Does anyone know when the schedule is coming out ? I thought it was going to be out in mid November. I have a feeling that there are more teams joining the league that is why it is taking them so long.

It's kind of turning into an "Embarassment Of Riches" situation.
The league management thought things were nicely balanced at 20 teams. Then 22. Then 23. Then 24.
Now it's looking like at least 2 teams (possibly as many as 5) might bolt from the af1's Tier 2 and want to join the IFL. So they're holding off with announcing a division allignments and schedules till they have that little situation covered.

So there's enough teams for the IFL to set up a minor league system?:o

I wouldn't go that far. But if IFL has 2.5 times the number of teams that af1 has ... And if it has more than half as many former AF2 teams as af1 has ... It's going to be damn hard for af1 to make any sort of solid claim trhat it is the "major" league.
It might be paying its player's a bit more but even with what it's proposing to pay, most of the talent in each league will still be semi-local.
