    Does this mean it's NDSU to the valley, UND to Summit as replacement

    I assumed for their up and coming *football* program. Is AAC really a step up from the MVC?

    The MVC would only want us when we no longer want them. Lose of Creighton, loss of WSU,...

    Would be fun to be in 'the' mid-major conference. But the MVC is for the most part a bus conference, and has a lot of vocal private members.

    Scrooge-"And the Union workhouses." . "Are they still in operation?". "Both very busy, sir..."
    "Those who are badly off must go there."

    The article stated the Horizon is, but UNO has been mentioned elsewhere as a possible expansion candidate to the MVC, with ORU, Oakland, Valpo, Belmont, Saint Louis U. Its all speculation though, probably find out Sunday a bit more in the Direction the MVC is going as they are holding an emergency meeting of Presidents in St. Louis.

    Some have reported possible expansion by 3 schools, some have said zero. I doubt they wouldn't add anyone as that is a sure fire miss and totally Idiotic thing to do.
