This "belief" that the Horizon League is on a better path than the Valley is just sour grapes and is based on nothing. I really am surprised to hear that Belmont fans don't want in, I thought that was just the position of the administration.

It's not too lively of a place, but the few fans that did comment seem happy with the Horizon. Two the three said that they want to stay in the Horizon rather than go MVC, while one said he doesn't think NKU would go for it because of their exit fee. I'm not sure how much that would be.

I'm planning on starting a similar thread on the NDSU and SDSU sites to see what their thoughts are. I just have to get my new accounts approved first. I'll probably post one on the Oral Roberts site eventually as well. We all know how Murray State fans feel about it (they want in) and how Belmont and St Louis fans feel (they don't want in).
