Dude, that's the equivalent of saying Jim Delany has no control over the Big 10. You know, they guy who said the Big 10 schools were no longer allowed to schedule FCS teams. Patty has a lot of pull in the MVFC. It's been that way since its inception in 1982.

And he doesn't. You think that was his idea alone? Come on man! Every conference is controlled by their member institutions. It isn't the commissioner pulling the strings.

Member institutions have votes on certain issues, but the commissioner runs the conference. If not, then why have one? Right now, you're just arguing to argue.

They vote on everything. The commish is the spokesperson and arbitrator, nothing more. Pot meet kettle?:)

Remind me again when did the MVFC schools get together and vote on the possible inclusion of WSU football, or did Patty pretty much tell WSU to go pound sand on her own?

How do you know they didn't? You do know the Presidents have many meetings thru the year right? I think they even have weekly call in sessions.

If it would have brought up for discussion, like any possible school entering the MVFC, the media would have talked about it, and therefore, so would have we here on Bisonville. Instead, all the media talked about was WSU showing off a helmet in their desire to being a more attractive addition to a bigger conference by adding football, and Patty saying no because the MVC didn't want to lose WSU without a fight.

There was never a discussion because it never got to that point. No vote needed.

Which proves my point that WSU was shut down by the MVC from adding football.
