From D1.ticker: The DI Transformation Committee has delivered its wide-ranging final report to the DI Board of Directors ahead of next week's NCAA Convention. On the topic of "Elevating support for student-athletes' mental, physical, and academic wellbeing," the committee's extensive recommendations include requiring a minimum of two years of medical coverage following graduation or completing one's athletic experience for athletic-related injuries, a requirement for a "direct pathway for full-time clinical services of a licensed mental health professional exclusively dedicated to serving student-athletes," provide 10 years of graduation completion funds for full scholarship student-athletes, a new DI governance structure with greater student-athlete participation and more. Related to enhancing the championship experience, the committee is recommending to "Accommodate access for 25% of active Division I members in good standing in team sports sponsored by more than 200 schools," and alter the DI revenue distribution model to "reflect contemporary Division I values and account for athletic performance in more sports than men’s basketball," among other recommendations. Finally on "Building a faster, fairer, and more equitable Division I," the committee is recommending the BoD be the highest governing body in the NCAA and consider revising its composition while maintaining its size, and eliminate the volunteer coach designation and alter official and unofficial visits and much more. Tons more. ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/committees/d1/transform/Jan2023D1TC_FinalReport.pdf |

If implemented, this would increase the FCS playoffs to 32 teams with 16 seeds (at current membership levels).
EDIT: That's wrong. FCS doesn't have 200 teams.

The only thing mentioned about FBS:
Membership Expectations — Football Attendance Requirements
The Transformation Committee recommends a reconsideration and update of
FBS membership requirements to determine appropriateness of maintaining the
current attendance standard while focusing on other elements that more
directly link the student-athlete experience to expectations for FBS membership
criteria. This review should be established by the Division I Board of Directors,
involve experts and key leaders from the FBS membership and focus on
establishing more effective distinctions between the football subdivision.
Approve in concept.
Refer to the Division I Council and Football Oversight Committee the exploration of any new subdivisional commitment expectations.
Legislative action to be finalized by June 2023.

I wonder how this will effect the WAC/ASUN FBS goal?

I wonder how this will effect the WAC/ASUN FBS goal? So far. Looks like it might help based on potentially dropping the attendance requirement. Otherwise, it doesn’t seem to focus on FBS at all but the division as a whole. There is this wording “and focus on establishing more effective distinctions between the football subdivision.” But said it would need to be completed by June 2023. So, doubtful anything would be accomplished by then. |
