I guess we could just pull a UND and start having a consistent drumbeat of shocking negative press. That way people come to expect not being able to hold us accountable for our actions.

Or we could just be clear that the majority of increased funding would come from conference affiliation.

Oh hey, funny how you thought there'd be more indigenous peoples' remains found at NDUS institutions. Guess you were right...

You guys remind me of an old Marx brothers scene:

Wagstaff: ... Where would this college be without football? Have we got a stadium?

Professor One: Yes.

Wagstaff: Have we got a college?

Professor One: Yes.

Wagstaff: Well, we can't support both. Tomorrow we start tearing down the college.

Since you’re here so much, why don’t you expound on how you think the fighting hawks are going to come to Fargo on the 19th and beat the Bison?

Also, who reps you off all the time on here, and do you reciprocate? Never mind. I don't want to know. I have to go vomit now …

Maybe this academic budget contraction will finally provide your team the opportunity you've been looking for to catch up to NDSU athletically. Seems on brand for UND to look to such strategies.

Thank your for your surely deep and heartfelt concern. <-- just imagine the purple

I'd ask you the same, but my interest is at the level of yours as well.

The conferences that would provide a “majority” needed for increased funding aren’t inviting NDSU.

Declining enrollment is going to bad the next few years, interest costs on loans has doubled from last year already and the Fed in not close to being done. Only solution looks to be closing UND and and make NDSU a 20k undergrad full academic institution. Keep the hockey program in GF so the locals don’t notice and collapse all their other sports.

LIBERTY beats Arkansas.... but ya I'd rather beat WIU

I love when liberty is successful because it proves that Jesus is real and a republican. I’m also sure it makes ECE8HC uncomfortable so win-win.
