I'm not sure what is funnier about this sentence--the Summit being on par with the MVC or the MAC being considered a "power league."

The only schools that would have similar academics are Ill St ad Mo St, but those don’t have much STEM programs or research. The MVC is a very weak research and academic conference and that is why Murray St is assumed in.
This will happen and the Dakota schools won’t look back, regardless of the MVC’s snobbery.
This has been a dream of the No Dak and Montana schools going back a couple generations. Too many weak schools in the respective conferences now. But joining together will create something much better. Your recruiting will suffer as a result.

Maybe you should just annex into Canada.

Man, you are delusional. But I respect your commitment and devotion to a hypothetical league. As well as your thinking that the Dakotas/Montana schools are some kind of academic powerhouses.

I realize these are not Stanfords, but their not community college level as much of the MVC is either. Many grad programs are elite and med and law and engineering programs abide. For example, UND leads the nation in aviation technology, including UAV tech and the 3D implementation of it. Harold Hamm, the billion shale oil company owner, was just on campus as our Geology and Geological Engneering school was named in his honor after he gave bucks

they're*
And there is not one "elite" medical or law program in the Summit League. Nor in the MVC. Loyola probably has the best argument, but I would classify them as "solid"--not "elite".
But this is getting too far off topic. The addition of UND and the Montana schools will NOT put the Summit on par, from a basketball perspective, with the MVC. Especially if the MVC adds Murray State.
