That's what the Great West is--a haven for (mostly) new dI schools with no real conference yet.

The general consensus is that UND will join the Summit league in a few years.

We are playing them because we joined a "transitional" league to give us some games at a time of year when everyone else is busy with league games. Most schools don't like to schedule very many out of conference games in January and February. Plus being in a league, even a transitional league, gives the teams something to play for other than just pride.

UND is still looking for an autobid conference home for the long term. The Big Sky and the Summit are the 2 that make the most sense, but the Big Sky doesn't have any interest in adding schools at this time or adding schools in the Central time zone. So the Summit is a more likely potential home.
