And haven't had a problem making their budget since things were addressed 7 years ago. Unlike other institutions that continuously decided kicking the can down the road while watching their enrollment continue to decline was the right answer. Does that $5 million bailout actually do anything except bridge this budget cycles gap? Doesn't sound like there were a whole lot of tough decisions made that will fix things in the future....

The Sicatoka Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 These potential changes ... if they happen are quite interesting. Key points: - 16 sports (not new) - $6M in grants (90% of scholarships allowed, 210 grants) - drop the attendance requirements UND is at $5.94M now and doing 17 sports. NDSU is doing 16 sports but is at $5M. SDSU is at $4.25M and 20+ sports. Montana St is almost $6M like UND but only 15 sports. Montana is $5.5M but only 15 sports. The knock on UND is "Alerus is too small". If that is no longer an issue, UND seems to have the smallest lift, namely just fund the additional FBS grants. Most curious.

nodak651 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Argument could be made that NDSU should bump their equestrian team up to the NCAA level. Surprised there hasn't been a lawsuit yet, especially after failing to cut the club program. 3rd prong of title 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Imagine the number "$5M" haunting you two ways: - it's all you're doing in athletic grants and raising that will get some Title IX eyeballs to verify all is well, or not - it's what the NDSU academic bailout was -- imagine the press: $5M academic bailout used as FBS FB buy-in I stand by my observation: Of the MTs, SDs, and NDs, UND has the smallest lift under the proposed rule, followed by NDSU.

I think the difference you are talking about is around $5 million. But, you need to consider the differences in programs supports by the department. NDSU has taken a very strategic approach to moving into FCS much like the Montana schools. But, moving up to FBS and MW could change some of those approaches. NOTE: Source USA Today Database.

Mama Sue Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 What a mess. Maybe just radio games, outdoor stadiums, and pay cash at the gate should come back. Too many fingers in the pie and every one of them wants to make money off college sports, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said this for a few years, or at least going back to when we dropped women's hockey and I did a little research. The A.D.'s office probably breaks into a cold sweat whenever they see 4-5 females coming into the office to discuss opportunity...whether it be Hockey, Rugby, Wrestling or something else. Looking at some of the bigger schools in the country it seems that women's rowing seems to be the way to even out the participation prong. Looking at the sheer numbers on B10 rowing rosters and I would wager there are 20-30 girls walking around campus who are unaware they are even on the team.

Not so sure…..corporate healthcare is not what it is cracked up to be. Although the GF area is large enough to support all specialties and sub specialities. It is the gobble-gobble of smaller area hospitals and clinics that change the small community landscape…forever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure they are aware they are on the team. My cousin went to Columbia for track. Went out to visit her and she introduced me to a friend who was on the rowing team. Turns out, the girl did not row in high school. Just had a solid build and the coach told her they'd teach her how when she got there. I'm sure the B1G schools engage in similar conduct lol. Coach needs to put a team together after all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being a little sarcastic. But for an event that usually requires 20 athletes I find it a little strange that the average D1 roster is 47 athletes and schools like Iowa and Wisconsin have 70-80 members listed on the teams. Just saying it seems to be a good way around one of the title 9 prongs or requirements. Just think at Wisconsin where they had 80 listed on their roster last season, someone is like 65th string. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
