The B1G banned FCS games in the name of stronger schedules. Wrong.

Sorry, the MVC is a 1 bidder also. Wichita has had their moments, but otherwise very 1 bid. 2017 definitely 1 bid.

So we wont continue to hear about the superiority of the BSC for UND, and that the BSC wanted UND and none of the other dakotas? And that its so much better than the Slummit? Which way are you spinning it today? 5 years of trashing the Summit, and that's it, your on board?

No, the bonus is und crawling back to ndsu after years of blowing and going about the coup that was the Big Sky, that only und could get into. Only On Sioux sports, spin away!

You used Schaffer and foresight in the same sentence. I pray to God that guy never touches anything at ndsu. You can have him.

When there are 10 teams, you'll have 7-10,8-9 playin games like the Valley and Horizon do. They won't leave 2 teams completely out.

Anyone can go FBS, go ahead if you like. If you can't pay coaches and do not have resources to compete, you might win 4 games a year. Wheres the value in that?

They're on record in 2010 saying no expansion planned, then usd asked. They're on record in 2017 with Patty saying no plans to expand, then you asked. Sorry, but you could have done the same in 2010, but your admin didn't want to do the work.

It would have happened in 2010, but too much ego by your admin to build the necessary bridges to make it happen like usd did. See, all you have to do make your desires known, and look what happens.

Both of which are ranked higher than und.

Its amazing the lengths und will go to force an 11th hour WAC deal. The WAC deal's a slam dunk now as und is pushing all the right buttons.

Just an example of how reductions make an impact, that I assumed even you could understand.

it would throw healthy restricter plate on any strong engine, booster club, and fundraising. Yes, you might get the best players that want to walk-on.

I think cutting DI hockey scholarships in half would be a good idea, and would have no impact on the sport.

I said Brescani was great compared to the last two bums you guys had. That's all I said. Did I mention Chapman at all?

Compared to Kupjello (zero vision or ideas, out of town and unavailable for contact, no change advocate) and Kelley (pushed out under faculty mutiny and zero rapport with student population; major lack of control and budgeting issues), Brescani is a rock star. Brescani had great vision for the university, dug it out of a major budget problem, grew academic profile and funding; supported DI athletics the nth degree, had a 86% favorable rating with faculty and is loved by the students. Less than impressive, compared to what? Sure, ndsu haters want him gone . . . why do you think that is? A little objectivity would be good when considering what Brescani has done. He is Trump compared to your Obamas when it comes to accomplishing actual work.

Agreed on all points. Und admin is a lot better off not responding to stuff like this. No one at ndsu would think that this shirt is appropriate.

This guy is trying to show is dislike und, with a very misplaced display. I'm pretty sure I can't assume he hates native Americans any more than I can assume people wearing fighting Sioux stuff hate native Americans. No one hates native Americans, they just don't. It may be offensive to NA's, but no one at und or ndsu hates NAs. Kids chanting stuff at football games don't hate NA. Not even close.

Doesn't look like a kid to me, looks like an adult.

That shirt in the Fargodome is offensive imo. In others opinion, wearing fighting Sioux gear is offensive. Who is to say what's offensive, you? Und president? I'm pretty sure offensive is in the eye of the beholder.

The shirt is stupid and makes no sense, the guy is an idiot obviously. Your administration getting upset about is silly though. If they want to start making issues on stuff like this, then they should maybe require fighting sioux stuff to be turned inside out. They should be working to change the hockey culture and get the hockey coaching staff to step up like football has with regard to the nickname. They are obviously more worried about what happens down south than their own issues. As for the ndsu president being responsible? Yes, he is just as responsible for that as your president is for the recent und twitter mess and the football player behavior this week.

Wow, you are delusional on so many levels. Are you joking, are completely out of touch with reality? A standstill? Either school has had the opportunity to move if they wanted to, neither has chosen to do so. All und would need to do is say the word and the Summit would take them. When und went to the BSC, the BSC was taking anyone with a pulse. At that time and today, NDSU would prefer their sports in their time zone and recruiting areas. Could und move to ndsu's conf? Yes, any time. Could ndsu move to und's conf? Yes, they would have been taken when und joined, and they would be taken today. No desire to do so.

When your decision making is always done via committee, it's not a position of strength. People generally want people leading them that make decisions, and do it quickly. It builds trust for that individual, even though you might not agree with every decision.

Sorry, but actions speak, not words. The actions appear to be contrary to the words with regard to decision making and responsibility. A true politician no doubt.

4 million to move to the 85 scholly level with title iX has been the number used by numerous teams and reports over the past 5 years. That number is nothing new.
