They were getting paid to steal from Best Buy. They were paid to sit and sign signatures. Both are pretty nice lucrative careers. Just waiting for the next scandal to break. Talk about sour grapes. I know UND athletes have never been in trouble with the law. Oh wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSioux Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Here we go again it's been less than 24 hours and some SU fans have no place better be than a UND fan site. Hey it's a UND fan site that means things are going to be said about other teams - especially ones we dislike. Those comments are typical for what fans would say when they are tweaking other teams. As has been said dozens of times what SU has done is historic in the second highest tier of college football. If that was my school the last place I would be the day after we won a national championship is on another school's fan site hoovering to reply to comments. I do have to say the team should also be commended for staying out of alley fights and away from shopping malls with their junk exposed (see what I did there.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I don't agree with the entire conversation and don't think anything "funny" goes on in Fargo. How many NDSU players haven't sat out when breaking team rules, or the law? It's a program that's places winning above anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shep Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I don't like their fans coming here either, but c'mon guys... They are head and shoulders above any other team in the Division. 5 in a row is evidence of that and there's no real strong reason to think it won't continue next year. I wrote that their streak ends when UND beats them in the playoffs. It sure seems to me that Bubba ball is the only way to beat them and if we don't no one else will. That said, tip our hats, don't accuse them of wrong doing as it sounds like sour grapes, and let's talk about UND football not their football. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSioux Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 As they say in the Geico commercials "when you are a fan posting on your own school's fan site bashing rivals is is what you do." Every comments doesn't need to be rebutted by visiting trolls. Most of us understand it's just chatter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sick and tired of "tipping my hat" to other teams and other programs. It is all we ever do around here anymore and I am sick and tired of it. Our last national title in any sport was the 2001 Division II football title on December 8th, 2001 in Florence, AL. We used to stand for excellence, now we are just happy to have programs that are called Division I. It is high time we change that. First, hockey this April. Next, football either in 2016 or 2017. And Bison fans have absolutely no right to come on another team's message board and run their mouths. Trolling will get the same response from me, I don't care if they don't lose a single game for the next 10 years. You will be told to shut up, get lost and go back to Bisonville. I don't go onto other team's discussion forums and the Bison trolls on here should think about following the same rule for themselves. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't really aiming that comment at you, but at the growing portion of our fan base who seem just fine and dandy with the mediocre performances of several of our programs since we moved up. About 15 years ago, that wasn't as much the case. The fact of the matter is, NDSU is getting all kinds of positive national attention for their FB team and their MBB team and that is a great recruiting tool for the entire campus, both athletic and non-athletic programs. Their national profile is getting big enough to render us almost invisible outside of college hockey circles (we are becoming "that other school in North Dakota"). And that is unacceptable for the Flagship campus of the North Dakota University System (and Bison rubes, I know you hate hearing that, but that is what we are). The next President of this school needs to understand how valuable athletics can be to marketing all of our programs (academics and research included) or we will continue to become even more irrelevant outside of college hockey circles.

The more time they have to prepare and the bigger the game it seems like either 1) they have things down to a science on players peaking for the game or 2) they are doing something different with their players than the rest of college football, and I am not necessarily saying it's illegal, but the thought has crossed my mind. Another aspect is schematics.......doesn't seem earth shattering but they are very sound on O and especially D. 3 hours ago, nd1sufan said: This is pathetic. Accusing NDSU of cheating because you can't compete with them. If developing players and preparing them well is cheating maybe they are. You left a bunch out, point 1- the players are prepared for big games, they seem bigger, faster, stronger. And I pointed out NDSU is ahead of the game, and I said it is not necessarily illegal. I said it crossed my mind as an objective view of any team doing something unprecedented. Thanks for your interest........leave your insecurities at Bisonville.

To add insult to injury ESPN is going to have Gameday comeback to Fargo next season. More publicity to the state's most recognizable sports team (except hockey). I know that statement is going to sting and some will not think its true but when you talk sports except hockey what name pops up...NDSU. What will change that, simple, winning. Did NDSU cheat no, they won when it counted, in the playoffs. Should we be happy, hell no. More winning equals more attention equals more better recruits looking at their school over ours. And winning will change that. Bubba took the first step in getting this program out of the Muss hole and to a 7-4 record, Brewster had immediate success but is struggling, Jones came close to the dance but didn't make it. UND baseball got big props from the NCAA home run derby. Now on the flip side Bison football is king again, Bison men's basketball is king of the dance in terms of beating teams. UND needs more attention to their "non hockey" sports, we can win in more than just hockey. 2001 we won it all in football and almost won it all in hockey. 1997 we won it all in women's basketball and hockey. It can be done we can win in hockey and in football, basketball (not win it all but win in the dance), and maybe people will talk about UND sports and not about our nickname and NDSU sports. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carson Wentz's draft will bring much more attention than anything the bizon have done on the field. That said, I long for the days of Best Buy and petition gate.

SIOUXFAN97 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 is it a known fact that the MAC offers less than the max fbs scholly limit and if so do all schools figure out that number and are required to stay at that number and if so what is that number? and same for sun belt?
