Some details from Pete Thamel. $100k is the amount in dispute.

I think it’s great! No one ever told their leadership to not reach out to the conference first. According to our AD who is super smart and knows everything, they’ve broken the unwritten rule and can never get into the conference. Idiots!

Either -
A) UNLV, who pays their coach $1.75m/yr welched on a star QB recruit.
and/or
B) A P4 team saw his performance, and stepped in with a much bigger offer mid-season.
The lies and tampering is getting out of control on all sides.
Imagine if similar things start happening during CFP and impacting game results. It likely will, because entire G5 teams were strip mined by P4 during bowl season last year.

At this point in time, anyone who is defending the AD or NDSU Prez is just a boot licker.

To reinforce your point, an entire undefeated P5 school was strip mined during bowl season

Yesterday’s show was very informative.
I believe they are on board and just working behind the scenes. His comments made a lot of sense. And of course nothing is automatic or guaranteed.
People are just understandably frustrated that this is not something NDSU can fully control the outcome of. We are somewhat at the mercy of what develops out of all the conference power struggles.
We need an outcome where enough MW schools leave that they must backfill with FCS teams, but not so many that the conference dies entirely.
We need UNLV and AFA to leave for better odds. If they keep 7 schools, and only need to add one more, there are several FBS schools they can take from Texas or CUSA to get to 8. Then we have to hope they expand for safety reasons or because the media contract would grow. That could take a while.
