Is a speculative play that requires some belief on the part of the MVC that they will be a good addition one day or 2. Is a school like SLU or Belmont who doesn't want to come but we will futilely chase anyway leaving us with nothing?
Am stating that the Dakota's simply won't accept, simply because they have bigger plans for football and the MVC won't accommodate that. Mo St and Ill St need to upgrade fb, but the MVC simply won't listen. If firmly stating an opinion is egotistical, some posters here have a strange idea of ego. The Ohio Valley residents equate strong opinions wth ego as in their view its not neighborly, and they are so in error.
By the way, have lived for long stretches in the Ohio Valley region and further south, and doubt many of the OV residents would have the where-with-all, long term planning skills and psychological fortitude to survive Dakota winters.
