@PiosChuck@tommillergf Not everyone has such an inferiority complex that they wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and ask "How can I make everything about me today?" but I've sure seen some valiant efforts to do so out of Fargo.
Interesting. After the additional scholarship, 2/3's of financial aid and opportunities will go to males. This remains compliant since NDSU uses Title IX Prong 3 (student interests) to be compliant. If @NDSU_W_Hockey ever wanted to make a push, there will never be a better time.
@CraigHaley2025 I mean, if you set aside the costs of adding a member that dilutes a declining media contract more than they would add to it plus having to fly Oly sports halfway across the country, then yeah, I guess there aren't any excuses. But who thinks like that? Probably not Presidents.
@YSUPL@SamHerderFCS The politicians are probably more concerned about budget deficits, growing deferred maintenance and declining enrollment (sorry, flat enrollment since it has magically been the exact same number 3 years in a row ๐).
@DomIzzoWDAY@UNDFootball360 When did the MVFC start playing 12 conference games?
And when do you start taking into account what talent a player is surrounded by?
On offense, NDSU had 7 players on the 1st team or 2nd team excluding their QB. YSU had 2.
@daufman2 @SamHerderFCS Is that why they got a $5M bailout this year from the state legislature and are likely going to need even more this year? Their overall budget has a giant hole in it. Not exactly the "smell of money".
@Tbollingberg1@UNDFootball360 Speaking of rent free....the number of NDSU fans replying to a UND Football account. ๐
You guys still doing the UND chants after every first down in the dilapidated dome that no one wants to pay to update?
@Swany8@MattBrownEP Then how's the actual university so broke? NDSU needed $5M last year in add'l funds from the state and there are rumors that the ask this year is going to be above that. Already not great optics look even worse if true. One time donations are also different than sustainable funds
@RossUglem Imagine hanging your hat on saying that #2 Ohio State/#3 Oregon, #9 Ole Miss/#13 LSU, Florida/#8 Tennessee and #9 Iowa State/WVU being "far inferior viewing competition". Calm down the hyperbole.
Plus the timeslot was similar but not the same.
But whatever fits the narrative...
@UNDFootball360 SOS will be (allegedly) be a much bigger focus come playoff time. Here's where the Top 10 sit in that category:
1. SDSU - 25
2. Mont St - 19
3. Furman - 47
4. USD - 39
5. Delaware - 64
6. Mont - 42
7. Idaho - 8
8. Sac St - 20
9. WCU - 36
10. IWU - 78
Being one TD off on the final margin was the only thing that was even in the ballpark with those predictions @RossUglem, naturally in wrong direction of course. Good thing for that garbage time touchdown otherwise it was a complete whiff. Whoops.....
We've been hyping it up and it's here. #BRR

@GulsethMichael@Lucas_Semb Prior to this season, there wasn't a single example of the highest bid not hosting and no one ever thought the NCAA would leave money on the table, let alone $87K, yet here we are. The committee has now empowered themselves to arbitrarily do whatever they want.
@matthewfraase On top of the fact that UND's bid was over 3x what Weber State's was, that hockey school put in a higher bid than NDSU in the first round.
@kylorEPH@JasonKrogstad@UNDFootball360@FCSNationRadio1 Hear me out, no they, actually don't.
Weird how your so confident all these other bids that haven't been made public though?
Hopefully you're taking notes for your "I was wrong" tour. Not a coincidence some of the schools are slow playing fulfilling FOIA requests...
@BisonReport@RossUglem@ValleyFootball Interesting insight and fair explanations, but somehow not at all shocked to see not one but two shots taken at one of the top rated QB's in the conference. Just can't quite get past the passive aggressive comments on players on teams you don't care for when you get the chance.
@trafikjamz@UNDFootball360 As much as I don't like it, UNI probably is around a top 20 team. They can surely beat more than a few teams in the playoff field and almost did in 3 close losses this year including the top 2 seeds. But there is a point you have to win games instead of playing good teams tough.
