Hell yea let's go

I see 0 movement (per usual) from our Stony Brook team ....... they just want to hold onto this for as long as they can milk it. They got handed this to them and it shows. pathetic.

the fact is that YOU CAN BE IN THE CFP SYSTEM as a G5 GUARANTEED TEAM and these dip$hits won't even give NDSU football that chance.

It is pretty much zero movement everywhere. It is likely that nothing happens before the Pac 10 gets things figured out. I am unconvinced much will happen after either.

I've moved on. It's liberating. Let me know the next time we're FCS champs. That's adorable when we do that.

These strike me as odd questions. Going FBS should have nothing to do with the state, taxpayers, fargo, etc.

Now, if ND or Fargo or taxpayers were footing the bill for the extra funding required then I could understand the question. The reality is however that athletics gets very little funding from either.

NDSU however does have a pretty good ROI for Fargo and the state of ND but that is more academics related.

Eh, pretty good shot ND and Fargo would be the ones footing the bill. To go FBS and succeed there, we probably need a new place to play. NDSU probably ain't building a new football venue without one or both the city and state. ND taxpayers and student fees pay for millions in the athletic budget.

Exactly^^^^
not to mention more marketing/advertising/exposure to attract tourists and businesses which would impact the states bottom line.

NDSU going FBS saves NDSU athletics. period. otherwise the slow bleed out is gonna be depressing
