And no one will blame you for that. Even in football, if UB and MSU, two of my alma maters ever went to even D1 FCS, instead of staying in D1 FBS, I would be done with them; and D2 or D3 would be the same for me in all the other athletics at those two schools: I would no longer have any interest.

Every year college & pro sports changes for the worse. They just have to tinker and dabble with athletics to the point that one day some of the old standard games will be ,if not unrecognizable , hardly tolerable. Look what they have already done to major league baseball and pro football , as examples. In MLB , they put a man on 2nd base in extra innings and allow the intentional walk just to name a couple of things. How about pro football with the dumb kickoff rule, the dumb on side kick rule change and other stupid internal changes that have been made. The NCAA won't be happy until every last low and mid major athletic program is out of D1 football and basketball. AND if D1 hockey gets to the point where there is a proliferation of high major schools in that sport, the NCAA will also see to it that conferences like the Atlantic Hockey league will also be relegated to either a new D2 ,or D3 level.
