Unfortunately, many of the posters in this thread seem to think there is a definitive cutoff between a D1 talent and a D3 talent....when in reality there is some absolute overlap.
This little data exercise should really make some heads explode. Rating the top 500 college teams across all divisions.

This can't be accurate!! LOL
Seriously, it seems non-crazy, although certainly not precise. The top D3 team, Cal Lu, is rated as the 202nd best team in the country.
I was having a conversation recently where I said that UC San Diego (D2) would probably beat the bottom 100 D1 teams, but this indicates I was being too harsh on UC San Diego, as this has them at #73.

My eyes immediately went to the first team not in NCAA D1, which is Chipola College at #32. I thought that was pretty nuts, but after finding that they had 10 guys drafted from their 2017 roster, maybe not so nuts.
