I believe so. Wikipedia says the Title IX does not apply to people employed at schools. That makes me wonder what happens if/when the athletes are considered employees?

How is this supposed to work? Thats a lot of travel

I'm not seeing the significance really or why that would bother folks. The Dakota schools got a place to park football. So does the MVC schools. It's FCS football.

I know people dump on some of the lesser programs in the conference but isn't the purpose of the Missouri Valley Football Conference just to be a place for Summit/MVC schools to park their football teams?

Basketball is going to be awful at this level. Every kid who shows any ability at all is going to get offered pretty nice checks from mid/high major teams, and I don't see the Dakota schools raising enough money to keep kids around.

I think at the low major/FCS level, conferences still mostly make sense. There isn't giant TV money incentivizing irrational behavior (USC/UCLA/UW/UO joining B1G).

What leeway do private schools have that public schools do not? The biggest NIL schools in football are just the schools with the biggest fanbases or those with some wealthy/desperate donors as far as I'm aware.

At least Minneapolis is a hub airport that no one should have too much trouble getting to on short notice.

Isn't the "Judy's Debacle" just a typical night in Grand Forks? What was different about this one?

any news on whether that kid who hurt himself at the end of the game is doing? Looked like an awkward fall

My title draught will wait another year. I am mathematically eliminated despite correctly picking the frozen four

Notre Dame fits in very well with them. High end school with a giant athletics department.

They can bury the NCHC with NIL if they want. I don't think they wanna hurt the sport. I think they just wanted their schools to play together. Notre Dame going to the B1G for hockey makes much more sense than UND.

Might the B1G prefer to leave UND behind and take over the sport with bona fide power 5 schools? If they want to take over hockey that is.

Wouldn't UND be a likely beneficiary of NIL since it's maybe the only hockey blueblood school with a large fanbase where hockey is king?

I know you folks are doing a deep dive but hockey is a sport with high variability in results in single games. UND locked horns tonight with another good team so it shouldn't be a surprising that they lost. Pretty even game. It's not like they laid an egg or something.

Learning opportunity for the future. I'm guessing he doesn't make that decision again in the future

Looked to be self inflicted to me but I could be wrong

Notre Dame is usually the team who helps me get that far!

I've been close before. This is my year

Watched at the bar with some colleagues. UND fans. They said UNO has given UND trouble? I presume hockey is like every other sport where matchups matter?

This sounds like cutting off your nose to spite your face - assuming the hypothetical St. Thomas is a good fit for the hockey conference.

JHS probably has about 700-800 students. I believe class sizes are usually under 200. The point remains though

No. He's a much more serious person than Lakes.

Teams lose sometimes. Sometimes bad. Sometimes twice in a row. I'm sure und will be fine
