Both teams are much larger than their TV market. NDSU is basically the entire state. SDSU is similar

But Brookings as a standalone town is pretty small time. It's an hour from Sioux Falls. It's...

I wouldn't consider that podcast a source

Al Carlson is running for Fargo City Commission again. Hot Carl just won't give up after 5 straight losses

I agree with that.

But you implied Brookings is more attractive than Fargo to conferences, which is where most people laughably disagree

Honestly the argument that Fargo (or Brookings) is in...

Heck Bismarck State is becoming a 4 year school and adding womens wrestling . They must read Bisonville

St Thomas will get really good in hockey real fast. I wish we would add it and build a...

NDSU is statewide coverage. Everyone gets it. Midco is a dying Network that is laying off employees and cutting programming because nobody has cable and they need a subscription to stream. I would be...

That would benefit lower levels of football for sure but getting through season would be difficult. You need pratice squad players

Yeah you clearly don't understand TV markets. Brookings Airport is the size of Jamestown. Fargo is getting a 200 million dollar upgrade and was ten times better before that. Claiming Sioux Falls as...

Nothing has been exhausted. He hasnt contacted any conferences or lobbied anyone, much less put feelers out to like minded schools

ML isn't a visionary like GT and he hopes someday a lawsuit is a...

Yep. Unless we're Power 5, the rest is irrelevant. No interest in playing in a beefed up MVFC at the G5 level. It will still have teams like Murray State, Indiana State, South Dakota and teams with...

Agree. The Great West was far from perfect but look how thst worked out for us. In retrospect, the Great West teams weren't even that good. Northern Colorado, Davis and Poly are very meh.

But...

Nobody cares about hockey while a team of kids that haven't enrolled in college yet (Fargo Force) outdraw Bison Basketball 4 to 1. Yeah I have to respectively disagree with that statement :rofl:
...

My main point is they were narrower than the Fargodome. Technically longer but a dramatically worse experience than the Fargodome. The Fargodome would be a great experience with added concourse...

Your memory obviously fades after 34 years. Concourses were for midgets

They squeezed 55k people in concourses way narrower than the Fargodome because they had 2 levels of tiny concourses.

Did you ever go to a game there?

Pearl Jam may not be the best example but many shows are outdoors in the summer and we don't have a large outdoor venue. People don't want to be indoors May through September.

An artist like...

Plus an outdoor stadium could host some massive shows, too big for the Fargodome. Trends seem to be going that way. Washington Griz stadium is hosting Pearl Jam this summer. I'm very jealous

The Metrodome lost a ton of money every year so it was a blessing to put it out of its misery. Plus they had a over a billion in revenue to work with and it was actually a smaller building than the...

You can still have a heated indoor concourse with an outdoor stadium. With good design you can limit wind too. Also FBS season ends much earlier than the FCS

Leveling the dome is a bad idea. We couldn't even afford to do it if we wanted to. Plus it's paid off

Building a 2nd stadium is a tremendous idea whether it's outdoors or indoors

A dome remodel...

They fit the Missouri Valley who wants private schools

I would add NW Missouri State to that list. Would be an upgrade over Misery State

Standalone would have been a better description lol

Matt was on the insiders and he said the #1 facilities upgrade is th3 Fargodome, then upgrades to the SHAC foe suite and club seating and an indoor wrestling...

Since ST isnt eligible, we can still win the conference and host next year. Problem is the Bunnies own us, even when they are in last place. May need Omaha to lose a few

We need an even number of teams and a better southern footprint. Makes sense
