So why is Army listed with all the standings I've seen, but the six "minor"
Independents aren't?  If the six "minor" independents aren't eligible for
the Div I tourney (playing less than 20 games against other Div I's?  Will
Army play 20 games against Div I's?), why are they Div I in the first
place?
