MidcoSports+ is live using a new platform hopefully that means additional apps are available soon.

No, I saw it last week. So, it was a recent update. Dang, I was hoping for another year. They need some guys to step up this year.

Thank you for the updates. I have always appreciated the rivalry between UND and USD. It is unfortunate that arrangements with the Big Sky Conference did not materialize. A conference anchored by Idaho, Idaho State, Montana, Montana State, USD, and UND would have provided an excellent foundation.

Bad again this morning. I am sure why. I hope they can get things fixed soon.

I like the idea of "a standard". I think UC-Davis will move forward with football in the near future. But, they have some serious facility upgrades to complete first. UC Davis has unveiled "Aggie Ascent," a $265 million, privately-funded athletics master plan to modernize infrastructure ahead of its move to the Mountain West Conference. Phase one prioritizes a $50 million expansion of UC Davis Health Stadium (football), a $14.5 million Woody Wilson Track & Field Complex, and an $18.7 million Golf Training Center. The other football school might already be in place for the MWC and that is Grand Canyon. It would be a project but they have the location, money and staduims in the area. The reality is the Grand Canyon has shown that they will support athletics and the on campus student population is growing. Mid-2,000s - on campus ~ 1,000 Early - 2010s - on campus ~ 15,000 Present - on campus over 25,000 Plus you have the online enrollment of (fall 2024) Total 113,257, UnderGrad: 75,936, PostGrad 37,321 In addition, they have a couple of area facilities that they could use for football. They kind of feel like a UT-SA, Liberty, Unv of South Alabama or Liberty - start up to FBS as fast possible.

I believe the school is in the middle of a Campus Plan update. Send your idea or comment in. Here is link to the planning portal: https://campus.und.edu/facilities-management/master-planning/index.html

No kidding, it looked like Matt Z was mad that he didn't get assigned to the Mountain West Media Day in Los Vegas so he took it out on the Missouri Valley Media day in SF.

So, we have #1 SDSU, #2 Ill St and #6 S. Ill at home and we have #3 YSU and #5 USD on the road. I like that..

Is Don Adams and/or Shepherd family still leading the clown show?

I agree that much of what the current commissioner gets credit for didn't require a great deal of leadership. Adding ASU and St. Thomas wasn't exactly a difficult accomplishment—both schools were actively pursuing NCHC membership. Likewise, changing tournament locations feels more like a response to past shortcomings than a major achievement. That said, how is St. Cloud State replacing its refrigeration system and converting its rink from Olympic-sized ice (200' × 100') to a hybrid 200' × 94' configuration? Why not move to the NHL standard of 200' × 85', like the rest of the conference? If SCSU can't afford to make that transition, it's fair to ask whether the program is financially positioned to keep pace with the NCHC given the rapid changes taking place across NCAA athletics.

Perhaps, there is someone more qualified just looking for a chance to prove themselves.

thanks

I just saw on a social media post players wearing 7-0-1. 0-Rucker, 1-Jerry and but I am not sure about 7. Is that A. Scott?

I like those guys from Langdon.

2026: LIU, StT, @Portland St, @Nebraska 2027: @LIU, Idaho, @Iowa, (TBD) - home game needed 2028: @Min, Morehead St, @Idaho, (TBD) - home game needed. 2029: Idaho St @Iowa St 2030: @Min 2031: @Idaho St. These are the game I know about and I am not sure should they be nervious about needing home games in 2027 and 2028 at this point.
