Just curious about how this relates to softball.
I've heard coaches call certain colleges mid-majors. What determines a mid-major? Is it simply conference or does the number of students attending the school or how much money the school is endowed with factor in? I've always assumed that every school in the larger conferences were majors, i.e. PAC-12, Big-12, Big-10, SEC and ACC. Does that mean every other D1 conference or school is a mid-major? Or is there a thing as a lower-major school?
