2020 Valparaiso Crusaders football team2021 Valparaiso University football team (spring) – The school announced that the Crusader name will be dropped. Additionally, the season will be played in spring 2021 with a season played in fall 2021 as well.

  • Oppose addition of unnecessary parenthetical qualifier "(spring)" as long as the base name without the qualifier — 2021 Valparaiso University football team — remains as a redlink. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 21:09, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: There are two points of discussion here: whether to keep "Crusaders", and how to refer to the spring season. The former is linked to an existing RM on Talk:Valparaiso Crusaders men's basketball, and the latter would break precedent of the other teams playing only in the spring, which use 2020.

  • Oppose for two reasons. The first is that all FCS team seasons that were originally scheduled to be played in the fall of 2020 (the vast majority of which are now set to play in the spring of 2021) retain the original naming convention of "2020 TEAM NICKNAME football team", and there is no need to single out Valparaiso for a change against such precedent. The second is in response to Roman Spinner's point above - 2021 Valparaiso Crusaders football team (or 2021 Valparaiso University football team, or whatever other name we end up using) will be bluelinked once Valpo's 2021 spring season ends and their regular fall 2021 schedule is out. I would support a move to 2020 Valparaiso University football team if and when Valparaiso Crusaders and its corresponding sport-specific pages are moved to reflect the "Crusader" nickname being dropped.
