What'll happen with the D2 jobs if there are 70 jobs open and 100 ppl want them? I'm jw what my plan of attack is for no experience in that world, I don't care how bad the job is but I'd like a D2 job next season.

I am sure there will be enough attrition... 100% human filled is probably a little too optimistic

there are 82 jobs open in DII Rupp it appears with apps about over. I would think there will be plenty of room. DIII was pretty empty had we not put several into it. ... Rupp DII was the fullest world to start, but, several moved to DI and several dropped. I would expect more to move to DI or drop at the end of this season... as there were alot of teams here who are on their own time-line which has nothing to do wit da "Mega-Bowl"

If we end up with 80-90% of Rupp DII full for several seasons it will be pretty unprecedented I would think.

FYI - a few of us (gomiami, headfirst, markshir and I) just joined up 2 seasons ago in Rupp D2, with the intent on making it a long term proposition. So if you're looking for a conference that should start turning the corner this year or next, hit up the Peach Belt and try to get a little advantage.

A little too tired now to read the whole thread, but I am in at Dubuque in DIII. I'll be moving up next year.

I had a D3 team and want one more year with my senior class before moving up. Very interesting to see a couple of the sims I scheduled last year now coached by guys like Lostmyth tho. Should be a riot in D3 this year.

I'm in with Baldwin Wallace in D3 Ohio Conf

Edit: To be clear, since I'm already in D1 Rupp, I created a new ID and joined (jdno2)

I'm at Worcester St in the NESCAC...with 5 open schollies, DII in one season is no guarantee, though.

idk what you guys mean by u dont know if you'll be in d2 next season. Do you mean you want to stay in D3 because you are eligable for D2 just by playing a season in D3.

current numbers for Rupp are:

81 DII programs available for next season.

around 140 teams in all of DIII

45 of those are 1st time coaches.

looks pretty good.

I took over Cornell in D3 with the plan of taking a D2 next season.

I am thinking of ditching my D3 program in Wooden and grabbing one in Rupp with the next round of hirings and then making a leap to D2. Recruiting at D2 can't be any worse for me than it is at D3.

wise, the deadline for new coach signups in Rupp for this season is this afternoon, so you still have time

I'm in. Just signed up at DIII in Rupp.

If anyone else is still thinking about getting in, come to the Freedom conference! It used to be good!
