I am sure NDSU would plan on playing The Dakota's so as to have the best of both world's. But, if any of them told NDSU to pound sand, then unfortunately, we would all hear about it for the next 15 years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On this website, read it many times I believe. Not going to go back and look though. Did the UND athletic department have that same idea in place, no idea. You guys did some games with sdsu though along with annual games with ndsu? I don't think NDSU is going anywhere, I hope they get the chance to go though.

GeauxSioux Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 As I see it.... 1. UND is not part of the current MVC expansion conversation, nor should they be. 2. It would not be good for UND, if one or more of the other Dakota schools left the Summit, with UND just joining to cut travel expenses. 3. SDSU is the most attractive of the Dakota schools for potential membership, due to combination of geography, facilities and basketball history for both the men's and women's programs.

SiouxVolley Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 The MVC used to be the Big 8. Then it became the Metro. Then CUSA. Etc etc Now it's only DII moveups 20 years removed from us. Schools like UNI, Mo St, Ill St, and Ind St haven't been DI's for all that long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonadub Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Is the MVC without Creighton and Wichita really a better conference? Will they still get the occasional more than 1 bid to The Dance? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIOUXFAN97 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 what if... the private schools of the mvc split off away from the public football schools (which they don't really really care for that much anyways) and add four more private schools mvc=bradley, drake, evansville, loyola and then add belmont, valpo, denver, and oral roberts or detroit mercy summit=und, ndac,usd, sdsu, niu, isu, isu, siu, wiu, msu all sports plus fb and then omaha and umkc all sports minus fb?

North Dakota Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 The MVC is ripe for a major upheaval, especially if the privates get their way. We could very well see some drastic changes in the next 2-3 years. Would be great to see the MVFC schools form an all sports conference and let the rest of the MVC/Summit fend for themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Yote 53 Posted April 18, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2017 In a couple of years when the MVC is a solid one bid league, the Shocker basketball credits run out, and that bisects with the P5/FBS split I predict there will be some upheaval for the Valley and the Summit. Honestly, the Summit is going to be in the driver seat when that happens because that is where the more powerful football programs in the MVFC reside. It will be schools like UNI having to make a decision to move to that second level of football with us or hanging around the Tier 3 level with Indiana State and the Valley East programs. Who knows, maybe some BSC schools like the Montanas become a player in this saga. The Dakotas need to stick together. There will be a time for us to make our move. We are stronger together than we are apart. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxVolley Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 If the MVC could get Dayton and St Louis, it could get stronger. But those two wannabe-Big East schools won't lower themselves to the MVC. Besides, the A10 gives 75% of each dance victory credits to be the team that won it, which is unusual. Thats a massive incentive to stay and improve the programs. Dayton would lose a ton moving unless for the Big East. Xavier doesn't want Dayton, and the eastern Big East schools want at least one more east coast school, like UCONN or Richmond or Davidson or even BU if it somehow got serious about bball. See the Horizon actually getting stronger in bball, NKU was an upgrade over Loyola, the Slummit taking on and in fb, and the MVC becoming private orientated. Detroit, Belmont, Denver, Valpo and ORU are probably the best the MVC can hope for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzaga has apparently blackballed Seattle, who haven't done anything anyway. Gonzaga looks at the city of Seattle as its territory. St Louis rose and fell based on Majerus. On TV markets alone, St Louis should have gotten in over Creighton, but Majerus's health had been an issue even at Utah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been rumors that Gonzaga is talking with the MWC. After Wichita St left for the AAC, the power conferences seem to be even more concentrated. The WCC doesn't have much beyond the Zags and BYU, and move could assure the Zags a higher level permanently in a league that would seem to have better prospects of at least two bids. Seems that the Big East isn't against St Louis, but can't agree on the 12th team. If they can get UCONN to park it's fb somewhere else, there could be a deal.
