How much did NDSU get paid from Gate City to put on those little 2 x 2 patches on the uni's? I can't comprehend that anyone is even going to see those things let alone run out and open an account there.
The first half of the season won't tell us much except at Nebraska. The first half is an incredibly easy schedule. The real test comes down the stretch. We have to make sure the gas tank is still full.
I agree on LIU. We're always looking for the easy win but these guys are just horrible. Chaves needs to at least schedule respectable teams. I'm not sure what to think about Idaho State. They have never been very good but at least they aren't Long Island University and not on probation.
With NDSU giving out 22 more scholarships shouldn't that be forcing them to settle for some lesser quality kids in order to fill the roster? They seem to be getting all quality boys this time around which is most unfortunate.
Is there any appeal, or is the NCAA like your mother told you when you were 6: " Shut up and quit complaining or I'll really give you something to whine about"?
I actually hope there's more to this than we are hearing. The kid contacts US and it sounds like we didn't even offer, we report this as a violation, and the NCAA penalizes US and the kid commits to Lindenwood. What am I missing here? We didn't even want the guy
So does the gobc or gfhockey cover the $25,000 fine? They could do it out of petty cash. I doubt any of the other restrictions are going do much damage.
More detailed explanation from Tom Miller. It was the same thing every other program does IMO. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/college/ncaa-penalizes-und-football-for-tampering-violation
I wasn't implying that NDSU would be the institution that Boise State is, I just meant that there's always the remote possibility they get some football love like Boise got. I don't see that happening either and I hope not but who knows. For now, who cares?
