A new and better FBS thread

I don't know how much attention Kennesaw will get in the Atlanta media.

Like Indy said, "It's for recruiting and alumni development."
Otherwise, your point stands: You'll see UGA, GT; You won't be seeing KSU highlights at 6, 9, and 10 pm.

Oddly enough NDSU and SDSU presidents refute the former Montana AD claims. But I’m sure since mcfeely wrote it it’s wrong.

My take. NDSU has somehow let MWC know it is interested in discussing membership if a spot opens. NDSU would be first interested in football-only membership so it could go alone, but if MWC insisted on all-sports NDSU and SDSU would have to go together as travel partners.

It's pretty easy to answer whether "you" have been having conversation with another conference if of course you haven't and all conversations are run through a third party.

when did presidents & ad's turn into political hacks. this is pathetic.

THERE'S NOTHING WRONG YOU DIP$HITS WITH SAYING

"HECK YEA We'd Love to be in the Mountain West, or BIG 12 or BIG 10 but no invite has come as of yet from either"


instead we get this pussyfooting wordsalad bullshit.

I think he was just reporting what was said on Dom Izzo's Hot Mic show which would make the former AD at Montana wrong.

If the members of the MW want you they will invite you. Keeping any and all negotiations on the down low is normal business practice. I am sure NDSU knows what the MW is looking for and the MW already knows what NDSU wants.

The MW already knows what they are going to do under any scenario.

We should get some clarity today about San Diego State. I have no idea what is going on in that negotiation but were I guess the outcome, SDSU will probably stick around for 2 more seasons to avoid the 35 million dollar exit fee. I suspect SDSU will have to provide some concession in return for that.

The trickle down from realignment that occurs may open doors for expansion. Schools are moving around all over.

Yeah. And there has to be some level of truth to it - that NDSU has expressed interest at a minimum. Whether that fits the definition of “active” can be sliced about 100 different ways.

Or the guy is just a pathological liar

Yep, and that’s the standard way this is done. Lots of reasons to not make it public until it’s a done deal. Third party messengers also let them side step FOIA type requests.

San Diego St to the PAC is the exception, not the rule, and it created a huge mess for them with all the letters and parsing of whether they are actually leaving or staying. Normally nothing is said until you have a deal to move. Just creates headaches if it doesn’t work out with conference mates and the fanbase.
