Hey IBAers,

I am still fairly new by Whatif standards but I feel like I have had a fair amount of success in a short time and was looking at a D1 jump this offseason but was a tad discouraged about the quality of schools which I was eligible for. These were not North Carolina, Duke, and Kentucky types of schools but, Nebraska, Utah, and New Mexico.

The feedback I received from the schools said they would like to see a longer track record of success. Does anyone know how long this track record must be? My thought process is that if I am going to end up in a tiny school I might as well stay in D2. Any thoughts IBA?

Adlorenz, I just made the jump in Iba and did back in December, for Wooden. Generally, you rebuild a Low DI before getting a Big6. However, if you stay in Iba 3-5 more years, you have such a good track record you may be eligible for a very rundown big 6. In Weber State, I may, after this season, have built up enough success to make a jump to a very good Big6. Hope this helps.

I honestly think you are a good enough coach to take a Low DI or Mid-Major to great heights.
