Of course El Chapo on Bisonville believes it will be the AAC https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?u...source=app

Chapo is their blow hard who tries to stir the pot, in the past 6 months he also advocated Indy and CUSA. Majority of their fanbase doesn't see eye to eye with him. He got shot down when he posted this idea over on AAC board. Geography is still a factor there imo, and the two conferences NDSU might join are MWC or MAC. Other schools aren't eager to travel to frigid Fargo.

Montana/Montana St may be added by MWC first, better geographic fits and larger fanbases. Both have >20k attendance and great facilities, #2 and #3 in FCS attendance after Jackson St.

MWC commissioner on record recently saying they do not want to expand to 16, they would prefer to stay at around 10-12 schools. At least 12 schools have inquired about potential membership. NDSU has a chance, but I don't think they are necessarily the top option.

Its possible UTEP or NMSU join MWC, and Texas St might be offered if MWC still wants to be in Texas.
