You arent very good at this.

El Chapo created a criminal empire worth billions of dollars and got broken out of prison on multiple occasions. Seems to me he is pretty intelligent.

Bruhhhh that's boring. geaux_sioux needs to adopt you and teach you better snack.

What the heck is the pharmacy bowl?

Everytime I see UND use black as a main color I roll my eyes. Green and white boys.

Boise State isn't remotely interested in that lmao.

I'm pretty sure he doesnt drink

I'm with you on its not as big of a deal as some of the pearl clutchers are trying to make it out to be. I'm still skeptical on the caffeine thing just thinking how people behave. Let's say I get arrested for drug paraphernalia or however you spell it. The police say they found residue of a common schedule one drug on the object. If all I did was had a bag of weed and (insert smoking device), it's probably best for me to tell folks what it was. If I dont, well that's how rumors start and I'm not exactly making things better by not disclosing what it was. Is it more likely to be marijuana than any other drug? Probably. TL;DR - if it was caffeine, I really wish either Mr. Robbins or NDSU(if they are allowed?) said so. For all I know there is other stuff behind the scenes that complicates disclosure or something. At the end of the day, I'm not going to lose sleep over it. Hopefully he enjoyed his time at North Dakota State, and I have some big doubts that Mama Sue's dream of it hampering NDSU recruiting. Clemson had 3 of 18 guys fail their playoff test. They put together a top ten recruiting class and currently have the #1 class for next year. Seems 17 and 18 year olds aren't too concerned about that sort of thing.

I would venture to say it would be very big news if it was JUST caffeine. Idk if the media knows or not, but the Fargo media would love to start an outrage about how an NDSU player got his career derailed by having too much caffeine in his system. The NCAA is an easy target and a local kid losing his last year of eligibility over caffeine would get the people riled up. I suspect NDSU and the family are content to not talk about it anymore.

"Before winning all these titles recently....ndsu fans looked back on the 80's championships with fondness" isn't the winning rebuttal you thought it was lmaooooo

Odd that UND is a flagship...last I heard they were renting out dorms to the community college Darell lives in the 90's more than old Notre Dame fans live in the olden days which I didnt know was possible.

Who got destroyed?

My opinion is that it's a step up from Taco Bell. It's a little bit more expensive but I'm okay with that.

Grand forks rules. I will defend you all.

That white helmet is a fresh look.

If Augie is able and willing to make the financial investment to be a Summit League institution, I would be fine with them coming. There are a lot of small schools in division 1 that do just fine at the D1 level.

I think it's fair game to crack a joke about a rival team football player failing a drug test.

I dont know what the dude tested positive for. It seems odd for anyone to say "it was roids" or "it was caffeine." Maybe bison73 knows something more though. Lots of stuff are on that list of banned substances. At the end of the day it doesnt really matter what made him fail, he was punished and its done now.

...replace DePaul? What on earth lmaooooooo. Replace the largest Catholic school in the country with Loyola because....why exactly?

Odd. They have had good crowds against plenty of teams. If the people showed up for Cal Poly and Southern Utah, I am not sure why they wouldn't for Arkansas St.

I'm surprised that the Big East is letting them come since they arent a private school

I went to prior to 2010. I went to 08 and 09(the two worst years of D1 football in Fargo) and attendance still was still fine. I dug a little further back and attendance was fine as well, particularly considering how trash their schedules were back then. If you are talking about the late 90's or early 2000's, yeah. Attendance doesnt look very good relative to nowadays. NDSU has been D1 long enough now and has enough seasons under their belt now to have a pretty accurate baseline of expectations of what sort of crowds will show up. If they can get people to show up during a 7-4 season that followed a 3-8 season which followed a 6-5 season, I'd be very interested in seeing what would have to happen in order to keep people from coming. I think they got about 12K season ticket holders as well as 3K+ in the student section so just right there the fake attendance requirement would already be satisfied.

Ummm NDSU averaged over 15K in 2010 after winning 3 games in 2009 and like 6 games in 2008. So yeah.....uhhh I think NDSU is gonna keep getting 15K plus lmaoooo.

Toronto is going nuts for the Raptors because they are generally not very good. That city hasn't won much in my lifetime. If you asked the average Toronto sports fan which team they want to win, I would think the Leafs would be the runaway winner. As for all the talk about newspapers, all you need to know is the New York Times bought the Boston Globe for 1.1 billion in 1993 and sold the Globe for $70 million in 2013. Think about that for a bit.

Wait...you are looking at recent history, by claiming games from anywhere from 1994-2003 are relevant? Lmao wut? And no. I dont remember 1994, I was 2 at the time. So you got me there!
