You folks here are quite confident that your school is upper level G5 caliber now.
I am not advocating for you to join CUSA but no matter where you go, the good programs eventually get better opportunities. If you are as great as you claim, CUSA is not a dead end..It is a bridge.
Either you believe you are destined for the big time or you don't..
Lol worked out for Idaho. And NDSU obviously has fewer connections with MWC schools than Idaho did.
CUSA in its current state is not a better place for NDSU than the MVFC/Summit. Maybe someday it will be, but there's more urgency on CUSA to get itself to proven viability than there is urgency on NDSU to accept an offer to a conference that is all but DOA at FBS. We'd be lucky to land back in the MVFC with our program intact. Very hard to recover from that, just ask Idaho. I'd rather convince the top halves of MVFC and Big Sky to move up together and just call ourselves FBS. That might be what happens anyways.
Thinking NDSU would be a strong G5 program is not the same thing as thinking NDSU should throw their lot in with just whoever. In fact, SHSU, JSU and whoever else probably joined CUSA because they aren't confident they're going to be a strong G5 program.

NDSU does NOT belong in FCS since 2013. it's beyond time to end this charade & do whatever it takes to get into the mountain west. make some backroom deals, send hookers, anything FFS

Damn straight. Don’t wait on this. If I’m not mistaken, the Shocker AD got fired because he didn’t take NIL seriously. NDSU needs to be on this yesterday

Better than living in the sewer that is FCS football.

This is the equivalent to D2 dropping scholarship numbers back in the 90s and suddenly we weren't as talented.

What's the deal? Hey we have not much to offer your conference in all sports. Take us in and make your conference an odd number.
What a great deal for them.

we have a lot to offer. especially in All Sports. NDSU would dominate these regional pud schools in Recrutiing for baseball track soccer softball volleyball. PLUS we could use UNI SDSU usd und Montanas as our minor leagues and pluck 1-2 top players per year off or them
a chance to say you are FBS & play Power 5 teams in OOC.

MWC doesn't give a shit about any of that. In particular the final sentence.
Re: A new and better FBS thread
I would think now more than ever the MWC cares about stability. Which school(s) do they believe can give them that longish term? Who knows.
