darell1976 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Must be a slow day in Bison sports, all they care to talk about is UND hockey. That's right they are over us, maybe I read their sh*t on UND thread wrong. Quote

That's right they are over us, maybe I read their sh*t on UND thread wrong. well when you only win 1 game in an NCAA Tournament instead of 2 you're bound to feel like you're inferior and try to make yourselves feel better by running down a team that went farther than you.

gfNDfan Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 PLUS! the fact they were acting like the "GOOD GUYS" in the NCAA tournament were the gophers? Appropriate they lost I guess Quote
JohnboyND7 Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 PLUS! the fact they were acting like the "GOOD GUYS" in the NCAA tournament were the gophers? Appropriate they lost I guess I guess you prefer Canada to the US... Quote
jdub27 Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I guess you prefer Canada to the US... Once they put on a UND jersey, it doesn't matter where student-athletes are from, they are part of the UND family. I guess you could be ignorant and turn away some of the best players in the world at the level they play at. Do you have issues with the non-US student-athletes that have played for FU? Quote
darell1976 Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I almost busted a gut laughing at this post on BV...Warning do not drink anything while you read it or you will be cleaning up your monitor. http://www.bisonvill...-Thread/page296 I agree with the relevancy of FCS not being there, but its still an accomplishment "worth bragging about". NDSU has built its program into a household name across the country. I dont need to get into details about it because Im sure youre sick of hearing about gameday, FBS wins and championships. They're just on another level right now where no FCS team has ever been besides maybe App state? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Quote

molden Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 If/when UND gets into the FCS playoffs there will be a lot of excitement. If it turns into a deep playoff run or a national title it will be huge for UND, its players, and the fans. Quote

Common things to find in farmville. Asking a Bison fan about hockey would be like asking Oliver Wendell Douglas what farming is like. Quote
darell1976 Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 So UND played SDSoM in 2012 and Bison fans laughed and ridiculed us for playing a non DI team, then NDSU played Ferris State last year, they made excuses to pump them up (FSU is the best DII team ever), now this year you have their conference mates South Dakota playing NAIA William Penn (no laughing on BV), and this thread on SDSU vs Oshkosh (http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showthread.php?32982-SDSU-v-D3-Oshkosh-B-Gosh) no one is laughing and pointing at them. Shows how immature they get when something bad happens to UND but yet they can look past it when, it happens to them, or its their "rival" and another conference mate. 1 Quote
Bison Dan Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/education/3722469-campus-group-finds-und-value-lags-behind-ndsu Pretty much says it all! 1 Quote
jdub27 Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 I guess giving away that much in tuition waivers and grants really has its advantages. 2 Quote
UNDBIZ Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 I guess giving away that much in tuition waivers and grants really has its advantages. This is true, but UND's bloated administration is quite inefficient as well. Also going against UND is the higher cost of living in Grand Forks. Quote
jdub27 Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 This is true, but UND's bloated administration is quite inefficient as well. Also going against UND is the higher cost of living in Grand Forks. No argument, its a problem across higher ed. Here are the actual numbers used with #1 overall University of Michigan added in for good measure: Avg. Scholarships/Grants: NDSU - $4,754 UND - $4,432 UM - $13,992 Avg. Starting Salary: NDSU - $48,300 UND - $45,700 UM - $54,000 College Tuition: NDSU - $7,353 UND - $7,254 UM - $12,994 Student Living Costs: NDSU - $11,604 UND - $13,800 UM - $12,854 Student Retention Rate: NDSU - 78% UND - 75% UM - 97% Not sure where they got all of their numbers other than the starting salaries, which is collected by voluntary surveys. Actual respondents used to come up with the salary data were 343 for NDSU and 266 for UND with no time frame given. So real scientific and stuff. Also interesting that UM is the best value, probably doesn't hurt that their average scholarships and grants somehow exceed college tuition. 1 Quote
Maddogg1971 Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Ahhhhh winning the West Regional on bissssson turf......er I mean ice! How sweet AND still undefeated in Fargo!!! That was a hotter ticket than any bisssson football game will ever be!! Quote

ScottM Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Also interesting that UM is the best value, probably doesn't hurt that their average scholarships and grants somehow exceed college tuition. Comparing 'su and UND to Michigan is as about as useful as bringing an accordion to a gunfight. Quote
JohnboyND7 Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 The only fun I'll make of und is the thing about using tech school kids to fill up the dorms because the school can't. Other than that, Meh. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Who would ever dream of partnering with a two-year tech school for the benefit of both? This partnership gives students an additional opportunity to use credits they have earned to complete a degree, and establishes a policy and process to allow and encourage NDSU students to transfer their NDSU coursework to NDSCS for the specific purpose of obtaining an associate degree. The Reverse Transfer is especially helpful for students who planned to, but will not be able for some reason, to earn a bachelor’s degree. https://www.ndscs.edu/academics/things-to-know-academics/transfer-agreements/reverse-transfer-initiative/ So NDSU students want an NDSCS associates degree instead?

jdub27 Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Comparing 'su and UND to Michigan is as about as useful as bringing an accordion to a gunfight. No arguments, just threw them in there because they were "ranked" as the top value. And that their average grants/scholarships exceeded their average tuition and I find that amusing.. Quote

I work with a lot of Michigan alums, and some think their alma mater makes Harvard look like the University of Phoenix. Quote
