You just named all stations based in Fargo, the hometown of NDSU. So that's nothing new. Nothing one can do GF doesn't even have their own weekend news casts.
This isnt D2 football competing for North Dakota farm boys anymore. UND has one player from North Dakota. NDSU has two. UND and NDSU rarely compete for the same basketball players.
How far is the distance that matters? Is the Gopher Hockey team concerned because UND is #1 in the country? Minnesota was better than UND last year. Doesn't seem to matter much to the Gophers this year.
