All this may be true. But two things stand out.

1) Networking < > Education. Most people would admit that alumni networks are more important than curricular mastery in getting the plum jobs described here. It helps to be part of the club.

2) This job data would still hold if the Ivies were playing Division III instead of FCS. The truth of the matter is that without playoffs and NIL/scholarships, we are already closer to D3 than D1. The arguments for keeping up with the Joneses is to avoid the slide to D3 irrelevance. Which may be what the (interim) presidents - and many here - want in the end.
