Exeter-Milligan-Friend Bobcats

Wow....just a few years ago both of these schools were top tier programs. Glad they could make this work though, probably saved one if not both of their programs.

They do not have a grace period of 2 years. The only teams that are eligible for a 2-year playoff exemption because of an enrollment too high are teams that had been previously established and eligible in the prior cycle. Exter-Milligan-Friend was not an established team in the last cycle, therefore, they do not get a 2-year exemption.
 
They can take a 2 year grace period to get their numbers down and still be playoff eligible
I'm not sure that this is true. I think the grace period would only apply to an existing school or co-op. That said I think we're going to find that a lot of schools are eligible for 8 man in this next cycle that we aren't expecting because we just don't have the data of the male population.
