    kingranch: Thank you for your insights, like "NDSU is already d1 in everything else" ... just like every current Big Sky member is a full Division I member. However, I suspect the BSC commissioner is thinking about Big Sky schools first (like Montana, Montana State, and Idaho, and North Dakota) before say NDSU or SDSU. PS - Those disparaging remarks about Montana State from NDSU fans last year when MSU executed an out clause to take a money game, surely they and the Big Sky have forgotten about them.

    If we're stuck with a moniker that "most people stopped on the street" recognize, we'll be the next Kardashian. And if you're worried about the 18-22 demographic and such innuendo, dare I say "University of Southern California" ... the Trojans.

    No, the University of Idaho that is the highest ranked academic school in the Big Sky (not counting FB affiliate UC-Davis). That Idaho. Counting affiliates it's UC-Davis, Idaho, North Dakota, then the Montanas, then "other".

    The plural of crisis. What the author is saying is that when the next problem comes it won't be just one problem. It will be made up of P5 autonomy, full-cost scholarships, ambitious schools versus trying to survive programs, and who knows what else.

    Maryland and Rutgers aren't football fiscal powers; but they do bring television sets and political influence for grant funding in Washington DC. That matters because of this: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_on_Institutional_Cooperation

    No, it's about aligning the University of North Dakota with like-minded peers, like U of Idaho, U of Montana, and Montana State for collaboration in not just athletics but across many endeavors. It's a model used by the Big Ten and it would serve this group well also.

    Now that you say it I'm pretty sure you're right.

    Question: They had to replace the first field turf installed (in 2012) in Alerus Center because of some issue with it. So 2013 season had new turf just like 2012. Last I heard they were going to store the 2012 turf for installation somewhere else on campus. What became of that surface? http://www.bakkentoday.com/event/article/id/397631/publisher_ID/1/

    Don't forget the agreement Idaho had in joining the BSC. They demanded Montana, Montana State, and North Dakota be in the BSC when they arrived on July 1, 2014 or else they could walk away from the deal at no cost.

    State motto. Highest honor given by the state to a citizen.

    Not at all. It's a simple, black-white situation: Orange barrels or pot holes. Folks have to deal with one or the other.

    "Nothing" is what UND has for a moniker right now, and the only logo we have is easily mistaken for that of "Our Lady of South Bend".

    The leader of the 1st US Volunteer Cavalry, the "Rough Riders", ranched in western North Dakota. The last living member of Roosevelt's "Rough Riders" was a man born in North Dakota named Jesse Langdon. Jesse's father was a veterinarian and treated Roosevelt's cattle on the ranch. So the first and the last Rough Riders were North Dakotans. Tell me again about "nothing".

    The logo is just a Native American related as the moniker was. The logo went in the settlement too. People, it's gone. Mr. Gentry and Mr. Montgomery can explain: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t4S7jafRlJ0 It's time to saddle up and Ride on. (And I think I just gave away my vote.)

    I'm giving the benefit of the doubt.

    You're smart enough to understand what a "net loss" is.
  18. The Sicatoka
    Won game; lost Saul. Net loss.

    How come the SBoHE had a hissy-fit when the Legislature last tried to control something under the SBoHE umbrella but this time they are mysteriously quiet.

    Go NoDaks? <vomit>

    In key Northern Sun action ... Upper Iowa sticks it to Bemidji State.

    I guess I really didn't understand the scale of those boards until I saw the picture in that article with a worker standing in the video board looking tiny. http://www.grandforksherald.com/sites/default/files/styles/16x9_860/public/field/image/072414.N.GFH_.VIDEOS1.jpg

    The alternative is to not have the orange barrels and to still have the pot holes. Your call.

    I do believe Bubba has as much FCS head coaching experience as any FCS head coach in North Dakota. Correct?

    Imagine a weekend tourney where Oregon State hosted South Carolina and USC.
