NDSU to MOUNTAIN WEST ***********

[JBB2]

Just got in from moving snow, no news no texts. Nothing on the web sites. Maybe after lunch?

I got the TEXT

ITS HAPPENING

Where's the big announcement Pussy Boy?

[JBB2]

I’m not sure Lakes got the text but here is the latest from the Big Mountain

Lots of talk no action. Interesting discussion. No money in the media deal.

No media money makes it lean/unaffordable. If a move happens probably NDSU only. Earliest move 2027. Bison have MSU in Las Vegas, Weber & Citadel in Fargo.

BSC teams get MWC games but not NDSU.

FCS is growing. Competition is getting better, budgets larger. FBS Con USA plays pretty good football but overall ranked lower by Sagarin than most of the NDSU schedule. New MWC about the same as MVFC.

I don’t believe any D1A conference is eagerly awaiting the move to schedule NDSU.

It looks like years of FCS football ahead? Go Bison!

[JBB2]

The huge dollars have never been explained. Where are they going to come from. Apparently not the MWC media contract.

NDSU may be in the MWC right now if Jon Lindgren Fargo mayor at the time had not attacked and destroyed the original Fargo Dome plans with second deck expansion to 25,000. near sighted liberal lefty. NDSU professor of economics! Probably Ilan Omar’s advisor. Be careful where you donate your hard earned money.

Student fees are low. $300 would raise 3 mill. Will students agree to fund a semi-professional team, paying big player salaries? Maybe

10,000 students x $300. =. $3,000,000 still need 2 or 3 million/year to be a poorly funded MWC team.

The time is now. Can’t lose this momentum

X VERSION FOR NDSU FANS:

Forget it. There is no momentum.

AI summary of FULL TEXT:

Maybe if NDSU wasn’t shrinking? Common knowledge in 2008 was 20,000. 10,000 students is a lot of student athletic fees missing.

NDSU says the MWC hasn’t called. They don’t even schedule NDSU. MWC schedules into the BSC. No FBS teams schedule NDSU. Why?

NDSU doesn’t look like an average FBS school. A disproportionate amount of the schools budget would be spent to be an FBS bottom feeder

Maybe someday. But why? NDSU isn’t going to save the MWC. In fact the arrogance of NDSU fans is intense, removed from reality. The big game was half full. MSU looked far better. They will get the call

NDSU needs younger fans. Years of ridiculous BV FBS crowing has drained vitality from the program. Beating Iowa turned out to be a negative.

The FCS champions lost to Oregon in a rout. They were very lucky to squeak by The Redbirds. NDSU is 0-2 against the FBS in the modern era.

Maybe someday. I realized it a while ago.

Wise up NDSU fans:

The divisions were never organized around good football. It was tradition & institutional size. NDSU grew out of D2 to become the FCS school they are. Maybe someday they will look like an FBS school. They don’t now.

Where’s NDSU? Where’s the FBS money?
