Message: [QUOTE="itgoeslike, post: 987171, member: 3691"] It depends on how you're defining sub-division. Currently the P5 are asking for autonomy within Division 1. Whether it's crafted as a group of conferences operating under a different set of rules or whether a new name is coined for the P5, it's still a subdivision. Slive is going beyond that (as punishment for watered-down autonomy) "suggesting" a separation akin to D-1 and D-2. Most people feel that it's unlikely they create a new division because it comes with both baggage and risk. With regard to your edits, the subdivision they've been discussing over the past three seasons have been within D-1 under the umbrella of the NCAA. However, they've also kicked around both publicly and privately the notion of a new division altogether. [/QUOTE]
