so assuming we got an invite to the MWC we wouldn't need to add sports? sorry that was a lot to read

Women's tennis and swimming/diving perhaps to offset the additional 22 scholarships. (Thanks title 9!)

Big 12 would be terrific if we could put up a 45,000 seat stadium and TEXAS/Oklahoma jump ship to sec

NDSU
Kansas
Kansas st
Iowa St

We could win that division!

Title IX is about A LOT more than scholarships. The 22 football scholarships are peanuts. Coach and assistant salaries are where the big bucks are and that's for football AND basketball.

Of course we would pay the Women's staffs more but nothing like the increases on the men's side.

Anybody know why Wyoming found it so easy to take pretty much our entire coaching staff? They did it because they could. They had the money and we didn't.

Largest crowd 33000 $33million stadium

Turn on ESPN 2 right now.
Espn2 sunbelt. UL-Lafayette at Texas State in San Marcus. Looks like. Funtime tailgating was rocking good crowd.

7-3 UL-L

it is a great stadium for starters for a school the size of NDSU.

man that'd be awesome.

"Hey what're you doin this tuesday"

"oh gonna tailgate, watch a football game thatl be aired on ESPN"

Baahahaha. The stadium was built in 1981.

The $33 million was the cost of an expansion in 2012.

so what'd it cost in 81? 10-15 mill? If this is what a ~40 mill dollar stadium starts out..NDSU should have been lobbying for this 2 years ago.
