NDSU picks as their interim president Rick Berg: alumnus, former state and US House rep; business and budgets background.
Feels a little like when former Gov Schafer was UND's interim. His job was to fix budgets and streamline internal processes.
I've heard this tale for over a decade.
Closest it's come is when UND D Ethan Frisch would catch a daily mass on the east side and chat with his old priest from Moorhead (Msgr. Mike Foltz).
You'd better bring at least "a share's worth" to the conference media value.
If you don't I can't see a conference adding a member, re-doing the splits, and legacy members taking a smaller share.
I get to see a lot of the Augie Doggies* (per Midco) and they still are the team that won in Grand Forks. They're a tough out.
*they missed on the name; Vikings?; pffffft; Doggies!
