Why would a conference want to take a school which could be facing sanctions?

sponsored by Potter of Bismarck, D (UND grad), Glassheim, D Grand Forks (Wesleyan Univ), Wald R Dickinson (UND grad... who said NDSU would regret going DI, and introduced a bill disallowing state money to be spend on DI sports other than UND Hockey), Kelsch D, Fargo (NDSU grad), Mock D, Minot (Home town GF), UND grad Senatory Bakke Grand Forks D (UND Grad) http://www.legis.nd.gov/assembly/61-2009/b...xt/JBSV0100.pdf looks like they got a token R and NDSU grad

Where were they in 03?

Chapman emphasized to legislators the various partnerships NDSU has with businesses and other campuses, including the University of North Dakota.

Changing your tune a bit? I thought Gene Taylor was going to wield his massive influence to prevent UND from joining the Summit League. Do you think Taylor will also initiate new Summit League policy (through his crony Douple) which would prevent NDSU from playing UND even though they are in the same conference

Idaho State bought out of their return game to SDSU as well so this doesn't surprise me. That I can remember- only Weber State of the Big Sky has fulfilled the return game part of the schedule with a Dakota school (Montana bought out of 2-1 with SDSU, ISU bought out of return to SDSU, and Mont St may return game to NDSU but I think it is doubtful)

"Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering"

I heard Taylor also tried to sell WMD to Iran. All of the local media knows about it but they love NDSU and hate UND so they won't report on it.

Douple said he received

Northern State averages more fans playing DII basketball in Aberdeen than St John's does playing Big East basketball in NYC or USC playing Pac-10 ball in LA. There is something to be said for being the only game in town.

UVSU has a solid team and a nice arena and draws OK- they would be a nice travel partner for SUU

The UND men were on my flight from MSP to Bozeman on Monday morning- apparently they flew to MSP- then to Bozeman- then rode a bus for the last 210 miles to Missoula- probably a cost saving measure- but I am sure it made for a pretty long day of travel

NDSU is also playing at Wyo this year.... I wonder if Wyo is gonna play two games in one trip to ND

Completed home/homes (Il St/WIU in 07 were home/homes started before NDSU joined MVFC) NW St SFA Nicholls St MVSU Weber St Home and homes to be completed.. NDSU owes SHSU a game, Georgia Southern owes NDSU a game... and it is still not clear whether Montana St will return their game road guarantee games SIU home guarantee games (FCS only) Peay, CCSU, N'easter

Do Lamar QB's use the limp-wristed throwing style?

12 game schedules for FCS are only allowed in years when due to the way the calendar falls there is an "extra Saturday" between labor day and thanksgiving teams which play at Hawaii are also allowed an extra game

Sac St/UC-Davis is also on Comcast Cali (409 on Dish network) Sac just scored to go up 7-0 early

I am guessing he is meaning playing the TAMU Aggies and UW Badgers instead of TAMUK and UW-Lacrosse

I don't see how ISU can win big. UND by 14+ IMHO

Sagarin only counts games against DI teams- therefore in his eyes UND is "0-0" this year. I don't know how he set your preseason rating (which would be your current rating) as well. Generally after 5 games/weeks the major rankings- sag, massey etc, are based entirely off the current season's results.

Sounds like Ryan Bakken- circa 02

I am guessing the "Free Military" Promotion UND had last week (Military ID's could get you 3-4 free tickets) probably helped attendance,

Kelley, who took over for Charles Kupchella in June, is elevating Greg Weisenstein, provost and vice president of academic affairs, to the No. 2 position, in charge of the campus when the president is away. Phil Harmeson, vice president for general administration, will go back to the College of Business and Public Administration, where he holds tenure as associate professor. Kelley will personally take over his responsibilities over the athletics department and affirmative action program. http://www.grandforksherald.com/articles/i...d40be974b594247
