Missouri Valley and Summit League in talks?

Will this have any effect on basketball? I don’t know enough of the inside baseball to have a feel for that.

Absolutely none. This is just the Dakotas, mainly NDSU, throwing a temper tantrum because nobody in the FBS wants them and they want to pretend anymore cares about them.

It's like a toddler in the cereal aisle because Mom won't buy them Fruit Loops.

Has anybody really explained why they hate murray st.

Because they don't spend every dime on football the way NDSU and SDSU do and actually fund other sports.

Also because of geography. They hate that they are "too far" east and south.

Which is ****ing hilarious coming from that same group fo 4 schools that have spent 18 years railing on about how "bus league teams not wanting to spend money on travel should drop D3" and all the other big tough man talk. The second a school is added that isn't directly in their footprint they start screaming about that as well.

Again, literally doesn't make sense tho. Wow, another easy W to their schedule. Why would they care about that? As if they want other great teams in the league anyway, that doesn't help you reach the playoffs in FCS.

Also, them complaining about travel in any respect is laughable considering their campus is located in Siberia and nowhere near ANYONE. Laughable.

Absolutely none of it makes sense from any angle.

It's completely non-sensical. I am totally with you.

They think that because they destroyed the FCS model singlehandedly that everyone else should too. They want 'interesting' regular season games. Well, don't double everybody else's spending and you'll probably get them.
