They traded away a bunch of picks that could have improved the team to draft his replacement who will get every benefit of the doubt. Can't imagine why he'd be upset to risk his health with zero guarantees. He's in line to get paid nicely for it but for a very short term. Poor thing. Maybe he should just take his ball and go home.

When and or if he finishes this contract he will have made 100 million bucks in his career and has produced zip. Pooor baby, Quote

He'd actually be doing them a favor. The NFL is a business. He won't do himself any favors playing for a team with an average oline and zero running game. Quote

Sioux94 Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 I get him wanting a trade, but if they decide not too........he signed a contract and is getting paid very well with that contract......time to strap it up and do your job. I get him positioning and being a whiny baby now to see if he can get out of it and get traded, but if they don't do it and he still sits and complains or sits out....then I think he is partially afraid of competing. I flew out to Philly yesterday for work this week.....so I've asked a few people about Wentz....to see if they are giving him a thumbs up or thumbs down, from just the couple I've heard from they seem ok with him. There weren't any haters from just the couple I talked too....I remember how bad McNabb got boo'd.....at least people didn't boo him when drafted, but I know there are some fans that weren't happy giving up all of those picks.

Yes the NFL is a business. So he need to honor his contract. Quote

Two divisions or two separate conferences for football? Will changing landscape actually cause UND to shift to a different conference (MVFC with NDSU, SDSU, USD)?

Cratter Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 One thing is for certain the Big Sky has too many teams for both basketball and football! 2 Quote

Better than not having enough teams I suppose.... Should only improve the strength of the conference. Pick out the top schools and form an upper and lower division, IMO. Even if the league is split up according to geography, that yet favors UND; group would likely include UND, Montana State, Montana, Idaho, Idaho State, Northern Colorado, and possibly Eastern Washington/Portland State.

If for nothing else, all interesting questions for general discussion. I know 14 teams is a joke of a conference when the conference champions are nothing more than 'paper champions'. Split them 7 and 7. Your 6 games count towards your seed in your respective half. Last week of the season 1 plays 1 for the title. 2 plays 2, and so on. I didn't need a 1,500 page report to come up with that. That guarantees 7 conference games and fill the rest of schedule with 3 - 4 'non conference', which could be Big Sky teams. 1 Quote

What if you had an undefeated team from each side, how sweet would that be?? I didn't say it would be perfect each year, but at least it determines a champion by playing a game called the "Big Sky Championship Game!!" It's really not that different from the power 5 FBS conference championship games except everyone plays in the conference, not just the top 2. If this isn't considered.....why the hell not!! Quote
zonadub Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 The biggest hurdle with an east/west or north/south split feels like the traditionally powerful teams (Montana, Montana State, Eastern Washington, and now Idaho and hopefully UND) would mostly be together, while the teams that are more often the not-so-powerful (for example Weber, Sac State, UC Davis, and maybe Idaho State) would be in the other half. If you look at it that way, a Big Sky/WAC reorg makes more sense. Quote
