SWSiouxMN Posted August 8, 2022 Author Posted August 8, 2022 So according to the D1 docket, UND will host a holiday tournament this year. Cal State Fullerton and Utah Tech (formerly Dixie State) are two of the teams. Still looking for a 4th Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted August 8, 2022 Author Posted August 8, 2022 If accurate, getting Cal State Fullerton to come up is a nice pull, they went to the NCAAs from the Big West Conference last year. Quote

There isn't one Power 5 school that will ever travel to UND..... just won't happen.... the reality is scheduling is extremely hard for UND.... not a lot of teams are dying to travel to Grand Forks for no pay day.... they could care less about the return home game... they would rather not make the trip at all.

How about other mid-majors (before mid-majors are basically kicked out of Division I)? We could work with NDSU and get teams to come to North Dakota for two games (Friday-Saturday or Saturday-Sunday). Quote

So you the ND schools to agree on who to play, work out the right dates for everyone, who plays who first, etc...Then you want those schools to agree to play both ND schools and fit it into what they are looking for in their schedule? It's a great thought, and I'm sure it's something that they are trying to do, however it's a lot more complicated than everyone wants it to be. Quote

LDL Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 Would ndsu rather partner like this with UND or SDSU? I'm not sure they are of the mindset to do anything that helps UND. Working with SDSU helps themselves and hurts UND in my opinion. Thoughts? Quote

UND and NDSU are going out to Portland in December (3rd UND, 5th NDSU) They are both hosting Pacific in November. (13th NDSU, 15th UND) Why would SDSU need to use NDSU when USD is right there? Quote
