It is the original HBCU poll that separates the rankings (since 2003) of NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II and NAIA Division I member HBCU institutions into two distinct categorical polls: Major and Mid-Major (This format is unlike the historic SBN Football Poll). The Major Division Poll, consist of NCAA Division I Basketball programs and the Mid-Major Division Poll, which consist of NCAA Division II, NAIA Division I and NAIA Division II programs. This format introduced to the public based on the request of Black College blogging fans and on the research that consists of data mining and the difference in scholarship limitation and requirements beset by NCAA and NAIA bylaws (i.e. NCAA Division I - 15, NCAA Division II - 10, NAIA Division I - 11 and NAIA Division II - 6).
