Hard to believe this morning the bison are an also-ran.

Noticed ticket prices for the natty are going down.

Maybe, just maybe…..As teams get twisted off confident fans lose enthusiasm for the game, maybe like me don’t even like football anymore so they try and sell, supply goes up, price goes down….. :!:

Might be better to get them late?

If only NDSU had teams like San Jose State or Sam Houston on the schedule. Bison fans FBS dream come true.

If true it’s exciting news. Any details on the offer?

From The Big Mountain podcast Smoke is real but nothing eminent. Discussions are reported to be under way with NDSU, UC Davis.and Tarleton.

httpsa://youtu.be/TiZwXNQrADQ?si=RFuPBRuT7zTV_528

UCD seems conflicted. Tarleton on the verge the big catch being NDSU. 2027 is as soon as practicle. SDSU mentioned and Sac State. SDSU as future prospect, Sac State as a dark horse.

Make a hell of a deal AD Larsen. The value of the NDSU football prigram to the MWC is very high indeed. The risks huge.

For better or worse it appears the tale of two futures may be unfolding: Idaho or James Madison? the third way, staying FCS may still be the best. NDSU has a very strong position, solid FCS future. FBS has terminal risk.

Und fans are excited about moving up too. They think they will move up to NDSUs spot atop the FCS.

My guess: Wyoming will be the first team in Fargo.

Something is going. The deal seems to be under negotiation. No guarantee a deal can be made.

The internal moves by NDSU are revealing. Larsen says NDSU looks like an FBS prigram, more realignment is coming and NDSU must be ready. 65% chance NDSU. MWC 2027

It will be fun if it happens, I hope

There is skepticism that anything will happen soon. NDSU is playing it smart, close to the vest. It’s bubbling under.

This one talks about a broad range of MWC expansion candidates. The Dakota schools are mentioned but it is suggested the MWC doesn’t have enough money to make leaving their current situation worthwhile. It’s a couple weeks old.

Before NDSU can even think of moving there’s work for Lakes to do. He has fired several coaches, the President, The AD, I’m not sure if Hedberg is back on staff but he may need replacement too. He said they are a bunch of idiots

There is rumor of a clandestine rural substance delivery operation operated out of bv they say does very well. They may be able to keep FBS NDSU football solvent? I don’t see them stepping up! That’s probably a pipe dream?
