Expand 7090 vs Montana St 6996 vs UNC UND was 4-4 and dropped 3 straight so yeah the air was deflating from everyone very quickly due to the injury at QB. I think UND would've had a good turnout if UND hosted Cal Poly at the end (45-21 thumping of them), and if UND wasn't screwed out of a playoff game they could have had another good turnout if we hosted a regional team (like SDSU). Winning fills the seats....you guys know about that. Quote

SiouxVolley Posted June 8, 2016 Author Posted June 8, 2016 Kolpack is in denial about Wichita St bringing back FBS football. He thinks the Shockers should show up in the Fargodome as a good MVC member. He can't even fathom WSU joining the WAC for FBS, but mentions the MWC should wouldn't take a new program. Wichita St can get anything they want from the MVC, as they bring in most of its money, but they don't want MVFC football, which Kolpack can't wrap his bald head around. Quote

senor_sieve Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 Still waiting on any kind of announcement from the Big Sky/WAC/Idaho regarding FBS status in the near future. Or was it one of those GOBC type announcements that nobody will know about until many years later? Quote

A conference is not going to let a member school play in its own conference? Sure they may be only there for a few years. But can a conference actually do that?

Expand Here's all you need to know: Quote The Missouri Valley Football Conference has a convoluted history that involves three other conferences. The conferences continue to share the "Missouri Valley" name but remain separate administratively. Expand If you want the in-between stuff, Wikipedia has a decent breakdown. Patty V is the senior associate commissioner for the MVC along with being the commissioner of the MVFC and the Pioneer League. The MVFC and Pioneer are the only two football only conferences and don't need a full staff, so they share some overhead expenses with the MVC. Quote

Much, much less than Bison fans want you to think. Expand Other than the associate commissioner from the MVC runs the MVFC and all FB playing MVC schools play in the MVFC. Did you read the article? In a nutshell. Patty clearly stated that the MVFC and the MVC are aligned in not entertaining WSU FB if the Shockers came calling in need of an FCS home before moving on to an AAC or MWC. That may be confusing to some of you, but the reality is that the MVFC schools who play BB in the MVC would have no interest in assisting WSU in their departure from the conference. WSU will need to go Independent if they intend to use FCS. Not a big deal, but since some of you made it a big deal, figured some clarification was in order. Quote
