Should feel blessed to have 'SU show interest. Means you are an exceptional athlete. Worked out fine for Rock, won a title and got a standing ovation when he led a Bison opponent into the Fargodome.

Haha. Thats funny. You are trying to make a case that this is a good thing. Not that it is a horrible thing...but certainly not a good thing.

Really? You are really going to insinuate that NDSU and UND are really any different than each other as far as academic quality? Both are good places to get an education.

I like the sound of that In all seriousness, I doubt the state of ND can support two FBS teams as far as fan support goes. If NDSU makes the jump(unlikely), it would be very interesting to see the effects it has on both NDSU and UND.

Lol so you are one of those people I hit with snowballs during the winter months.

NDSU is a force in track in the area. UND is not. Still important to support the school of your choice and hope for improvements, agree with that of course.

I'd assume we'd have a monopoly on that.

Didn't see the Alerus. Invalid.

someone is still mad about the no MVFC/Summit combo invite. We'll see what happens with Detroit.

yeah....wouldn't that be an interesting final four matchup

I don't understand a lot of hockey penalties from clean play. That one I noticed. Bummer for Hermantown.

zero.

Your point being? UND's baseball team will never compete for the baseball championship, do they need another division one for baseball now?

Small schools can win in basketball. Butler made back-to-back title appearances. Gonzaga is #1. Creighton has been highly rated. Sometimes all it takes is one guy and your team is a contender.

Amen brother. The more tax cuts, the merrier. You know who knows how to spend money and allocate resources the best? The person who worked for the money in the first place.

I think NDSU and SDSU are in the top ten. I don't think NDSU or SDSU will get in but still, name ten teams that the MVC would be more interested in realistically adding.

Lol.

How many fans do you reckon UND would bring to a game in Fargo, Brookings, and Vermillion respectively?

a fellow base brat eh?

I could see Rutgers and Northwestern at some point. No logic behind that thought however.

Perhaps temporary strain on the budget for long-term gains.

Sure does. Difference is NDSU proved before those poor seasons that NDSU was capable of competing at the FCS level. That isn't to say UND can't. But UND simple didn't have a good transition(this has been discussed many times. this thread is pointless.).

How do you know that? UND could remain a 5-6 or 6-5 type team for the rest of eternity.

everything also indicated that to be a letdown game.

Honestly, I think this year may have been the biggest gap. This defense...
