UND's swimming and diving program may be one of the top in D2, but D1 swimming is a whole different story. Most of our D2 national qualifiers would not qualify for D1 Nationals. In swimming there are A and B cut times--A is automatic, B is provisional. The A cuts for D2 are slower than the B cuts for D1, in some cases they are considerably slower. I love UND football, and I do believe in remaining competitive. I just feel when I hear people speak about moving to D1-AA, that they do not think about our other sports. I am not as knowledgeable about basketball, but when I attended UND the women's program was so strong. What happens in a D1 atmosphere? As was pointed out, I worded my first post poorly. A move to D1-AA for football is a move to D1 for all other sports, and those other sports deserve to be apart of the discussion as much as football.

It has been discussed in the football forums that UND football needs to move to D1-AA. That the program is only regressing and falling further and further behind programs like NDSU. As a former athlete for UND in a sport other than football, I know what this move would do to my program. But I wanted to see what others had to say about a D1-AA move, and how it might affect all the other wonderful programs at UND.

Just because the girls lost at UNO should not discount the last 23 years. Home pool was nice, but many changes were made over the years to try and remove the "advantages" of it. Many, many people worked very hard to those wins, and it was tradition taken very seriously by the Sioux women. UNO came on strong from their very first year in the NCC, and congrats to them this year. By basing their win and UND's loss to a change of pool venue disrespects both teams. I doubt UNO only thinks they won because of home pool. And 23 years comes down to a lot more than home pool. Congrats to all the Sioux women over the years. Good Luck at Nat'ls Sioux!
