I ask any of you that follow FCS fairly closely...how does this article make sense?

A 16 team playoff seems like kind of a critically uninformed error to start. Then acting as if playing 3 FBS teams will/would/should not put you in danger of missing a playoff field? How long have we all know that this is a definite danger along with scheduling a D2 when you have an FBS game?

It really misses the point that you put yourself in grave danger if you overdo it with either FBS or D2 and you need to balance a schedule for best outcomes in order to have a quality resume at the end of the year.

They talk about scheduling cupcakes and the problem with that but they completely miss the point that a fairly weak conference schedule along with the FBS losses sort of doomed them.
