Your point is valid, however, the MAC is also a who's who of nobodies, as is the Sunbest, conf. USA, etc. I think the only conference I'd be remotely interested in is MWC and NDSU has a facility problem for that. As it is, I think it makes sense to see how the D1 shake up goes down, and have plans for FargoDome expansion when the opportunity strikes.

I guess I can rest my case, and even UNLV was not in the same conference as most of the current MWC schools when they were good 25 yrs ago, think the were in Big west or something like that

Yes this is true him and barriero think the same, MWC has plenty of good names. A better question is will anyone invite NDSU because I'd say Mac/MWC would be afraid to for competition reasons, and travel and tv

Think I can't figure out dragonsfan, is why even consider the MAC? I can understand the MWC. MAC is beneath NDSU.

Ok point taken, peer institutes-land grants in the MWC right?

Not in our foot print.

So big 10 is only FBS in "NDSU footprint?"

How did the sagarin thread become the "move to FBS" thread?
