Joining the Mountain West would run an $8MM - $9MM annual deficit - can we overcome that?

Hypothetically, what if NDSU finishes at or near the top of the conference? Does that change the right opinions. Same if they finish at or near the bottom?

The only thing that would change opinions is if NDSU wins atleast one game in the CFP. Winning the conference and being one and done won’t be an improvement over winning FCS championships.

I am not a politician and don’t lie on egriz. And you can’t point out a single lie. Now you? You lie, are a fraud, and are dishonest. Are you warring your hoops jersey now?

34% in Congress are lawyers.

You have no idea who I am...and when you lied about me posting something about your friend Buddy I challenged you to prove it. When you got caught in that lie you predictably lied about the lie and claimed I must have deleted the post. I have never deleted a post and the moderators of this site who you claim are your friends can easily check and see that I'm telling the truth.
You originally claimed that you NEVER lie...now you are saying you don't lie on egriz.
Neither statement is true, Jack.

How so? I think it’s pretty clear both Montana teams would compete with and beat a majority of the current MWC teams as rosters are currently constructed.

Besides football, soccer, MBB and WBB already play MWC and PAC teams and beat them.

Give NDSU 3 years to recruit the size, speed and depth that's required and they will be within the top 3 teams in the conference in football.

It won’t take them 3 years. They are good and the MW isn’t very strong.

The thing is being the top of the MWC won’t be impressive winning a game in the CFP will be. Winning a bad league and a one and done blown out postseason in the FBS isn’t as good as winning the FCS.

They're already top 3 in the con.

Disagree, will be fun to watch. I think UNLV, Hawaii and Wyoming are better.

Ill give you UNLV and i wouldve agreed with New Mexico maybe. Pump the brakes on Hawaii, they had one good year, granted the MWC wont be nearly as competitive. Its a definite no on Wyoming though. Agreed though, gonna be fun to watch NDSU do what we've been hoping to do for years.

NDSU is already in the top 3/4 of the MWC in year 1. Preseason rankings have it at UNLV/New Mexico, Hawaii, and NDSU.

Y’all are too low on New Mexico. New Mexico is #1, UNLV #2, NDSU #3 Hawaii is overrated.
