Bison Dan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 The overall package for all our sports on Midco and Big Sky TV is much better than what KVLY offers. Our package offers local, regional, and national exposure for all the main sports. Bison dan always boxes himself into a corner. There is an an App to pick up Big Sky games on your phone too. The Big Sky conference is great. Glad you're happy with the Internet feed as every school has one that can be watched either on a TV or computer. I see we were on Root this year how about you guys? Isn't Root a BSC channel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see we were on Root this year how about you guys? Isn't Root a BSC channel? Is that why you schedule big sky teams? To have connections to a conference with an actual tv presence. I'll be able to watch UND from Korea this weekend. I am pretty happy with the internet feed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 C'mon ...kimchi and a soju is the Korean equivalent of sauerkraut and a hefeweizen. You'll eat sauerkraut, won't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxVolley Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 You can call them delusional. I do!!!When I said UND would get in the Big Sky years before they did, I was the butt of endless jokes on bisonville, as they knew with certainty that there is no way UND could get in the Sky. After all, NDSU couldn't get in so anybody thinking UND was a lock for the Sky was delusional in their view. The same situation repeats. NDSU backers somehow are certain that UND is the equivalent of Mayville St. It's a mental illness that afflicts the Herd. Good luck in the Big 12!!!

Siouxperfan7 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah, I saw something on TV about that. It was really needed too, that stadium has been a dump compared to what both ND schools have for a long time. Only problem is, you are still in Brookins, SD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homer Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Is Kim Jong-un piping in the game for you to Pyongyang? I've been to the DMZ a few times. That's as close as I'll get to North Korea.

FSSD Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 The rabbits are about to have the best facilities in the Dakotas... Please do tell us more..... how.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FargoBison Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Please do tell us more..... how.. A case could be made that they will have the best football facilities I guess. Their IPF sounds amazing and they are building a new stadium. That said Frost is starting to show its age. I'd still put them behind both NDSU and UND.

FSSD Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 A case could be made that they will have the best football facilities I guess. Their IPF sounds amazing and they are building a new stadium. That said Frost is starting to show its age. I'd still put them behind both NDSU and UND. Football: Practice Facilities: NDSU - bubble UND - Just phase I has 196,500 total square feet facility SDSU - the entire facility will be around 150,000 total square feet facility. Both SDSU and UND will have very nice facilities. NDSU will have very nice facilities also with the BSA upgrade and bubble. Football Stadium: Fargo Dome - very nice Alerus Center - very nice remodeled CAS - very nice - but you are looking at a 25 year bond and ticket prices going from 20/40 to low 30s/60 will they still have the walk up demand. Again, nice stadium, but what is the overall burden on the athletic budgets. USD and SDSU don't have local governments to help like Fargo and Grand Forks. NOTE: Div II - SDSMT could be playing in the nicest football facility in the Dakotas in 4 or 5 years. Rapid City is looking at a 180 million dollars 20,000 seat facility. I see it happening because RC is a tourism town and they don't want to lose concerts to SF. Other: Ralph/Betty BSA Frost - SDSU is wrecking that arena will some of the recent changes. It is going downhill fast. Plus USD is building a new facility. I know everyone is talking about SDSU and its facilities but IMO overall they are still behind both UND and NDSU.

SiouxVolley Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Montana been busy adding video boards, expanding their stadium, adding softball for Title IX concerns, building a new athlete study center, new locker rooms, and have a plan to grow their stadium to 30,000 soon. But I guess they have absolutely no ambition to go FBS, though they've borrowed the playbook from every team that moved to FBS except Idaho. Washington-Grizzly Stadium set a new attendance record during the South Dakota game, packing in 26,303 fans – more than attended the Appalachian State University game the year before. While not on the table at the current time, a future expansion could bring seating capacity to nearly 30,000. “All that’s really left is the south end, and we can still add 1,000 seats on the upper east side,” Maes said. “I don’t know if you can make this stadium much bigger than 30,000. But we’re at a good size now. We found a sweet spot, and we need to stick it out for a while.” http://missoulian.com/news/local/new-video-display-brings-stats-graphics-more-to-washington-grizzly/article_a674031c-45e0-11e4-a8a9-9b29f9b5c71e.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were specifically told that you "know not of which you speak". Updating video boards is preparing for an FBS move? Really now, I guess UND is in the fold with their recent upgrade. If Montana was serious about the FBS, they wouldn't be taking the risky road of moving up with a BSC group that can't afford it, they would be pursuing the MWC. Surprisingly, the great majority of MT fans on egriz seem to be happy with the status quo. They don't want to wind up like Idaho was the clear message.

Its interesting how bisonville follows this thread so religiously. After how I explained how the REA Trust could bond a new stadium, the talk of bisonville was that there was not any existing entity that could finance a stadium bonding issue for them. My posts are the talk of bizon talkgating, because you and they don't want to talk about what UND is planning on public forums. Griz fans are tired of the FBS vs FCS debate. They don't want anyone from outside telling them what already has been decided. Idaho fans hate me too. Only a few Vandal fans get it that the Big Sky move is about footballl. I had to tell them that the Sun Belt move is only temporary, and proved it by showing the Sun Belt Idaho agreement, and even then they blew up at me. People don't like change, especially bizon fans. BTW, the Griz video boards will sell much more advertising, making an FBS move more feasible. But you're such a dumb ass that you already knew that.

FightingSioux87 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I would personally like to see us become a force to be reckoned with in the BSC before any move to the FBS level. How can we justify moving up already without having any success at the FCS level yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxVolley Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 Montana has their new locker rooms and training center. Egriz says they will now have FBS caliber facilities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SykXfLAWY4&feature=youtu.be The $7 million dollar gift for the new champions center in the largest single gift in Griz history.
