Toledo is literally in the Eastern time zone, the MWC is going to stretch four time zones. But to go football only would mean putting other sports in a completely different conference as well because the MAC will tell them to hit the road. So you are going to park your other sports in the Horizon league just to play football across four times zones...doubt that is happening.

But we've got an east cost ad. That should count.

Fan experience though, you should be pulling for us... We're a good time.

There is literally no benefit and all cost for all parties involved. There’s no way this is real lol

There’s a better chance that the MW pays Colorado State to come back from the PAC

I hope ML gets a MAAC invite. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on. He’s sucked the life out of NDSU athletics.

Well I feel played, our admin is doing what they do best. Absolutely nothing.

I liked being in a conference with UTEP..I like the area around San Marcos..So I will say UTEP and TXST. But nobody is asking me..

Rumor on a forum somewhere? This is a very odd one.
The idea being its the best FBS teams they can find to add?

At least it would make the MAC more open for business.


Edit - well holy shit, it might be real

I saw it from Dennis Dodd of CBS..Pete Thamel of ESPN mentioned NIU as well.

So maybe this expands the MW footprint and is what gets us in the door.
We would no longer be an outlier.

All depends on what else MW has in mind.
The rumor says football only for those two, so must be more to come.
