Pretty obvious, but explaining to you is a waste of time.

Crying about flights to Hawaii and Rick Berg? Brother...if you need help dont hesitate to reach out to someone.

Why don't you go back to planning your CFP championship parade?

What are you talking about

[forksandspoons]

FBS is at 105 scholarships. Will NDSU have to add multiple women’s sports?

Stop trolling. No one is crying. You’re on here provoking, Mr. Bison.

My guess is that they plan to drop either wrestling or baseball, and add at least one women's sport (tennis or swimming?).

funny you say that bc it should be something that they should look at .....if they make this move their "trophy case" is permanently closed....closed forever.

women's hockey would at least give them a path to a trophy (true d1a varsity trophy at that)

und still has 2 paths...hockey and football

FCS isn't just a different planet than FBS, it's a different solar system.

This is a much bigger move, where the big $$$$$ P4 programs can buy and sell the G6 programs many times over.

Aside from an occasional upset of a P4 team on the road and a crappy bowl game victory in December, what else is there for FU except bigger and bigger bar tabs?

I agree.  It sounds like a complete waste of money at this time for ndsu.  The football landscape will no doubt keep evolving and when the right opportunity comes along, more likely as a group rather than going it alone, it might make sense to move up at that time.

If are so happy about this, why don't you go down there and cheer them on and "be a part of it"?

But don't think for one minute I'll be joining you.

You probably have them in the CFP as soon as they are eligible. But moving from D2 to FCS is 1000% different than moving from FCS to FBS. This is a much more expensive move requiring millions of dollars annually to compete with FBS budgets. The bills won't stop coming in the mail; they will keep coming and get larger as time goes on.

And there is NO WAY IN HELL I will support playing any FBS money games in the FFD. Let them go to Alabama or Georgia for money games like a good little G5 program. We should NEVER, EVER play them again in FB while we are in different classifications.

Again, support them if you want. But I don't think most people on here will join you.

I am not an NDSU fan. 
 

I am a fan of common sense though. 

[Sioux>Bison]

Who is paying the bills for the MWC? Entrance fee, higher staff pay,……. Is the mountain west going to may them anything for media? NDSU will have to make up for the new millions of dollars now needed.

The FargoDome also now becomes the biggest dump in the MWC
