I would say 9-2 is a reasonable expectation. This should be the best team the Bison have ever had with a lot of talented players returning. I think 2008 will be a step back due the loss of Steve...

Are there any private schools?
Maybe someone in Casper could start a University of Casper like the Universty of Sioux Falls. Or something.
My intentions are never anything like that.
People can think what they want.
The majority of online bison fans are not like me and they will see that if they read them.
X, man, you're just rubber stamping the status quo.
Stop playing it so safe. Have some vision.
UND is going to drag USD with them through the DI transition. That much is a given. At least in...
I'd love to see ND become the silicon valley of the us for Energy.
Bio, nuclear, wind, solar. Everything.
And having two doctoral research universities and 9 junior colleges is not a bad...
I would think it would be colder in Bismark.
Maybe less snow?
Wyoming has 1 large doctoral reseach university and 7 two year schools.
That is the ideal system for a low population state, in my opinion.
North Dakota could be close to to this by having 2...
I say that once an area reaches around 50k (GF/EGF clearly is above that) there will be enough service jobs generated for the population to self perpetuate itself.
IE the same number of births as...
Actually, from 1990-2000 Burleigh County grew 15% and Cass Count grew 13%.
Bismark is a metro area as well. It's Buleigh + Morton.
Not to take away from your post or anything but, the Bismark area grew 13% from 1990-2000.
A bunch of MAC, Horizon, and MVC schools.
I think NDSU can and should make the Mid Con a more permanent home for out athletics.
We can make the Mid Con our own conference along with the...
SCSU only has 20 something for football. I think USD has 30 something though. I know the NCC has a minimum of 30 something.
To say that USD doesn't have the money to move DI is the same thing as...
Saint Cloud is not moving. They already expressed interest in joining the NSIC if the NCC folds.
USD, on the other hand, is studying a potential move.
I think UND will drag USD kicking and...
You very well could be correct given the current situation.
The simple rule in college athletics, esp. football though, is that winning fixes everything.
If Temple can win a couple MAC titles...
Maybe cutting the hockey team is the answer?
UND and USD will be in the Great West for the 2009 season and that will likely be the first year they're back on NDSU's schedule.
That's fine with me. Hopefully they'll have their scholarships up...
Well, that's what the move to the MAC is supposed to help.
If they could get a couple 9 win season there, recruiting could pick up, etc.
They have everything they need as far as facilities...
I do.
The MIAA is an option, but it's not the best option for UNO. The NCC is.
You certainly have a point.
But if Temple can start winning, things could turn around for them.
They bring the Phila. market and Rutgers is a mere hour away up New Jersey.
Except for USD.
They'll be welcomed into the Mid Con in a few years with UND.
UNO will stick it out in the NCC. I'm sure of that.
They'll bring in UNK, Augi will bring in Northern State,...
UNO will stay in the NCC.
They'll bring in UNK and probably Northern State, Winona, and Bemidji.
And then the school won't have to be closed which (somehow) means that the town is saved as well as none of the sports have to be cut.
They can compete in the MonDak conference with NDSCS.
And when Temple leaves for the Big East (travel partner for Rutgers) SIU will be the MAC's new 14th member.
Further depleting the Gateway to the point where Western Ill. would likely come over to...
I think I have a better plan than that: turn Mayville into a junior college.
I'm not real interested in seeing any of the MN schools or Augi make the jump up. I don't think they can do it. Maybe Augi but I don't think so.
I would like to see UND and USD right along side us...
