    Oh, I'm happy to admit I was bitter about the Sioux Falls conference tournament, and everyone knows that. That's water under the bridge. I thought it was a slap in the face to the fans who did not live in that part of the conference. Just my opinion. The admission of schools like Minot State was too laughable for me to become bitter. By the way, how is that 16 team strategy working out? It was boring even when there were 16 teams.

    When you said I was bitter about Augustana leaving the conference, that's simply not true. I'm not bitter about this latest development at all. I welcome it.
    There are too many threads going on here :)
    If I said you were bitter about AU leaving, then I misspoke and didn't make myself clear. I was trying to say you are bitter about the NSIC in general. I could tell you were happy about AU leaving.

    Regarding the rest, I have already stated my opinion numerous times. I think the NSIC moved too far west. Its going to look even more ridiculous when SCSU and MSU leave. It added too many schools that did not fit the profile of the core members. Sioux Falls was always going to be the core of the conference. It doesn't work as well without Augie, to say the least. And yes, the NSIC did too much to appeal to the Sioux Falls market in basketball regarding the conference tournament, and alienated fans that do not live in the Mecca of the NSIC.

    Agreed. I'm sure there will be a few compromises to let them stay. The member institutions want them out after this year ... you'll be seeing that in the papers soon.
