IF the rumblings come to be, and the FBS splits and the Big 5 take their ball and leave, I think most of us feel that NDSU should be in that second level of football. And although we feel like we could field a competitive team but what about the institution? Think about it guys, Wyoming just took our coach because we couldn't compete financially. If the split happens, these guys will be our peers, not a level up. We just got our lunch money taken by one of our possible future competitors. I think we got some work to do.
You are correct. We did lose our coach. But by moving up how does that change anything? It doesnt unless NDSU figures out a way to bring in an additional 10 million a year EVERY YEAR.

It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.
