Probably a dumb question, but I'm sincere in asking it.
Is there a scenario in which we end up in CUSA? I know the conventional wisdom is with MWC or MAC. But CUSA is quite possibly going to be clobbered through all the realignment. If so, they are going to need schools and may need to abandon regional thinking. Most importantly, we may still be in need of an FBS conference when the dust starts settling. Could NDSU go there, dominate immediately, and help resurrect the CUSA brand?
Might happen, I've also seen people talk about rumblings of the G5 conferences wanting to realign everything based on geography since there's so much overlap going on through the Sun Belt, CUSA, AAC footprints. Probably doesn't help NDSU since we don't fit nicely into any of the potential groupings, but I suppose you could make the argument that NDSU could slide into a Texas-based conference.Quote:

MWC= most sense , peer land grants, rivalries on day 1, geographic
CUSA= they would need a football only 1 off, NDSU would fit that bill
MAC= could work, but MAC wants no part of NDSU football
AAC = football only perhaps
Big 12 = promise of new stadium and all sports!

Ohio state doesn’t want us anywhere near the B1G because they know we’d take their easy path to the “playoff” away.Quote:
