OUR OPINION : UND's new numbers

UND becomes iTunes U

There are some other notable exceptions regarding enrollment numbers Auburn is larger than Alabama Virginia Tech is larger than Virginia NC State is larger than UNC Miss State is larger than Ole Miss AZ State is larger than Arizona Oklahoma State is larger than Oklahoma Utah Valley State is larger than both Utah and Utah State and a little closer to home.... Montana State is larger than Montana. South Dakota State is larger than South Dakota More important than not being the largest school in the state is the question of why UND is not growing. Is it a lack of marketing? Both schools were growing at approximately the same rate up until 2004, which was when NDSU moved to Division I. Is it more prestigious from a student's point of view to attend a Division I school? If that is the case, then UND's course should be corrected next year. UND changed admissions standards a couple of years ago, which has had an effect, but the standards now are nearly the same as NDSU's. Just curious as to what others think the reason for the decline in enrollment is. I believe that both schools have a goal to level out at 15,000 students, so eventually they will be nearly equal in terms of enrollment regardless, but UND needs to start heading that direction.

UND calls NCAA motion frivolous

Game #3 game notes.

I was sitting in a meeting in a Federal Courthouse and wasn't allowed to bring my cell phone into the building. My wife held her breath until she heard back from me after the meeting. My brother was in a hotel near the Pentagon and couldn't get out of DC for several days. God bless the USA.

If you want a less biased view of SUU. Ask someone who has already played them this year what they think. Would the UND Sioux beat the Griz?

Desperation is exactly how I read the article. They are throwing anything that they think could stick.

The Herald is involved in this discussion, how?

I'm trying to figure out why there are Bison fans on SiouxSports. Are they bored? Is this a down year for Bison football and for them to feel better about themselves they come here to smack?

Sioux ranked second, third in pair of national football polls

For selfish reasons I would like to see them play Univ of Southern Miss in Hattiesburg or Tulane at the Superdome. I think you would get a good UND crowd down to New Orleans if they were to play Tulane.

Isn't it somewhat contradictory to say that UND couldn't beat an FCS team late in the year due to the disparity in scholarships and then cite the Bison/Gopher game as an example where a team with a lower number of scholarships almost won late in the year?

I understand their concerns, but universities are run more like a business these days. Fundraising was one of the main topics in FGCU's search as well.

I hope most opposing coaches will feel that way through the year.

What is a full DI team? I thought that either a team is DI or they aren't. You haven't been reading your NDSU handbook.

I don't know whether I would use this as a measuring stick. UND played SUU in Utah early in the season, while NDSU plays them at home after a few games to gel. Last year I did use our game against UNI as a measuring stick, because SDSU played UNI a week after we did in Cedar Falls. This just isn't the same. NDSU will beat them handily, though.

Great win Sioux !!!!!!! Let's keep it going next week for Potato Bowl. Looks as though UND passed the first Great West test.
