Izzo talking once again about the need for the Summit to expand to get back to 10 memebers.

Tell me if reading this article gets you all excited for the conference affiliation NDSU is currently...

You're Zoomin' now!!

Not sure I like that

You would think the same for UND wouldn’t you?

I get why the conference would add hockey but to me it would seem to continue the trend of NDSU being in a conference of schools who are not our peers.

Solid points but like you said the payoff is not worth the expense and cost to other programs.

To look at it simply from a value/business perspective it seems obvious to me the return on that...

I would counter by saying we will get stuck with the other Dakota's and low major regional schools if we bring on hockey. Take whatever money was going to be thrown at hockey and build the basketball...

Illinois Chicago announcing they are moving to the MVC.

I don't want Augi for a number of reason either. Mostly I don't want to have a conference that is consolidated within a few hundred miles. Might make $$ sense but it doesn't make competitive sense to...

Not sure anyone is super worried about WIU leaving. As in if they leave, ok.

Possibly Judy MacLeod - Conference USA

IF it is the XDSU's he is talking about there is a big difference between being concerned they MIGHT leave someday because they are the cornerstone of the league and knowing they are on the verge of...

Agreed. I want nothing to do with the Big Sky.

I agree with the reasoning of wanting to have your conference footprint be in your recruiting footprint but is NDSU really playing games in Wisconsin, Nebraska and Iowa that often now? Yet they are...

Reading a bit into the B1G network it seems some cable companies have it as one of their basic packages and some offer it as a premium upgrade channel. So it depends on the carriage deal with each...

The way it sounded is that the idea was to look for school is major metro areas so I doubt the DSU's are even on that radar.

Didn't want to start a while new thrwead and it's tangentially related I guess.

Rumors MVC is looking to expand and has looked at schools in TX, CO and Tennessee.

Also mentioned among other...

I think they will too but I just don't see them having a roster full of MN kids to do it. They won't get the ones that are going to high majors and are there really that many DI basketball players in...

I think they will do well pretty quickly but 26-3 in D3 means a while lot of nothing in D1 to me. Also recruiting a team of D3 talent all from your state is way easier than fielding a D1 team all...

Well played

Sounds like the Summit is going through the motions in regards to their application and wanting to give them an answer(assumed no) ASAP.

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere yet: Augustana has applied for Summit membership

I think it boils down to a couple of main points. One you pointed out, why would NDSU willingly create a competitor for resources within our footprint. Two, the idea to so many that DI is supposed to...

So the entire conference would go FBS together?

So UND is moving West?
