Being a D2 dad I would say I am bias towards D2 but I honestly believe that D2 is not as far behind D1 as it would seem to some. I will just give you a couple of comparisons from our perspective. We are a borderline top 25 D2 team (in and out last year and in the others preseason this year). Before the season starts we always scrimmage a D1 team from our area indoors(New England) and an honest eye test would tell you they are very evenly matched. This D1 team has played 2 top 25 D1s in the country and beaten one and lost 1-0 to the other. Also a team from our league went D1 two years ago. They were about a .600 winning % team in our league and now they are about a .500 team in D1. And we whipped up on them last fall. Not saying the talent is the same or even close but there are cases to say they are not so far apart.
