Early 2000s question[edit]

I'm looking at three moves from D2 from the early 2000s (Gardner-Webb, Savannah State, IPFW), and I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on them. I've got a few sources, all of which are vague as to when and whether they were Division II independents, provisional Division I members, or Division I independents prior to joining a Division I conference (which is about the only event that there's a solid date for). Does anyone have knowledge on/sources of these moves in particular or NCAA realignment policy at the time? Thanks, Kithira (talk) 01:45, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Conferences messed up![edit]

Teams from the west coast playing teams from the east coast, teams from the deep south playing teams from the deep north, etc. Did they try to mess everything up on purpose or what? Teams are supposed to be in the same general vicinity of each other and of the same division. At least that is how it was in the old days(10 years ago). And I dont like the bowl system either, the playoffs should be between conference winners to conclude to a national championship game with no wildcards involved. The current setup is actually worse than the NFL, at least in the NFL they respect the regional theme to some extent. What the heck were they thinking?

Fort Wayne is moving from the Summit to the Horizon . This page needs to be updated[edit]

Page size[edit]

This page currently has 423,599 bytes of markup; it's far too big. What's the best way to divide it up? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:47, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would transfer the 2000s into the (1928 - 2000) and slightly rename the articles since (1928 - 2010) sounds like the date of birth and death of an elderly person. zsteve21 (talk) 20:12, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the split. Blubabluba9990 (talk) (contribs) 19:02, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Programs Indefinitely Suspended / On Hiatus[edit]

Should programs classified as "suspended" or "on hiatus" indefinitely by a decision of their college be included in the list?

ASUN–WAC football[edit]

I made edits to reflect the formation of the ASUN–WAC Football Conference (tentative name) that were reverted two different times, with a suggestion on the second revert to take this issue to the talk page.

  • From the official ASUN and WAC press releases that announced the new conference: "The ASUN-WAC partnership will function in the manner of a single sport conference beginning January 1, 2023." (Emphasis added. Both announcements used "ASUN" and "WAC" in that order.)
  • The two leagues have established a basic conference structure for the joint football league and hired Oliver Luck as commissioner (though titled as "executive director"). See the ASUN and WAC announcements. Both even use the term "new conference" to describe this entity. — Dale Arnett (talk) 22:21, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what there is to talk about. The previous arrangement was just a scheduling alliance, this is a whole new conference. This seems pretty uncontroversial, and I'm not sure why your edits were reverted, Dale. fuzzy510 (talk) 00:05, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • What differentiates this from Big South–OVC? O.N.R. (talk) 04:16, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The ASUN-WAC pairing is a dedicated single-sport conference that just happens to feature the football memberships of those two conferences; like Dale said, it'll be an autonomous entity. The Big South-OVC alliance appears to be closer to the AQ7 arrangement, where both conferences maintain their separate affiliations, but they pool their members for a single AQ bid.
    I suspect the ASUN-WAC conference is going to rebrand itself as something far clearer for football purposes, and then this discussion will be moot. fuzzy510 (talk) 05:29, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Page Size[edit]

Despite adjustments in prior years, this article is right back in the top 50 of Wikipedia's longest, clocking in at over 463 kilobytes. This is too long to be reasonably readable. To fix this, we need to shuffle the years of these articles around. Here's my idea of how that could look:

  • This article becomes "NCAA Division I conference changes in the 2020s"
  • A new article, "NCAA Division I conference changes in the 2010s", is made to offload a chunk of this one's content
  • List of NCAA Division I conference changes before 2010 becomes "NCAA Division I conference changes before 2000"
  • A second new article, "NCAA Division I conference changes in the 2000s", is made to offload some of that article's content

I'd appreciate your feedback on this set of changes. Quattrovalvole 9/5/2023

I like your proposal better than the previous abortive attempt to move the line to 2015, as that would just kick the can down the road while this is a permanent solution. O.N.R. (talk) 01:48, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
