The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Football Championship Subdivision (I FCS) includes 128 teams. Each team has one head coach.[1] As of the upcoming 2022 season, Division I FCS is composed of 15 conferences: the ASUN Conference, Big Sky Conference, Big South Conference, Colonial Athletic Association (CAA), Ivy League, Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), Missouri Valley Football Conference (MVFC), Northeast Conference (NEC), Ohio Valley Conference (OVC), Patriot League, Pioneer Football League, Southern Conference (Southern, or SoCon), Southland Conference, Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC), and Western Athletic Conference (WAC). The WAC, which had last played football in Division I FBS in 2012, resumed football sponsorship in the 2021 season, but at the FCS level. The newest FCS league is the ASUN Conference, which technically started sponsoring football in 2021 but does not start full conference play until 2022.
In the 2021 season, all schools including St. Thomas (MN) are members of one of these conferences. St. Thomas left Division III after its expulsion from the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, announced in 2019, took effect and joined the Pioneer Football League after successfully receiving a waiver for a direct move to Division I in 2020.
As of the start of the 2022 season, the longest-tenured coaches in Division I FCS are expected to be Kevin Callahan of Monmouth and Jim Parady of Marist, who have been head coaches at their respective schools since 1992. In all, 22 FCS programs had new head coaches in 2022.
Conference affiliations are current for the upcoming 2022 season.
