Lol that was pretty good. Berry is definitely the Italian Stallion.

You do know Entzion is a UND alumnus right? Probably not a good idea bringing that clown up here.

Reduced traveling budgets for all of their other teams. Probably a little easier scheduling as well. Hell the BSC would probably waive the exit fee just for those items alone.

Fine let me be the first. UND will be moving to the Summit. They will remain a FB affiliate member of the BSC. Badda bing badda boom!

I'm not counting any wins until they happen. Been burned too many times. I'm cautiously optimistic though!

I wish they would have kept the interlocking ND logo on the helmets. That's been tradition for a long time. One of the few we still had left. They could stick the new logo on enough other stuff anyway.

FBS as an Indy is suicide. Your theories have more holes in them then swiss cheese.

If the BSC is ever going to be seeded higher then 15-16 they need to start winning some of those games. It's common sense..... But when we have people OK with mediocrity I suppose it's all we can hope for....

Just to shed some light on the NDSU situation I talked to a neighbor who's an NDSU booster and he said the decision had more to do with the SHAC not being done yet and having to deal with hosting games at Scheels arena. They were probably going to lose money on a CIT or CBI game so didn't make sense. Also have some injuries from what I hear. I think most programs would want to keep playing as long as possible. Can't hurt IMO. Weber with the 15 seed against Xavier. That'll be ugly for the BSC champs. BSC is going to have to get better scheduling and wins if they are going to get higher seeds. Also looks like SDSU got a tough draw with Maryland. Don't see an upset happening there.

When are those going to come to fruition? Your theory says we have 3 years to be ready. It's getting to be kind of a tight time frame to become reality. I'd also like to know where the money is going to come from for your big plans.

Hard to get the ball to WR when your on your ass or running for your life. He also had no running game to set up play action. Look at the difference in Hackenberg's career at Penn State.

So what's happening at UND? I haven't heard anything about a new stadium or other prep for FBS. Did I miss that somewhere?

I still think Joe could have been a great QB. He didn't have a whole lot of talent around him and the coaches sucked. Then the injuries. It is what it is and I hope he has a great senior season at TE.

Even if that far fetched idea becomes reality it's years away. They need to do something NOW.

I certainly hope Grady returns. Seems like a waste of talent and potential to walk away. He could do so much more for his family by coming back.

Raise FB tickets $6 and they are there. We will probably do the same with hockey tickets and it'll be a done deal. COA isn't going to break the bank.

I would think they would save way more in travel expenses in the BSC then the Sunbelt. How many fans do they draw now?

Calm down where did I say any of that? Good grief. I simply don't know how all of the academic requirements come into play or how Bubba is going to handle it.

I would agree.

What i was getting at is if they are only offering 77 then they would only have to reduce 14 rather then 22 to get to the FCS level. I'm sure that wouldn't take "several years" to accomplish.

Did he do this? Link please?

not sure what happened there but my comment got stuck in the quote.

Idaho isn't offering 85 scholarships now are they?
