The MWC will never take an FCS team, not NDSU not either Montana school. If they expand they are going to Texas, that's a lock. The Sun Belt are a now regional conference uninterested in bringing in anyone outside their footprint (see NMSU, Idaho being dumped).

NDSU is in FCS and they aren't leaving anytime soon.

UND should've been added to the Summit and MVFC when USD was. That always should've been the case, and glad that a glaring mistake is being corrected.




NoDak,

You will now be forced to admit the following truth: if there any new FBS conference in the west in the future, it will either have to be: i) without North Dakota, or ii) including both UND and NDSU, at least, and probably SDSU and USD too.

Impossible to get around that. You can try to lie, but it will be a naked lie.

So admit it and move on. No response defaults to you admitting it. 03-thumbsup

Strange how NDSU got out of scheduling a fb game at UND for 17 years. Now that fb is restored prominently in Fargo again, apparently they will play at UND. The MVFC was steadfast against more than 10 members back when UND applied earlier, yet it's OK with it now.

I have admitted that I erroneously thought boosters would have sponsored a remodel of our on campus stadium to get to FBS. Apparently that is not enough for you.

My biggest fear is that NDSU will now get the only FBS slot for the Dakotas. Before you recently only very reluctantly say a WAC FBS is possible, but that will certainly be shut down. Now all the Dakota schools are going FBS?
The WAC option hasn't been closed, as much as you despise that.

It has for UND and it will never open for NDSU. They are NOT going to the WAC.
