SDSU clearly likes where they are at, in a similar spot that we once were in but that can change in a hurry.

[ByeSonBusiness]

yep, same but NDSU is in a small METRO not a 50mile away satellite town.

not at all saying they couldn't join, but for anyone to think Brookings is more attractive is just absurd

Clemson is a satellite the size of Jamestown. Is Fargo more attractive than Clemson? Perhaps we should call the ACC.

It is not if he is referring to 1.5 million people. It's a combined statistical area of ten(!!!) counties. Do you know what is included in the Fargo CSA? Wahpeton. A town an hour away.

You win, CSA and MSA are different.

I've been stuck on I-85 at different times of the day between Greenville and Spartanburg. It's especially bad when Michelin and BMW are having a shift change. I've also been at stoplights for 3-4 cycles in Greer and Duncan on multiple occasions before getting through it. It seemed pretty damn metro to me. Greenville County has 558,000. It's a metro. Clemson is only 30 miles from Greenville.

I'm confused....Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson is the CSA, but Greenville-Anderson-Greer, which includes Clemson, is in the MSA....or am I missing something?

I have no idea if Clemson is in the MSA or the CSA. I just know it is only 30'ish miles from Greenville and Greenville County has a population of 558,000.
