Equivalency Sports, headcount Sports, & Roster Caps

Post by BlueHenBill »

Here is a link to an explanation of College Div I Equivalency Sports vs. Headcount Sports -

Here is a link to the former and current NCAA Div I roster caps by sport -

What I would like to be able to find out is what are the roster caps and number of schollies offered by UD and UD's conference opponents (in CUSA (FB, W Soccer, W Cross Country, W Volleyball, M/W Basketball, Baseball, Softball, M/W Tennis, M/W Golf, W T&F), A-Sun (Women's Lax & M/W Swim & Diving), A-10 (M Lax), Atlantic Hockey (Women's Ice Hockey), Summit League (M Soccer), Mid-American (W Rowing), Top Field Hockey Conference(s) (UD is independent). I believe that we can safely assume that UD's roster caps for each sport are the former roster caps. But what roster caps are UD's conference opponents using? Also, how many full or equivalent schollies is UD allocating to each sport in comparison to their conference opponents? Does anyone have any reasonable suggestions as to how this info could be obtained? Even if we were to get allof this info, we probalby cpuldn't find out how UD compares to conference opponents in terms of NIL $ per sport.
