Sadly for the Shockers, zero rumors of WSU joining them.


A non-football Kansas team will NEVER get into the Big 12 with Kansas AND Kansas State

The best hope is they become relevant again and get a Big East invite. Likely they'll end up in the A-10 or new MWC.

That'd probably be my dad and I. Long time-follower of the board. Family of Redbird fans whose attended the tournament for many years. Family member worked on the faculty at Illinois State and now at Creighton since '20. We'll rep CU the rest of the weekend after ISU loses which unfortunately has been quite early lately.

Shox are a lot closer to the abyss than they are to a high major league invitation.

Northern Kentucky and Milwaukee are picked to finish 1-2 in the Horizon. I've mentioned these schools as the two best additions to our conference. Milwaukee is comparable to St. Thomas for travel for Drake/UNI.

I saw the HL Preseason picks and think the Norse will be dancing again. I know they weren't ready to come aboard The Valley last time, but I do believe they'll be extended the next invite. Milwaukee wouldn't be too bad. The Flames and Panthers used to have knock down, drag outs vying with each other for the HL automatic bid. 90 miles separates the campuses, which means a fair amount of opposing fans invade the opponent's arena.

They dont have fans. Well, neither do we at the moment. Would love NKU. NKU, St. Thomas, NDSU, abd SDSU are the perfect next four provided something crazy doesnt happen and Wichita bounces back into our laps or St. Louis

Who is 'we'? I'm not even sure what team you're a fan of.

This is where I put in my suggestion that we all have something in our avatar or signature that indicates our team.
Go Panthers!!

I mean when you can take a fan base full of assholes, an arrogant administration and added expense fly to the middle of nowhere to play them with no chance of recruiting regular students, you HAVE to do it.

I'm also perplexed that the people that bitch about football the most are obsessed with taking the Dakotas.
