Sioux City is a nice wild card to pull from that SDSU doesn't really get.
    That's a fair point, Coyote Fan. I will give USD credit for trying to create a following that goes beyond state borders. In a small state like South Dakota, generating fans from beyond the home turf is important. SDSU has recognized that by holding football, basketball and baseball games in Sioux Falls.
    This space for lease.

      Here's the Argus' first blurb

      http://www.argusleader.com/apps/pbcs...DATES/80710049

      South Dakota is one of six schools to join the NCAA Division I conference. The other five institutions that are joining the Great West Conference are Houston Baptist University (HBU), New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), University of North Dakota (UND), University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA) and Utah Valley University.
