Nope, I really don't think the conferences will change that view on all sports membership, but would love to be proven wrong. Some of them (AAC and CUSA) like to brag about their basketball and care about that also. MAC to a lesser degree. And I think even the football centric SBC will be hesitant to add someone who only brings competition for that CFP bid. This might make a move anywhere harder, but especially if they aren't backfilling a vacancy.
The thing to remember here is you are also asking a conference like CUSA to split their CFP payout (all conferences get a slice) more ways, thus asking them to take a paycut on one of their few revenue sources. Probably less significant with a conference that has a good media deal.
If the MWC or MAC offers, I don't give a single damn if we have travel partner but the FCS forever crew will be clinging to the ambitionless SDSU if that happens.
NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.
this is fucking ridiculous
in 2024 the CFP WILL TAKE A G5
NDSU NEEDS TO BE IN A G5 IN 2 YEARS.
OR FIRE MATT LARSON/DAVID COOK ON THE SPOT
NDSU TO FBS. HAVEN'T WE WON ENOUGH?
