Good academics, would give both USD and SDSU some competition, especially in basketball. The Sioux Falls television market would be solidified as well. Quote

NewUndFan Posted Thursday at 09:46 PM Posted Thursday at 09:46 PM I dont see any of the Dakota schools wanting another Dakota school in the summit. Just going to water down the league with competing schools for limited athletes. We need to expand our footprint out the Dakota's for our next schools in my opinion. The Texas schools would be great, but I think they are moving to the Southland? 1 Quote

SUU was in the Summit earlier, they brought nothing to the league and I doubt much is going to change when they come back. The WAC had some great members but we got the cast offs that nobody wanted. Step back from the solid work the league had been doing with expansion. 2 Quote

Maybe slightly but they bring nothing to the league other then cannibalize USD and SDSU in the market they already share. You don't make moves that hurt your league, you make moves that grow your league. Augie doesn't grow the Summit League in anyway. 1 1 Quote

It would help mitigate the ridiculous advantage USD and SDSU have in the Summit League basketball tournament every year. Both of our fan bases complain about that. Quote

Both of our fan bases complain about that. How would it mitigate it? So now we would USD, SDSU, and Augie fans filling the arena. Augie wouldnt even have to travel at all. They wouldnt just take recruits from the South Dakota schools they would take from the North Dakota schools as well and just water down the league down. I would never be for adding any more Dakota schools to the Summit. 2 Quote

Dak 4 plus those 2 equals the call to Patty saying so long lady....Fbs or otherwise you got summit football plus they have other sports the summit needs/wants like baseball and I think soccer? Maybe even get niu or Drake to break up with Patty too... Who knows Natural travel partner Then Fenton starts summit hockey.... Get a cohesive streaming TV package for all sports Heck. those Texas schools might be left ownership of the name WAC and the summit name could die off ( finally) And it would be the return of the WAC!!!

I'm sure you agree we need to add a few teams. I'd rather have better schools myself but I dont think we have alot of options. The two Utah schools would be travel partners. Maybe add northern Colorado? Quote

There is no need to add schools at this point in time. If a school leaves then try to add schools (Augie is the perfect emergency school). But, you just added two mouths to feed and they literally add nothing. All they are a net negative for the conference. There is no finacial gain with those two schools. At least Augie would add to the bottom line of the conference. They would help sell tickets for the conference championships and at regional games for several schools. Why did the conference let W. Ill go if they are you simply going to add the Utah schools. The last 6 moves by the conference: Omaha, Denver, ORU, KC, UND, St. Thomas - plus they drop WIU. All good moves. Then you add these two schools? What, Chicago St isn't available? There is no need to act. The Utah schools are a much better fit in the Big Sky. I noticed that they weren't dumb enough to take SUU back. I guess we can looki forward the SUU starting fights in the bathrooms again at conference tournament. 1 1 1 Quote
NewUndFan Posted Friday at 01:31 AM Posted Friday at 01:31 AM Adding Augie would be the dumbest thing possible. Right now their men's basketball team is 12th in the northern sun and you'd prefer them over a division one school ? Western left on their own to save money with a closer conference not kicked out. The south Dakota schools will never let Augie in. They wanted in when they went with st. Thomas. And yes we do need more then 9 teams Quote

I think they add next to nothing. Let's be honest, the Summit League isn't going to attract anything more than schools with no place else to go. Sad, but true. Quote
