  • Who got invited?

    Has this been discussed on any other threads yet? Gary tweeted a link to this story yesterday, but I hadn't seen any reaction to it yet... seemed a little late for an April Fool's joke.

    I am guessing we had a similar offer, as did many others, but Dannen didn't go running to the media about it. Indiana State's geography is also a big help with that league...

      That article is an excellent read. Very comprehensive - well researched & good quotes.

        A good article, especially the section on the money factor. For schools like UNI that don't draw maximum attendance every game and are not breaking even, the costs of moving up to FBS exceed the benefits. It's good that Viverito, Dannen and others are keeping an eye on the situation and looking ahead long-term that after all the BCS /FBS conference shake-ups that college football will settle down and UNI can then pick it's direction rather than making rash moves.

          I didn't know there was a cap on conferences so the MVFC can't move up en masse.
