Douple has already been on record that there were other regional schools that were interested in moving up behind the scene. If your Douple, doubling down on MN and grabbing SCSU and UST makes sense for the Summit. Again, there will be those on here that cheer for another regional rivalry like we got with UMKC and UST. SCSU to the Summit would be the last straw for me, what a joke and it IS going to happen. Somebody check on Lakes.
Don't throw any BS my way about how they are broke, indifferent and can't afford it. Omaha claimed to be in massive financial trouble as well in the months leading up to their move. SCSU is following the same playbook. They will sell it that there is more revenue at D1 and that without the albatross of football, they can do it. I will put my tin foil hat back on now...tell me I'm wrong though.
Well they are better than Augie but that isn't saying much.
NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.
