Okay, bub. Free time is over.
Translation: I’m important. Ha. Literally nobody knows that I played a tiny role in this thing. Ha. My role was very insignificant. Ha. And it makes me sad that people don’t pay attention to me. Ha. Maybe if I make it sound important, then people will like me. Ha.

I hold a different opinion and I believe the coach does too and not just because of the left-handed constipation look.mthoopsfan said:

Here’s what the FCS playoff selection committee told me in writing today:
"Division 2 games are not automatically removed from a team’s resume, but do become a point of evaluation when comparing teams under consideration."
Herder said this in his article last week discussing the Griz and Davis:
"Both teams have three D1 wins right now (the playoff committee does not count D2 wins).
In a 2022 article, Herder said this:
“For teams looking to to position themselves in the playoff seeds or earn an at-large bid, non-D1 wins are not included on the playoff resumes.”
How can someone who writes on FCS for a living be so off, and off on the same thing so often? Herder is a really week, doesn't have a clue, and can't be trusted.

The FCS selection committee considers D2 games, contrary to what Herder, Rob and a bunch of dummies have said.

My grasp of the English language is good. My proofreading isn't. Want to bet on whether the selection committee considers D2 games? I say the committee does consider them. Put up or shut up.

This is a repeat post, but I don't want it buried. So here it is again.

I sent the ncca the 2022 Herder quote. Note how the committee's response to me specifically addressed and shot down his statement about D2's not being on playoff "resumes".

Well that is pretty interesting. I have no shame and can apologize when I’m wrong. I’m very surprised to hear this as I’ve had a few email or Twitter convos with some of the committee players over the years and it always sounded like a Non D1 game was never considered at all. Thanks for the update.

I didn't notice what, if anything, you said on the subject, and believe you are one of the best posters on egriz. Yes, it is interesting, but it's not surprising to me because I read statutes, regs, and documents for a living for 45 years, and I read the selection criteria and everything else I could find on the subject (5 times or more). And we lawyers had to be right in analyzing every single one of those things. And it was clear to me that the selection criteria didn't say or even hint D2's wouldn't be considered, although they said and implied that DI wins were important. The rules have been updated, and they say that DI wins are important. I think DI wins were always important.
Here is the basic premise of the criteria:
"1. The committee shall select the best teams available on a national at-large basis to complete the bracket. Per NCAA Bylaw 31, the basic criteria used in the selection of at-large participants are (1) won-lost record, (2) strength of schedule, and (3) eligibility and availability of student-athletes for the NCAA championship;"
My view is that, for bubble teams, a win over no. 1 D2 Ferris would help the bubble team, in each of (1) and (2) above, and would compare favorably to another bubble team who had played a weak FCS team. I don't know what SOS the committee uses, but I assume it would include all games, including D2's. SRS may no longer be in the criteria.
I will post more later on the subject, as I have more information.

From another thread:

Haslem was asked about how D2 games factor in to playoff selection during the UCD pregame radio show. I believe he is the chair of the selection committee this year. He said that the D2 results could be considered in evaluating and comparing teams. The example he used was if SDSU (which played a D2) and UM ended up with the same overall record, the committee would compare the D2 results along with the overall strength of schedule. He didn't discuss how two teams with the same number of wins, but with one of them having a D2 win while the other had all D1 wins, would be compared.
Hoops:
Interesting. I was not aware of that. Well, he would have been up to speed on the subject, as he would have seen my email to the committee ahead of his interview. My email analyzed the criteria/rules, in a semi-lawyer fashion, and set forth my views. Truax, last year's committee chair, had told him that I had contacted Truax on this first, a little bird told me. My impression is that the committee would look at overall SOS, including the D2. And while the committee would like DI wins, they would look deeper at the actual teams played and would not decide on form over substance (i.e. the team with the most DI wins gets selected, even though the D2 was better than some of the DI teams the first team played). The committee wants the best teams; they don't want the teams that have won the most DI games (just like they don't do that now). Thx.

This Herder youngin' sure seems to give lots of you a bad case of gas. Experience teaches us lessons. If you are tired of hitting the same chuckhole in the road.........go around it..........avoid it. Avoidance Therapy. I don't dislike him, as I've never read his shtuff. :thumb: Worked for me. :lol:

I'm guessing Herder is spot on in the final poll of the year. The griz will be unranked.
