Monterrey Tech is a private institution, with total enrollment exceeding 90,000 at more than 30 campuses throughout Mexico (the LSC representatives made it clear that membership would be only for a single campus, presumably the one in Monterrey). It has the significant advantage of being accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools since the NCAA requirement of accreditation by an American agency became an issue in Simon Fraser’s case.
Think about the Tshirt sales. Lotta green to be made by playing bigger time football in Mexico. Most DII games probably have attendance of 8-20K at best. Monterrey Tech puts about 35K in it's stadium a few times a year for big games. US teams would be big time sellouts, and tickets would not be cheap.
