    Yeah, but most Bisonvillers live in the past and are excited about going in reverse, keeping status quo, and never taking risks. They can't wait for the Summit to add Augustana. And they will attack anyone who doesn't share their views.

Fargodome has 19,000 every game that would rank #4 in MWC conference and a FBS push might produce a new stadium!

    Basketball program has been to Big Dance 5 of 11 years and beat #5 Oklahoma and has a new 5800 facility

    Olympic sports such as Softball, Track, Golf, Baseball would compete day 1.

    Travel to Fargo via Denver daily, Las Vegas couple times a week makes that worry moot.
    Academics are missing from your argument. I don't know where NDSU compares to the MW schools, but it has to be a main focal point when discussing admission into their group.

    The MWC is a horrific conference for NDSU. You want NDSU spending all their money on travel while the programs go to shit? Good plan.

    I'd rather NDSU goes indy and keeps the other sports in the Summit League. At least they'd have a chance at making that work financially. Slim I know especially having to buy home games but it's gotta be better then flying all of the other sports all over the west.

    Face the facts until there is another FBS conference in the upper midwest NDSU isn't going anywhere.

    Maybe not possible, but is there any way the best of the MVFC and Big Sky could break off to form their own FBS conference?

    That would be the ideal situation but I don't believe you can do that until all schools are FBS. Meaning they would have to move to FBS as independents and then eventually form a conference. The problem is there aren't enough schools that are FBS ready or willing to make the move. Ideally the state flagship schools along with a few others petition the NCAA for a waiver to go FBS independent, form a scheduling alliance with each other and promise a to stick to it and form the conference eventually.

    Mountain West is for the best. You get in there, then work on a 45,000 on campus stadium that's semi enclosed to keep the wind out, and keep ALL revenue, then have success for 5 years then BumRush the Big 12.

    that's the End game, and every year we delay it, we sink in the tar pits with und and D3 st thomas
    NDSU TO FBS. HAVEN'T WE WON ENOUGH?

    It would be nice if this was even a possibility. However, there are very good teams in G5 conferences that are far better prepared to do this and cannot get it done. I highly doubt programs like UCF, Boise State, Houston, Colorado State, and Cincinnati are content with being left out of P5 conferences.
