while i agree with you and the NDSU to the FBS argument is insane...

hasn't the WAC had Louisiana Tech sitting almost a thousand miles from Las Cruces, NM for almost a decade now? ;-)
And the Western WAC doesn't want any repeats of that. If LA Tech got a C-USA invite, everyone would be happy.

Western WAC teams don't want to lose control, and add more far road trips.
Makes sense they don't want to travel but at some point they have to realize that the options out west are slim pickings and they need more teams. Of course I don't ever want to the conference to have to stoop to adding SHSU.

Which is why Lamar is their only option at this point. With the CA budget crisis there is little to no hope/chance of a CA FCS school “moving up” in the next few years. Montana has already denied the WAC along with any FBS fantasy hopefuls the WAC had. There really is nowhere else for them to look aside from the southwest region.

Fullerton’s smack talk about the BSC being more stable than the WAC was not off base at all. With pretty much all of the remaining WAC membership publicly stated they would rather be in another conference (MWC or CUSA); that pretty much said all anyone needed to know about how stable the WAC is.

This might blow your mind lakes but the only way NDSU is going FBS is if SDSU or UND joins us. UNI as a travel partner makes zero sense and I doubt they'd even want to go the WAC in the first place.

Both SDSU and UND are further behind NDSU in being FBS ready, which is already quite a ways to begin with.

Yeah, why would any conference invite just one school from the Dakotas. That would be an idiotic move.

And with 6 more inches I could be a porn star....all things are POSSIBLE....some are more likely than others. Both of our delusions fall into the "less likely" category. The sad thing is that I realize that...you don't. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
