Can you tell me where president of board of higher ed is from

Does NDSU have 10+ Million dollars in their pocket they aren’t telling anyone about? 
 

 

Not in perpetuity, but political officials that will allow NDSU into the state of North Dakota’s pockets do …

It looks like Chaves is awol and so is Fenton 

‘are these 2 inept?

I do have faith in Armacost 

I know Fenton has no say in football and hopefully no say in hockey anytime soon

are any current mwc schools leaving for other conferences?  I’m surprised Boise state would vote yes

Why would

Fenton kick them out. The Summit doesn’t have football. Besides, that would bring the Summit down to 7 schools, so to be 6 when St. Thomas leaves.

I thought it was Denver leaving.

Correct. This is political in origin; hence, Rick Berg taking over as NDSU interim president is no coincidence here in terms of timing. 

UND and their political alliances (and strategic panel in terms of hockey vs everything else) need to now react accordingly.

All the top schools left for the pac-12. Mountain West is 4th in the G6 at best. The poaching funds (if the get them) will only last a couple years. Moving to that level of football is like flushing money down a toilet.

Fargo is a front runner town, we'll see how excited the fan base is to head to the Idaho Bowl in late December.

Tulane and JMU have shown that the gulf between P4 and the rest is wide and only getting wider. Just dont see what is compelling about going from FCS to FBS at this point.
