    The supposed constitutional prohibition doesn't make sense. While I suppose a state can put what it wants into its constitution, it would be highly unusual to put something like that in a constitution.

    So...go to the source and read for yourself. Here's a link to the Nebraska Constitution. http://www.neded.org/files/research/.../nebconst.html

    There is a section that deals with the general control of the U of Nebraska but in a quick read-through, I saw nothing addressing sports. Go to CVII-10 in the Nebraska Constitution.

    These message boards (not just Bisonville -- ALL message boards) may be the most efficient method of spreading false information yet invented by man.
    Go Jackrabbits!

    All I can say is if they do, they'd better spend a mother-lovin' fortune on their basketball program because that is the ****only**** shot they've got.

    Heck. I'd argue that they should drop football if they go D-1. They are already grossly non-compliant with the proportionality test of Title IX.

    They mentioned both UNO and St. Clown, er, Cloud State while on WDAY on Saturday.

    What's wrong with that? The NCC was a pretty fine conference back in the DII days...Hell, your own AD thought it was necessary to run it after UNC, NDSU, SDSU and Morningside left it.

    And, of course, Idaho State is better than every ex-NCC school because it's farther away, right?

    Welcome to the new and improved NCC.
    St. Cloud's athletic program is broke as a two-cent nickel up a hobo's dumper. They still don't know if the will keep football. They will not make such a move for a LONG time. Ever read the NSIC forum on the D2Messageboard?? They are having MAJOR fiscal issues there.

    We sure as heck didn't make the jump to DI to play with the likes of St. Cloud and UNO. We don't need schools like that in the Summit. If that happens Sic will come over and give us shit....and we will just have to take it. St. Cloud.....and UNO would be terrible additions.

    St. Cloud and UNO don't have the money for it. Don't worry, they won't be making such a move.
