Curious - how many human coached teams are in those divisions?
There are 37 human coaches in Camp D1AA.
And out of those 37 coaches - 21 have been at their schools for 4 years or less. Which leaves 16 teams with a long term coach - And 32 teams make the playoffs. And there are the same 6 teams that have been playing in the NC over the years.... - No kidding.
I would imagine that even in the good old days of GD when everyone was winning 18 NC's in a row, D1aa was likely a level that never had great participation or coaches staying for more than the 1 season before they hit D1a.
Look...everyone knows this current engine is hardly perfect and all the hand wringing and complaining is bringing the new engine that everyone desires. However...it's rather insulting to bag on anyone who has had any success in this engine. Blaming randomness or lack of coaches, etc. etc., is just a way for a majority of people on here to make excuses for why they can't win in this engine. This engine isn't perfect...far from it. But unpredictable?
I have 26 NC's that say it's pretty predictable...but if I get #27 this afternoon...obv I keep getting lucky!
