Well with Dean announcing his stepping down...Quote:

ACTION is needed. izzo/forum people aren't insiders.
Dean B should leave a lasting legacy qnd spend next year and half securing a FBS conf for NDSU
I'm not sure he is in any position to lobby for such a move as a lame duck prez. If DB is really going to stick around through 2022, then we're even further away from FBS as we wait for the next president. The place we find ourselves in is pretty discouraging.Quote:

Why not. Can raise money fast and late amounts as foundation proved, national brand, more active alumni base in twin cities if fbs. Penn state small land grant in 50 60s in rural.pa surrounded by blue collar communities. Big time football put them on the map. But ND attitude.Quote:

Prominent Big 12 source tells the American-Statesman the Texas-OU move to the SEC is almost done. "They've been working on this for a minimum of 6 months, and the A&M leadership was left out of discussions and wasn't told about it." Move could become official in a week.
I thought conference moves were made by schools and their athletic leadership making it VERY CLEAR to the boosters and the public that they want to move???
Like he says on "The Karate Kid", Show the leg!!!
cmon. do something
this could be Brescianis legacy... FBS baby

Worth a listen … Izzo and MM firmly on the NDSU-to-FBS wagon, and gosh dang it, so am I. Let’s get this train rolling.
How about you Jeff K??
I'll admit this might be the catalyst for the move. I just can't imagine big twelve convincing ADs now that this thing isn't going to implode to some extent

The Big XII isn’t getting anyone from another p5 but is seems like there isn’t much down side for a lot of g5 teams rolling the dice with them?Quote:

There is no way a 8/10 conference team is going to compete. They add 4 teams maybe but better off adding 8 and not sure they can even do 4 that gets anyone excited. They'll need big market teams to help keep the tv money rolling.Quote:

“In conversations with sources around the Big 12, there was a resignation in the past 36 hours that Oklahoma and Texas were gone. The focus has shifted to the unwinding and the amount of money it can wring out of OU and Texas.”
Sounds like the Big 12 doesn't want to dissolve?
Is that all that surprising? I think the prophecies of the Big 12's demise are greatly exaggerated at this point. They'll definitely be knocked down a peg in terms of athletic prestige but I'm pretty sure they could replace Texas and OU tomorrow with Houston and Cincinnati and they'd still be a notch above any other league outside of the P4. You could even argue that, in the revenue sports, they'd still be about on par with the Pac 12.Quote:

Fun stuff though. Getting pretty stoked for the FCS/FBS season right around the corner ... Go Bison!!
if MWC loses Boise
if AAC loses Cinci or Houston
NDSU Ned's to be ready to make a sales pitch!!
No point in moving into a different conference that will be at the same level as the MVFC.Quote:

I'll take that bet about the G5 inviteQuote:

Better have that resume polished up and ready to go.Quote:

NDSU would be at the 2nd level of football but would have a more interesting schedule.
I think that would be good.
Agree 100%.Quote:

The only hold up I see is the future game contracts but they can be bought out. Maybe they don’t cancel them all right away but they will be fazed out IMO
