This seems like a nice, reasonable approach to the topic.
Asked about FBS, he did not duck the topic.
Rather than saying NDSU is actively trying to leave the MVFC,
it allows for the idea that NDSU would be interested in moving up.
Why say you are actively trying to leave the MVFC when there is no where to go? But, in the unlikely case the MWC needs a team, they know NDSU is interested......but they probably knew that already
It also might help bring in the MWC media to the idea.....
