USD's Conference Situation

[#1CoyoteFan (Admin)]

Ouch, I don't know about that. St. Cloud State would be a great addition for hockey in D-I, which I think they already are correct?

Just seems like a reach there you know? Granted it would be interested to see what happens to all of the programs with all that extra money. Plus they would be able to get the Minny market being D-I and St. Cloud isn't a bad city I guess.

Jeez, this is a tough one. Also, if they get rid of football, what happens to those pretty nice facilities they have? Can they just transport that stadium down to USD and then covert the Dome to an Arena?

I'll just throw this out there. I have heard, from a decent source, that St. Cloud has at least been discussed for addition to the Summit. If they drop football (which I have heard is a foregone conclusion) they could become a candidate.

You take away the expense of football and distribute some of those scholarships across Summit sports, and St. Cloud might not be a bad addition.

Just talk. But who knows?

That would help solve the confusion of travel partners in the Summit. NDSU and SCSU could pair up. With the proximity of SCSU to the Twin Cities Airport, travel would improve for the visiting teams. It would allow SDSU and USD to be travel partners, each within an hour of the Sioux Falls airport.
