is this true that rudy hasn't made gf his "home"....
I do know his wife is principal at an elementary school in Minot and his son plays qb for the Magicians, so his wife and kids are still in Minot. No idea what his living arrangements are.

His uncle Rick Burgum put up much of the money for Great Plains Software, enriching him more than Doug, and was a board member of UND's Foundation. His age makes him much more capable to give to UND soon.
Rick's his cousin, and it was Rick's dad Al that invested heavily in Great Plains in the 80's. When Microsoft bought Great Plains Rick was the majority shareholder. Doug and his two siblings were a close second though.

Great come back, MooU gets these home games more so than home and home games, where they try financially screw over the incoming opponent. In the long run, it finally catches up with them and certain teams won't want to play them, causing difficultly in scheduling. They wonder why some schools won't call them back.
How is the opponent getting screwed over? They're getting a boatload of money. The only way they get screwed over is if the deal is for a home/home and NDSU doesn't honor the back end of the deal.

Just what is their road record against OOC FCS teams not including playoffs? It’s probably like 4-0? Since they don’t go on the road except for FBS teams.
LOL. So the FBS wins don't count?

So the NDHSAA has put all their old yearbooks on-line, dating back to 1909. They have all the district, region, and state basketball scores for Classes A, B, and C. It's crazy to see how many schools their used to be in the state. Here's the link. https://ndhsaa.com/about/yearbook

That would explain all the new construction over there recently.
Yes it would.

That land isn't meant for buildings.
LOL. Pretty much every building west of Bolley Drive was once ag research land. NDSU has plenty of space out at Prosper for research. The only land they wouldn't be able to build on is the historic flax wilt plot, plot 30. You have no idea what you're talking about.

"Yea we're gonna go ahead and build a bunch of new buildings on our Ag land while other buildings on campus are falling apart. Sound good?"
That statement has nothing to do with being land-locked.

That and the recently completed study on tuition waivers that are likely going to lead to change on how those are handled.
Yep. Which is probably a good thing. I'm not anti-tuition waiver, but I think there should be some guidelines on how they're handled.

So they're planning to take the already land locked and over crowded NDSU campus and cram damn near double the students into it? That's some strong coffee you've been drinking.
Also, UND was never D3.
Land-locked? There's about 200 acres of agricultural land west of campus. That being said, there's no way NDSU (or UND) is going to grow much beyond 15,000 with the budget forecast the way it is.

Only if you don't include the direct appropriations for ndsu research (ndsu is able to place a large portion of administrative and professor salaries off of its budget).
I just browsed the 2015-2017 appropriations report from the NDUS. Do they transfer some salaries from the Department of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Natural Resources into the extension budget? That's the only way I could see them doing that.
-

Apparently UND needs to start asking for more direct state appropriations since NDSU gets 60% more.
According UNDBIZ, there is not a line item for athletics for appropriated funds. NDSU just chooses to allocate more of that state money to athletics than UND. UND already gets more state dollars than NDSU.

Its NDSU, I don't care what they cut. Its your school what do you think they should cut?
Administrative salaries and travel expenses. Cut back on team meals, find cheaper vendors for certain things. Find avenues to increase revenue. There's lots of ways to do this.

For the first time ever this year.
They going to do that every year?
Yep.

Don't get it? Got to cut something.
What would you suggest Darrell? I'm on pins and needles waiting for your informed and well-educated response.

Looks to be working perfectly. The news tonight stated ndsu was cutting 40% from their athletic budget and 10% from academics.
I never said they had to be 1:1, I pointed out what the numbers were and where they rank in the entire NCAA.
I don't care what a couple surveys say, I'm not sure how you can look at those numbers and not see a huge disparity. There is a reason very few schools use only the third prong of compliance.
And that reason is?

NDSU is in the bottom 10 of the entire NCAA in opportunities for Men vs. Women, having over 2 males for every female participating in athletics (adjusted for unduplicated numbers). On a scholarship basis, for every $1 spent on a women's scholarships, they spend around $1.60 on men's scholarships, again worst ratios in the entire NCAA.
Those numbers are completely irrelevant as far as Title IX is concerned. It was never meant to be a mandate that opportunities had to be a 1:1 men/women ratio. NDSU is not even close to being non-compliant regarding Title IX, no matter how much Hawk fans want them to be.

How's your Title IX compliance? You telling me football, baseball, and wrestling has almost as many scholarships as soccer, softball, and volleyball? Those are the only sports that is not offered to the opposite sex.
NDSU's Title IX compliance is awesome, at least as far as the feds are concerned.

What is the source on this number? If Kolpack's numbers are right, then UND is eliminating all state general appropriation on the athletics side.
I have no reason to doubt you, but I find it odd UND would get 60% of appropriated funds from the state compared to NDSU. When the state appropriates funds, do they mandate specific departments they go to based on a formula? And how much 'wiggle room' does each university's presidents have in regards to allocating appropriated funds?
