I was the PA announcer when the WV Lightning beat a team from somewhere in Michigan named the thunder for the "so Called" semi-pro Super Bowl. Do I get a ring?A national championship is a national championship.
A national championship is a national championship.
Ask me who the national champion was in 1992 and 1996 and I'll tell you it was good ole Marshall U.Ask 100 people “who won the national championship in football”and, even in Fargo, 99 will say “LSU”. Without looking it up, nobody can tell you who won the lower division championships in any sport, and outside of their fan bases, nobody really cares. “He was on the NAIA basketball national champions back in 15” is something they say during a lull in the action. Nothing more.
I could start a thread and say “Texas Tech won the national championship last year” and all the anti-Doc crew would jump right on me, as they always do and gleefully tell me it was Virginia. But not even our resident mental defective would not say, “no, it was Northwest Missouri State” or “it was Wisconsin-Oshkosh” or “it was Georgetown of Kentucky”.
His sister started at Florida as a true freshman, then transferred to a D3 and won a few national championships there too."I was like, man, we can't lose," Thaddeus said of his thoughts when the Tigers were trailing by 10 in the first half. "A Moss finally has to win something."

I agree with GreenDuke. The general public doesn't pay any attention to the 1AA championships and consider them below even the most minor bowl game.

And anybody outside of the Marshall community would laugh at you for doing so.
Well, everybody INSIDE the Marshall community is laughing at you.And anybody outside of the Marshall community would laugh at you for doing so.

Her championships were nullified due to her being an illegal player under the NCAA rules of transfer, etc.His sister started at Florida as a true freshman, then transferred to a D3 and won a few national championships there too.
You don't think Kentucky still counts their championships? The schools and fans still count them. Nobody remembers probationHer championships were nullified due to her being an illegal player under the NCAA rules of transfer, etc.

Then why in the hell do people think MU should move down to said, unrecognized or at least barely recognized, level of football?
People don't think that. They are proving a point about how poorly the current administration has done with Marshall football.
You are usually pretty safe guessing Mount Union won the Div III title.Ask 100 people “who won the national championship in football”and, even in Fargo, 99 will say “LSU”. Without looking it up, nobody can tell you who won the lower division championships in any sport, and outside of their fan bases, nobody really cares.
Actually Mt Union has fallen on hard times. They have only 1 championship in the past 4 years.You are usually pretty safe guessing Mount Union won the Div III title.
