Scholarships don't mean a thing. Well, that's not totally true, but to some degree it is. Look at Mt. Union, they could compete in the Sun Belt, yet they don't offer scholarships. I play DIII soccer, we beat a DII school today who does offer scholarships. The quality of players is the same, it just boils down to how "marketed" the players were in HS. In some cases, I actually think DIII is better than DII and NAIA. This is coming from the guy whose school was ran up and down the field last week against E&H, but whatever.
