Whereas the growth at the D1 college level has slowed compared to the first half of this decade. IIRC, there were at least 10 new programs between 2010 and 2015 inclusive in Division 1. Since then, there have been four new Division 1 programs -- and that number includes two new programs this year.

The end result is greater parity at the D1 level. That trend is likely to continue as well, given that there are only two new Division 1 programs on tap in the foreseeable future.
