA (I-AAA) – Division I

Also, any use of the I-AA will be referred to as NCAA Division I Football Championship

So, this is what the NCAA does with all of its money. The top teams from the FBS play in the BCS to win the NCAA title. Imagine if there were more than 26 letters in the alphabet.

    What a load of convoluted CRAP. That whole frikkin "organization" should be put out of its misery. They deny Akron a much-earned bid into their little tourney, but find time to re-name all of their idiotic subdivisions?

    Well FORGET IT, NAAP…NAAC…CAAN…whatever you wanna be called…I REFUSE. I'll stick with the terms for your crooked system you've already ingrained into our simpleton minds. What nuts.
