You can always tell who’s played or worked at the next level and who hasn’t. I swear this “hot take” type journalism exists just to piss people off. Next level is next level, from D3 up to the Power 4.
Played D3, the only reason I went to college. I just wanted to play college fb. Had ups and downs. You get up and keep going. Pretty much like every day. 🤷♂️😊
I would also like to point out a Wisconsin Whitewater this season beat a D2 school and that same D2 school in the following week took a D1 (FCS) school to overtime.
The common misconception when it comes to college sports is that D1, D2 and D3 have anything to do with the quality of athlete per se. I mean, it does only due to D1 and D2 handing out scholarship money, vs D3 who doesn't. But the reality is, the Divisions are really based on SIZE of school. So as a school grows (as my college did over 20-30 years) they will often go from D3 to D1AA and if they continue to grow, eventually D1A. I played tennis for my college which was D1AA (America East at the time). They used to be D3 just a few years prior. We won the America East 3 of the 4 yrs I was there and competed in the NCAAs against *real* D1A schools. My good buddy who was a better player than me, went to Middlebury, which is a D3 school. They won the D3 tennis championship I believe 2 of the 4 yrs he was there. His D3 team (Middlebury) would have absolutely cremated some of the teams we had in the America East.
I get thinking that D1 is better than D3, but saying D3 is irrelevant is just stupid. Like those are still incredibly talented players, and the games are still awesome to watch. I will tell you right now that, as a student whose school has no football, I would much rather have a D3 team than no team. As a side note, does D3 accept club football? I'm trying to figure out if I can in fact get a football team on campus, but I can't find info

Also underrated, Division III, footballs finest. Excellent dumb movie

No club teams - only varsity ones
@@TheThirdDivision aw, that sucks. Back to the search I guess
