One thing many people don’t know is JUCOs also have division one and two.Thanks for everyone’s responses re NAIA vs DIII. It was informative because I always thought NAIA was podunk schools and maybe even below DIII but I see that is not the case. Also explains why there is NAIA divisions I and II (except for football). I mistakenly had the opinion that NAIA division II was something like high end intramurals.
D3 I’ve always said what you need to get on the team is a checkbook or student loan availability. Know kids who started at that level who barely played at small school level.
