They have around 10K students. Worth noting a lot of folks might prefer to stay closer to home as well.

Well down here in the Twin Cities area we have heard of St. Thomas. One reason a person might choose it is quality of education. According to the ranking referenced in the two links below St. Thomas is ranked well above NDSU but also well behind UofM.

If the U of M is afraid of St. Thomas going D1, THEY have no business being D1.

Re: St. Thomas to FCS
FCS adding St thomas to pioneer does nothing for anyone. just adds a non con beatdown
I think they will get bored of PFL in about 2 seconds flat and be looking for greener pastures very quickly.
Adding them to a scholarship league sends shockwaves throughout the FCS. the landscape would change RAPIDLY if they were to go MVFC..
We'll see what happens!
1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
3. It's time to go FBS

Siting earlier posts about their fanbase and funding... I think their chances of being relevant in the Pioneer quickly are pretty good. They get an autobid every year, so you never know...

As long as they can beat San Diego, they'll be in Fargo the first Friday in December for perpetuity.
