BTW had to listen to alot of whining from people here about NDSU BB being on TV instead of hockey. Guess they were not bright enough to check the guide to see that hockey was televised on another channel.:smh:

The state can still chip in for the BSA improvements. No reason they can't throw in 5 to 10 million for a facility that has not had much in the way of upgrades in 40 years (how much is the state helping UND for their indoor practice facility?). Athletic facilities get physically worn out and needs change faster than most (not all) academic facilities.

I really can't believe that the vast majority out in western ND didn't pay a little attention when NDSU got to the dance.
As for roads......those who tear-em up (truckdrivers) maybe need to pay a little more to make up for their abuse of the roads.
So keep on laughin Grizzled.....just like those who visit the BSA do when they see the pathetic facility a STATE university in ND has..............
At minimum, the state should fund the BSA rennovations (raised track, new offices, remodeled bathrooms, expanded weight room, and additional basketball practice courts). That would allow private donations to be focused on the new arena.

Those that tear up the roads do pay for them in the form of taxes to their businesses. Where do you really think a vast majority of that surplus came from? A huge portion of it came from the oil activity. And your telling me I have no pride? WTF? I'm just stating to you some facts. I don't live out west anymore but am just stating how it is. And people on the east side of ND have the same mentality towards the western half. Its weird but its the way it is.

I intended to say apparently those in western ND have no pride. Sorry the comment came out about you. I will edit.

You are incorrect, the reclassification is not why Centenary is not allowed to participate. Centenary is being disciplined for poor athletic academics. The move to DIII is a response to being shuned from the tourney/coincidence.

Fairly good article overall, a real + from the normal forum bison trashing :P.

You would think they would either know what there talking about, or not mention it. I mean the sentence wasnt really nessecary, and it was an article in a published document....not lakes bs'ing on the internet.

Re: GDT: NDSU vs SDSU

I checked my phone late that night of the game to see the score and couldn't believe it. Jacks pissed their pants....yet again. Jack fans have been waiting for this year for nearly 4 years. The Fab Five would be gone, and they would hopefully have a semi respectable team, knock us around a couple times on the basketball court, and then send 4 years worth of cooped up smack our direction. Man are those rabbits eating crow right about now. Not only did we graduate the Fab Five, but they also returned nearly their entire roster, easily have their best team since the transition began, we lose 2 starters to injury and another promising true frosh guard, and they still get B-slapped around on their own court none the less.

As far as the summit tourney, it would be incredibly tough to beat the same team 3 times in the same year so I don't know if we want to face them in the first round. I just hope one of the xDSU's gets the chance to knock the living tar out of Oral Roberts. As long as those whiny B's go home on the first night I'll be happy no matter who wins!!
