My impression was that UAH, Bemidji and Findlay (and Bentley and
Mercyherst) are still considered Division II this year, as AIC and
Sacred Heart were last season.  This is in contrast with
Nebraska-Omaha, which was Division I but under probation (so not
tournament-eligible, and not contributing to the RPI etc) for their
first two seasons of play.  (I'm guessing the distinction is between a
team which plays in the lower divisions for a long time and then moves
up to D1 and a team like UNO which starts NCAA competition at the
Division I level.)
