-UST has a profile more similar to Creighton than St. Marys in Winona MN. UST outgrew the MIAC.
-UST will become just the 2nd Minnesota school at the division 1 level. Many Minnesota athletes populating the D1 programs of the surrounding states might like staying closer to home.
-The Northern Sun Conference (D2) didn't want to be a half-way house for UST for a few years.
-I also think Denver is a winner in this. The Summit adds a high quality private to the roster. That might make Denver feel better about the neighborhood.
(Now if the Summit could only get Drake.... nah, ain't gonna happen.)

All of this.
