Some of the better D3 Teams could beat some of the lesser D2 Teams. D1 is a whole different story - those players are just too fast and skilled. The best D3 Teams would get easily beat by lesser D1 teams.
That said, D3 is not high school football. Take the players that you thought were the...
I dont believe there is any D2 football in Wisconsin. Its Badgers or D3. Whitewater gets alot of Badger cast-offs. Good players but not good enough to ever see a B10 contest.
I dont blame the players. I blame the adults around them. B10 Network -“hey we can make money off of this.” Players are going to want a taste - and no wonder.
Is anyone else surprized at the speed with which NIL has gotten out of hand? D1 football is ruined forever. There’s no going back. If Im going to watch paid football players I guess I’ll take the NFL. Money truly is the root of all evil.
