The thing that makes me upset about the whole situation is that there are so few D2 schools in there with us? Granted... it's more of an issue with "so few schools in the conference in general"... but whatever...
In my head the only thing that should be considered about being D2 is that other schools have many more students to draw from and that helps their TOTAL omnium points. Which is really all it does effect. Finishing where you finished is a big deal, though. I just wish that the designation was more accurate...
