I would say the student body loves it already!

Honestly I have felt the same way about UND hockey and their success. None of the individual games during the season mean much when all the fans are expecting a playoff run to a championship. Anything less than a national championship is not considered a success. It’s a plague of UND hockey and NDSU football. This comes as interest in UND football is at an all time high for the D1 era.

Good thing they won’t win every game this season……… might bring some interest back!

Chicken is way better and it’s not even close, boneless and bone in! I actually think their sauces are better too because they are not as salty. Still hard to ever beat the Cay though, but no kids allowed there. I would KILL to have one in WY!

Jealous!!!!! I love Wings and Rings

They may favor to watch men’s ice hockey in ND, but hockey is still not as popular as many other sports in the state. Hockey is a niche sport that only rich communities play in ND…… look at all the HS programs in small towns that have folded

Hopefully the district court just rules there was no violation. What a waste of time and money for UND. So what if this case wins against UND? Does that mean we have to add men’s volleyball and women’s football? How about men’s baseball? Where does it end? Athletics is such a waste of money …….:

Does Brock need to be only a gadget player guy or can we just use him as a straight up WR? I think he can be used as both. WR’s are deep, maybe our deep threat can emerge?

Better question is why haven’t we reached out already??? Good punting can put games away and can flip the field for the offense. We need to do better this year at kicking.

I think the o line will be fine after listening to the podcast. K and P could always get better, how do we get an all American punter?

The O-line has some big boys! I can’t wait for them to doze some big holes for Weah!

So does Clemson and Florida State think the rest of the ACC is weighing them down and that they are carrying the conference along? Clemson and Florida State anywhere near the media payouts as Texas and OU?

I must have subconsciously thought Redbacks was a better name than the Redblacks! Either way my auto correct thinks they are both wrong !

Sounds like Tyron Vrede made the final roster on the Ottawa Redbacks in the CFL. Pretty cool to see him get his chance! Also with Winnipeg starting RB out with injury we could see Brady Olivera get a bunch of carries in their season opener.

now you are getting a little too complicated for simple Dan…… if the Bison are going to send us a troll you would think they would send their finest……. Nope we get Dan……..

He has some pretty good offers so far including FBS Northern Illinois but he still decided to come visit UND! Looks like the Bison have shown interest in him in the past.

You keep skipping over the problem of all the other sports teams at NDSU!!!! That’s where the main financial burden is to move all sports to the MWC!!!!! NDSU football could financially make it at the FBS level but can they finance the rest of the athletic department????? It would be very difficult!!!! Way more than 2 million a year that you are complaining about.

I don’t think playing in the MWC for football would be underwhelming at all. It would be a step up from the MVFC with the addition of 0-2 P5 games per year. Maybe an FBS football only league could be created that could leave the rest of the sports in the Summit……????

They haven’t and they can’t, more travel $$$$$

Moving up to FBS isn’t just about football, and I don’t think any smart people are arguing that nDSU football couldn’t move to a G5 conference and not be successful. These conferences are not recruiting schools to join solely on how good their football program is. If so they should kick many of their schools out, but why don’t they????? It’s more than just football. So what are these big $$$$$ media deals that nDSU is going to bring to the MW? So if UND was so financially weakened by moving to the Big Sky how would that be any different than nDSU moving to the Mountain West????? The travel cost for football would be well worth it but what about the rest of the sports…… sorry you have to add more women’s sports and not drop more of them………

NDSU’s campus is a dump, Fargo Dome isn’t far off either…..

The MW would love to add NDSU for football but traveling to Fargo for women’s soccer or men’s cross country is a ton of extra $$$$$ these conference members cannot afford to spend. They will just add the Montanans and be better off without the travel

why are you on this forum again? If UND is so beneath NdSU why do you feel a need to come on here and brag? I think most UND fans would gladly take NDSU’s success and season ticket numbers but you cannot deny that your fan base is falling off and getting less interested for many reasons. The rest of NDSu outside of their football program is a dump!

Montana State is almost double in enrollment and their program isn’t a slouch in football either. Both have stadiums ready for FBS. I bet the two schools move up as a package deal.
