    All your answers are in it.. NDSU should've been in FBS in 2013 (even turned down the MAC then supposedly)

    and YES NDSU NEEDS AN INVITE SO WHAT THE HELL ARE MATT LARSON AND DEAN B DOING?

    Matt Entz and the coaches WANT TO BE IN THE FBS! its a shame that Matt doesn't want to take the risk and Dean B is about 2-3 years from Retirement.

    GO SOLICIT AN INVITE TO THE MOUNTAIN WEST ALREADY!!
    I have asked you this repeatedly but you never answer-----------What do you expect NDSU to do when nobody want us in their conference? And dont say you need to sell NDSU or ML needs to call. Again----when no conferences offer you to join them---what is NDSU supposed to do?????

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    Talking and offers are two different animals. With NDSU contacting the MAC Im sure they were the ones who poo pooed it. But I seriously doubt you have 2 credible sources who would tell you anything.

    First, I call bullshit on the MAC invite. Second, how excited would you be about Wednesday night games and road games with 0 fans.

    no one is gonna OFFER NDSU because THEY DON'T SEE NDSU ADMIN PUBLICALLY PUSHING FOR ONE!

    its quite simple

    MAC invite wasn't public, it was behind the scenes. focus on the Mountain West or AAC people. FOCUS!!
    NDSU TO FBS. HAVEN'T WE WON ENOUGH?

If/when the p5 breaks off, then we can have a legitimate discussion as realignment among the remaining FBS and FCS will occur. Until then, there is nothing to talk about. Just declaring you are going FBS doesn't make conferences want to extend an offer. Its kind of like stating “I’m single and available” and then hoping Margot Robbie calls you up!!!
    Sorry, ^^^^^^ this! Unless you want to be an independent! Stop the nonsense. However, there is an increased sense in the athletic dept that after this COVID thing there is an increased urgency to move up if/when possible.

    And there has never been a MAC invite!

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
