You and others have the patience of a bull in a China closet.  Waiting for anything just isn't possible with your small bizon brain.  According to you, we should have been a Slummit member by now.

Show a post where I have stated that. Dude you really need to stop the blatant lying

 

What am I supposed to be patient over???? YOU are the one who made all of the predictions and timelines that didnt come true.

 

Nice attempt at deflection again. But lying to do it? Shame shame.

Is this an example of Bizun math?

Maybe a nine game WAC schedule by 2020 is real.  Nine conference games works when in an FBS league with 10 or more teams, as their are still 3 OOC games.  It wouldn't work at the FCS level.

Why were Kennedy and Zink at Stanford today conferring with Purpur?  Getting PR suggestions for a big announcement?

Fully expect the WAC to have more than 10, maybe 12 teams, when they start a transition in 2020.

You and your cohorts have been stating the travel costs of the Sky were bankrupting us for years.  Or is that false too in your small bizon brain?

He doesn't know the difference between a numerator and denominator.  That is beyond the capacity of a former bison player.

There you go again. Please show where Ive said this. Youre 0 for a couple of thousand so you may as well keep your streak alive. Since you can rebutt my last post you.  Deflect-move the goal post---deflect--move the goal post. LOL

There are a lot of disbelievers that a Jubilee year will bring out improbable.  How about this?.

Cleveland Indians VS Chicago Cubs for World Series.  One of them is guaranteed to win.

 

The Jubilee Year was over earlier this month, but this baseball season was part of the Jubilee.

Awesome, does that mean my Vikings are going to win the Super Bowl??

The longest title drought is owned by the Arizona Cardinals, which were in Chicago the last time they won.

In the AFC, believe it is the Tennessee Titans when they were the Houston Oilers and won the first AFL season.

There's a number of teams that haven't won a Super Bowl, and the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles have a worse futility streak than the Vikings even going back to previous NFL merger days.

Yup. Over Buffalo. The Futility Bowl.

At the WAC media day for men's basketball, NMSU Coach Weir said football schools will be coming in and the WAC will be a football conference again.  Said something like WAC Commish Hurd will likely hate this and he's not allowed to talk about that and then he shut up.

At the 9:30 mark:

The impending merger of TAMU-Corpus Christi with TAMU-Kingsville will create another FBS wanna be school.  They don't want to be left behind by UTRGV when it get football.

As the article says, the merger needs to happen but right now it won't as the different schools don't have trust with the other side.  Never did I say a combined school was vital to a new WAC.

A very interested case study of a team that moved to FBS from the Gateway (MVFC) Conference is Western Kentucky.

They have a good football team now, and average 18k a game, currently 8-3.  Last year, they were 12-2.  In the year that they won the FCS title, their largest crowd was 11k, their last regular season game was 3k, and their only playoff game was 3k. Of course, they doubled the size of their football stadium since moving to FBS, but the fan support gained has been remarkable.

The only way they could get in a better basketball conference, CUSA, was if they went FBS.

They have currently the #7 basketball recruiting class in the nation, and almost all their other teams are either rated or respected, like volleyball, W bball, baseball, soccer etc.  They seem to be following in the footsteps of Louisville, which has also had a remarkable transformation from just a purely basketball school, and both campuses seem to have prospered.

Coastal Carolina is also a soon to be FBS school that seems to do everything right athletically.  They have won the first two Sun Belt  team championships this fall, M/W soccer and might win a third today in volleyball.  None of their sports are weAK sauce.  This year they were national champs in baseball, have strong softball and spring sports.  Their basketball has made a few dance appearances.  And they are shooting bigger with FBS and an enlarged stadium, even though their football has never had an attendance over 10k.  Moreover, they started women's lax and beach volleyball, which are both growing in popularity.

Coastal Carolina and Western Kentucky are two schools where an FBS move has really paid off with enrollment growth and athletic performance.  

Why not UND?

That's unfortunately all too much of the attitude on here.  If we follow ndac that means dropping all hockeys, as their fans detest it.

We can trail blaze our own path.

It's settled then, UND should go FBS. 

It's that easy right? You just say you want to be FBS and it happens?

One of your most stupid comments as of late. That takes some doing I might add.
