    Utah is the only school who moved up from the MW to a P-5 conference.

    TCU was in the Big East when they went to the B12

    BYU has been an independent for more than 10 years..

    The MW is not quite the stepping stone you believe it to be.

    Marshall went to the CUSA. Not convinced that was a step up. Temple was only a football affiliate. No other full member has left since the 50s. MAC rivals the Big 10 for core member stability.

    MWC still looks like the best stepping stone.
    Better conferences don't need any more schools with directions or cities in their names. Besides, the MAC is made up of generally uninspiring institutions (otherwise, we would have been invited long ago). So, other than NIU, I'm not sure any current schools have ever sought to improve their situation.
    I don't care what Jim says. That is not the real Ben Franklin. I'm 99% certain.

    MAC might not have good football schools but they are outstanding research universities. Very well respected academically. We should be proud if they considered us a peer.

    This is meth country thanks to Scotties Barn Meth(tm). Now 22% fentanyl free.

    Lol I'd suggest looking up the Conference USA Marshall joined, not the Conference USA of today.

    Either way, its a moving goalpost. A ticket to FBS is a ticket to FBS.
