Bison Dan

So you would call UND a powerhouse during their transition? Fact is your AD has had contracts for games and he's decided not to.

WOW you really are delusional. The only time the Dome and the Alerus isn't a good venue for football is when it's 50 or more outside. (I'd rather be outside watching) Two things every team needs - good schedule and to win. Everyone likes a winner.

Herd said that if the legislators because of the the law suit don't retire the name? You said as long as they do. I think it's you that has the comprehension problem. Fact is if this holds up the legislators this November I think the letter from the BSC is probably going to be written.

So in your mind SDSU didn't win? It's still a win and SDSU proved they are better.

At least we have the good ole days?

Really? SDSU beats the Thunderbirds and you have SUU ahead of them?

You'd think he would just man up and admit this was all a mistake. Sad.

A perennial favorite to win a NC?? Come on you had some good teams but you were never a perennial favorite to win a NC. You could maybe say that about the Bison in the 80's. (which they did)

Each school has different needs. With Dacotah field having the new turf and with most of all our sports located around the same location the need for a fb indoor practice faclity doesn't make grade. There are only a few times in the spring that it would actually be needed. Better to practice outside where most of their games will be played anyway. When it's all done NDSU will have one of the best setups in FCS all at a central location.

Once again Star is "plugged in" to the minds of both Weber State and SU presidents. Here's what we do know. Al Carlson should keep his mouth shut. If there are any BSC schools that want UND out, this is the kind of talk that will get it done. I don't see how Spirit Lake has any standing in a lawsuit, but if they get a restaining order and delay both SBoHE and the NCAA this could also give the BSC a reason to pull the plug on UND.

Maybe we should boil this down to this: The world's climate is changing - (it has been changing since year 1) Here's the questions: Does the minuscule amount of greenhouse gases that are man made (as a % of all greenhouse gases) causing climate change? (I highly doubt it) Does man have a way to stop climate change? (No way - nothing I've seen by any climate scientist has shown we can) We do need to be good stewards of our planet but let's do what's right and skip the pseudoscience.

I think she got half and then dumped his ass.

Greenhouse Gases: 95% Water Vapor 4% CO2 CH4, N2O, CFC's make up the rest. Of the CO2 total 96% in naturally occuring. So man made CO2 is about .12% of all Greehouse gases. And we're the problem??

Funny - Nothing to do with Gene - check your own backyard.. Last I heard Gene presented UND with a everyother year contract that was turned down.

This is turning out to be a circus. Why so many people going? In any negotiations you don't bring 10 people to the table. If they were serious they'd pick 2 or 3 of there best people and send them to see if there's room to move the ball forward. This is all about trust. This mix of people don't trust each other and that's why I think we have all these clowns going.

If BSC's motive is to get rid of you then they'll sit back and wait for it to become law and at their Oct. meeting dump you. If you have to wait until Nov for the special session then you're screwed. If it's truly the name they're concerned about then they'll wait for the special session, but are you sure the legislature will change their minds? After all Both Kelly and Faison told them the first time this could happen.

Really - you can't guess?

Yeah almost as funny as you planning on going to the playoffs your first year in the BSC?

Only 1 highlight? VB team has made the NCAA tournament 2 times - Softball - 3 times once making to the Super Regional - Soccer once - with many track and field athletes going. 4-3 against FBS still better than what 0-3? This year everyone of our fall sports made the NCAA post season tournament - the only FCS school to do it. So which of your sports will win the BSC and go to the NCAA tournament?

Really that's what you're hanging your hat on?? A few GWC titles against the worst of the worst. Until you actually beat someone in ANY sport and start doing it regularly - your first year in the BSC will be no fun.

Only in your mind.

Doesn't matter all FCS teams are not created equal so the SOS criteria is BS.. But hey if it makes you feel good go with it.

Records are a really poor way to judge strengh of schedule. A NAIA school that's 8-3 is judged better than a FBS team that is 6-5 or a crappy FCS team that's in a easy conference is better than a middle of the road team in a tough conference? So most of you are really happy with the way your fb program is going? A successful DI transition is based on all sports. Your schedule is getting better next year?

Easy to crunch the numbers but very hard to handicap the strengh of schedule...

There's no reason you can't be competitive in SB - Most of the best players come from the West coast and you'll be playing out there most of the time. Baseball is a money pit without a home.
