1)Is PC eligible for the Big South title and/or an FCS playoff spot?
2)Is UTSA still a member of the Southland for non-football sports?

1. Yes they entered Division I with us; so they should be eligible this year.

I ask about Presby because a couple of preseason mags list them as ineligible. I thought they were.
Also, what about Bryant? The conference website lists them as enterring in 2012/13.

Is Tx State or So Alabama eligible 2011 for FCS play-offs?

Bryant, USD and UND are in their last year of transition.

IIRC, Presbyterian did not perform adequately on some of the transition steps required by the NCAA, so Blue Hose are still not eligible for full DI participation.

That makes sense Referee. The same thing happened to WSSU which ultimately contributed to them going back to DII. Thank God for our athletic director, who has kept our transition going pretty smoothly.
