With the jump to D-2 and the recruits they sound like they are getting as well as some of the returners they could have a pretty good season next year

The jump to DII is not going to be that easy. I look for the building process to take 3-4 years. If lucky, maybe a few transfers could get them there a little faster. The competition is a pretty significant step up. Coach Holsclaw does a good job recruiting but it may have been easier if he could have started recruiting for the move up a year in advance. A little shuffling of NAIA talent to make room for scholarship players in NCAA D-II is probably in the cards.

The best NAIA teams like Georgetown, Cumberlands, and Pikeville last year will be about the same as the teams they will face in DII. NAIA talent is on par with NCAA talent. NAIA allows 26 scholarships, while NCAA DII allows 32. There's not a big difference.

My point is they cannot compete consistently with Georgetown, Pikeville, and other NAIA powers, they will need more talent to be anywhere close in the move to NCAA DII as the competition is more like G-Town, Pikeville every week. In my opinion NAIA as a whole is more like NCAA DIII. Been around both levels and seen many games first hand to base my opinion of this.

It is my understanding that while they are D2, they will play ina NAIA conference.

 

They are D2 in all sports except football. They are no longer D2 in football and are NAIA at least for the time being. This only happened in the past 2 years.
