Face it, travel to Florida is much cheaper that to the Dakotas and much better for recruiting and alumni interest. W Ill and IPFW have been facing major budget crisis, so that's further ammunition to make a change. The IP's have been itching to leave since they got Summit membership, or in the case of W Ill, every founding member has left them. W Ill ideally wants to protect its membership in the MVFC, nothing else much matters. They have never been to a dance in almost 50 years at DI.

When those three go, getting a DII moveups doesnt do anything for the Summit, as the transitions takes too long. UND won't join a six team league unless reinforcements from established DI's are coming. UND will be sitting in the cat bird seat, much to the chagrin of the other Dakotas.

If UMKC repents and comes back, the WAC is suddenly in trouble. Either way one conference loses its autobid unless the Big Sky gives up schools.

Western Illinois, IPFW or IUPUI are going to the A Sun?

Really? The BSC have basically said, don't let the door hit you in the ass. What is UND going to do? Pull a George Costanza and not leave?

You have way too much time on your hands. Have you already forgotten the two year WAC FBS fiasco you made a fool out of yourself by playing up? How about the, UND will never got to the Summit? I would suggest you take the next 6 months off of posting. Your theories are back to crazy land again.

Oh, budget crisis? Does UND not have one? And now you have a Title IX complaint?

Some people are just emotionally invested in the Summit. Can you imagine that?
