It seems the above post puts this into perspective. Most football programs are impacted and few are immune to the ravages* of NIL/transfer portal.

*my word and my opinion

I hope this can be publicized in the regular media too.

Which came first - the chicken or the egg? If we saw a winning season or a trip to the Big Dance, (which we have in some years past for the men), we would see more fans out there.

Civic Center? You mean downtown Fargo next to the Downtown Fargo Library and City Hall. It is not used much and I think something should be done with it. I also would like to know about the vacant...

Could it be any closer? I am thrilled for Iowa.

Exactly how I feel. I am at a loss now. Are we throwing money at ..... what?

Loyalty to one's team is nonexistent.

No school is immune as you are becoming aware. It is just destroying college sports.

HerdBot probably know more about this than I do, but I did watch the Planning Commission meeting and there is a good plan in place. Jade Nielsen is pretty accomplished and smart with events. He spoke...

Stunning. He should be able to gussy up the outside.

HerdBot: Is the Angel Arena that unusual and maybe mystical looking building with TONS of vines? I think in the past it was kind of a maintenance bldg for City of Fargo. Always intrigued by it. If...

thanks. I think it is a good deal. My real reason for bringing this up was when the Dec 5th vote was set to occur, and a true convention center was on the ballot, there were a lot of people who said,...

HerdBot - you probably know this since you follow everything but I saw a headline in Forum about Jade trying to get a concert/event center on the western edge of downtown. Interesting.

well, maybe Jacks have a very good, forward-thinking A.D./Athletic Department/Fan Engagement person.

I hope NDSU Athletics can really promote this to the entire community and not just NDSU people, alums etc.

Thrilled. Hope he gets a bump-up in salary.

I think media people often use the mid-sized Fargo market as a stepping stone to larger markets. Plus she is from the JMU area (or at least graduated there), maybe wanted to get back into warmer...

No its spelled "the poors."

You can't undo sprawl. Sadly

And even though all of us should know that a lodging tax is paid for by hotels, I had read COMMENTS by some people (pre Dec 5th vote) that think the lodging tax is to be borne by citizens. :facepalm:

Probably for the best. Kind of a rush to get a June vote. Need to be very, very strategic and leave no stone unturned.

And Dana Mogk said on the WDAY news thing - "we are expecting to learn more when the Committee meets tomorrow." I assume that is the Dome Authority? Or it is a "Reimagined" type of committee? Maybe...

That needs an explanation/clarification BIG TIME. And many voters (human nature being human nature) will either overlook that verbiage (if it is true) or else discount it or find a way to negatively...

I did actually contact the Foundation/Alumni Association before the vote, but they were at some fundraiser out of state and "couldn't promise" any type of notification to members, publicizing the...

Whatever HerdBot says on FARGODOME matters is always correct. It goes without saying that the DOME people need to read the room right, and get it right this time. If a second vote fails, bad news. Go...
