So now we have another thread that's become all about FBS. I'm all for going but we don't need to ruin this board by injecting the topic into every single thread. Pretty soon, CAS is going to be taking more de-wormer due to the infectious nature of FBS talk on BV.

I'm bumping this one.
So you have no answer. I understand they have said the 2nd tier thing in the past. but everything has changed so incredibly since that time, to pretend that our situation is the same as before is to completely ignore reality. It also ignores the reality that ML said this calendar year that if teams start leaving the FCS, it may be time to start reevaluating our situation. You cant pick ML soundbites you like, and ignore the ones you dont. He said both. I want someone to ask him to simply clarify.
Its wild that you think having the AD address a question about the changing landscape of the division is just too insane and inappropriate that it doesn't even merit a response. lol. Its not "mUh fBs!" to ask a question about the deterioration of the FCS and have ML comment if it concerns him or not.
I know you dont want to go FBS, and that's ok, but all of the endless pearl clutching at the idea that someone should ask a question to the man in charge is pretty ridiculous to me
1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
3. It's time to go FBS

I think it is impossible to limit ALL FBS talk to a single thread. It is an issue that permeates so many other issues. Think about the Bison Fatigue thread. That isn't necessarily an FBS thread. It is a thread to speculate about the causes of fandom decline. But of course FBS is going to be a part of that discussion. I see the thread moves as a silencing of dissent. Which is fine. I've wasted too much time already over the past few months thinking about this issue and arguing a position. Fans don't have a say. We're not moving to FBS with the current leadership, which means the clock will run out and we won't be moving to FBS at all. Not much left to discuss that hasn't been discussed. I'm going to move on. The basketball season awaits my undivided attention.

I don't care what Jim says. That is not the real Ben Franklin. I'm 99% certain.
Seriously, this isn't an FBS thread.
