What can they actually do? What power does the NCAA have to force real change? That moment passed long ago, IMO.
Seems to me it’s only as much change as the collective presidents want, and how many FCS schools will vote to go back to D2? In the same vein, how many G5 schools will vote to go back to FCS?
The only thing they can really do is formally kick FBS football out, and everyone knows that’s coming. I don’t think that will sway any G5 schools right now. The P5 would really have to kick them in the teeth, and I just don’t see that happening.
Just like I think the Big12 isn’t going anywhere, I think people are reading too much into this.
For example - "Two weeks ago, Emmert made headlines when he said it was time to consider a decentralized and deregulated version of college sports that shifted power to conferences and campuses and away from the NCAA. The idea is a sea change for an organization formed 115 years ago that is part of the bedrock of collegiate athletics."

Re: A new and better FBS thread
Where Emmert has real power is the FCS. I could see a split into Spring and Fall (de facto “Big-Boy”) FCS subdivisions with independent championships.
This would solve the problem of always adding teams and nobody ever leaving, as well as other more timely issues. A school like Idaho – for example – would leave their other sports in the Big Sky and join (more academic focused?) CA schools in a new Western Spring FCS conference.
The Montana schools would obviously play in the fall (and for all you folks you keep bringing up the Montana’s to FBS, they opted out of spring because they don’t have IPFs, ffs. NDSU is building one that is P5 quality. That’s your line, right there. You just refuse to see it).

In 2019 the Mountain West season ended on Nov 30th and the conference championship game was December 7th.

So Nov 21 is worst/last day we could play outside , we'd be just fine.
Also, the travel bullshit worry. NDSU to Youngstown, Missouri, Indiana is same as Laramie, Denver, . big deal

Sadly, I still think we may well be too late. We've all (myself included) been in an excited lather over Matt Larson saying that we're in good position to go FBS--thus finally publicly signaling a potential interest in doing so. But that ship may have left port already. FBS conferences are trying to figure out who to raid to make themselves stronger. There's almost zero conversation about FCS pull-ups. We're not really in a position of strength, in the current context, to lobby for an invitation from someone. We should, of course, try. But it is probably a tougher sales pitch now than it has ever been.

Re: A new and better FBS thread
Opportunities like this are going to be missed because NDSU didn't jump up in 2013.
Best team in NDSU history with Carson Wentz just beginning... man. this sucks.
we gotta hope Boise St gets picked up & MWC needs us.

What conference offered in 2013?

Re: A new and better FBS thread
that's when the FULL COURT PRESS by NDSU admin and Media shouldve happened.
HUGE missed opportunity.
We'd be succeeding in the MWC and easily ready for the BIG 12 opening in 2022 !
CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: A new and better FBS thread
Gene Taylor didn't talk to shit. Gene & Bohl wanted that next job and they took the 1st flight out.
They both had identical quotes at their press conferences..'
"why did you leave NDSU?"
"what else was there to do at NDSU"
that was 2013.... siiiiigh.

So let me see if I have this straight.
“Gene was on the first plane out and didnt give a crap about NDSU”
Followed by
“Gene is on the CFB Playoff Selection Committee, and is an inside PLANT to help NDSU”
Need your meds?

You might want to put the shovel down.
This is what happens when you post so much bullshit and lies you cant remember what you said.
Kind of like when you said Sproles, Watson, Mathis and Bussey would be leaving.
Time to back away.

Why would seeing Iowa State ranked make NDSU want to be FBS? Because NDSU beat them 7 years ago?

I'm not on twitter . I'm just surprised OU/TEX just moves & nothing else happened

Who says nothing else has happened? What you should say is that nothing else has been published. Clearly, a ton is happening as a result of the OU/UT move. Most people just know how to shut their fucking traps when the information is sensitive.

Re: A new and better FBS thread
Was looking at the MVFC Preseason All-Conference Team.
It’s interesting to see where Bison players are now - and where they started……
1st Team
Hunter Luepke - UNI offer, 2 stars, #26 ranked prospect in WI
Christian Watson - NDSU was his 1st offer - 6’ 2” 175 - 2 star, #536 FL
Cody Mauch - NDSU PWO - also had a Fighting Hawks PWO
Cordell Volson - Wyoming, Fighting Hawks offers, 2 star
Spencer Waege - SDSU, Buffalo offers (I don’t remember Buffalo, but 247 has it) 2 star
James Kaczor - Brown offer, #16 prospect in Minnesota, 2 star
Michael Tutsie - Air Force, SDSU, Eastern Illinois, Indiana State offers, 2 star, #39 ranked prospect in Indiana
2nd Team Preseason All MVFC
Noah Gindorff - UNI, Fighting Hawks & that famous last minute Gopher offer when Fleck was hired, 3 star, #10 ranked prospect in Minnesota
Eli Mostaert - Air Force, UNI, SDSU, USD offers - 2 star, #21 ranked prospect in Minnesota
Honorable Mention All MVFC
Josh Babicz - Wyoming, Illinois State, SDSU, USD, Missouri State offers - 2 star, #107 ranked prospect in Illinois
Congrats to those players for their achievements!
And I am very happy they committed to a great developmental program!!!
And congrats to the coaches for finding, recruiting, signing and developing these players!

Re: A new and better FBS thread
Mountain West Expansion Probables:
Pros:*NDSU is something of a brand, thanks to its utter domination of FCS football. If the Bison want to take the leap to FBS, the MWC is the logical conference affiliation.
Cons:*There’s no guarantee that the Bison would thrive in FBS football. In terms of other nearby programs, while Boise State has thrived, Wyoming is very much an up-and-down program, and Idaho dropped down, but NDSU is a better program than those 2.

Re: A new and better FBS thread
if this alliance goes and POWER 5 breaks from G5 ..
