Mr. Delany should contact the English Dept. in one of their schools. They have set up a class system here.
Gee, North / South—-East / West has worked for years

Legends a story that has been passed down for generations,
especially one that is presented as history but is unlikely to be true
a group of stories presented as history but unlikely to be true
a popular myth that has arisen in modern times

Leaders somebody who guides or directs others
somebody or something in front of all others, e.g. in a race or procession
somebody in charge of others the head of a nation, political party,
legislative body, or military unit

The name’s are stupid because the divisions are stupid. They should have learned from the ACC that non geographic splits don’t make sense. Who can remember (or really care) which team is in which division? Thankfully, the SEC got it right the 1st time!

What is hard about keeping it simple. Division names are traditionally regional. Stick with what works.

Maybe the “Used-to-be’s” and “Never-will-be’s” has a good ring to it..

Those name rate up there with Dumb and Dumber. Why not have a contest to come up with new names? Might I suggest ….the split into 3 divisions and call the Lions, tigers and Bears….Oh my…LMAO!!!!

Maybe they should consider accurate division names. I recommend “Seconds” and “Also-rans.”
