A fourth subdivision of the NCAA geared towards larger schools?
Currently the NCAA is made up of three divisions: I (which generates the most revenue and offers the highest number of athletic scholarships), II (which distributes scholarships but not at the level of Division I) and III (no athletic scholarships).
And in the eyes of NCAA president Dr. Mark Emmert a fourth division, which would be inhabited by the largest schools, could be accommodated by the NCAA.
That’s what he told Big 12 leaders during the conference’s meetings in Irving, Texas on Thursday according to the Houston Chronicle.
One of the issues discussed when conference realignment was most active was the possibility of the most powerful schools forming four superconferences and eventually splitting from the NCAA.
