So... yea that's what I have figured out from me digging around. Ill delete this post once someone actually from 254 gives a better response.

We have been lucky that our school is committing a lot of resources to their STEM programs, including FRC. This has given the team more resources on campus. We still have a strong partnership with NASA, as we always have.
971 has been an official "house team" for the last few years. I don't know if the robotics.nasa.gov link is current but it lists 842 for NURC, not FRC. 842 has never used the NASA lab.
254 has had a long running relationship with 971. We helped with a design review for them in 2007/2008 and have been close since then, often bouncing design or strategy ideas off each other, sharing prototype results, etc. In 2015 we collaborated on the design and manufacturing of our can grabbers for championships, which was a lot of fun.
