Interesting. Does any other Canadian schools participate in DII/DIII/NAIA here in the states?

This is old news. They've been pushing this for years.

No, it is not old news. This is the first time they have been eligible to apply.

I wonder, with Canadian schools now eligible for D-II membership, if they'll eventually be granted permission for D-I membership.

My point was that this move has been DISCUSSED for years. Look back at eGriz. This discussion was going on two or three years ago. The NCAA didn't make this decision in a vacuum.
