    Im saying. NDSU HAS ALREADY DOMINATED FCS. FACT. People around the country ask why NDSU isn't FBS, they see that we should be FBS and winning 3,4 or 10 titles in a row is enough to prove that we are worthy.

    Im very proud of how NDSU has done and what NDSU is doing... I JUST THINK WE COULD DO MORE!! and make an even bigger name for our university. that is all.
    I honestly hope the ban you as i cant listen to this anymore on ignore you go

    Its quite disturbing to read all of the "wait and see" people take such a strong opposition to you chapo.

    and its also one thing to whine about your "same song and dance", but its another thing to KNOWINGLY click on this thread, and then doing this to your ownself.

    Thats what I dont get. if youre going to pick against moving up, you're pretty much choosing to go down with the ship and begin to get up for home games vs Mankato and Bemidji St.
    Completely agree with the bolded. Couldn't disagree more with the statement that directly follows it.

    you think some of these programs are going to be able to survive without an FBS payout?

    Many schools survived without the payouts for years before they started being tomato cans for the big boys. They will just have to change their funding model.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    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.

    and/or come down on the scholarship count somewhat and merge with the top of the FCS at a sustainable number for more members of the non-contract leagues while the bottom of the FCS does the same with D-II.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    In the long run, I don't think there will be 3 divisions in "Division 1". I think the P5 breaks away and then there will be the rest - similar to how it was 10-15 years ago before a bunch of FCS teams moved up. I don't see it happening soon and definitely don't see NDSU moving up before that's figured out.

    I think that the Pioneer keeps proving over and over to be sustainable and win you have to have some semblance of scholarship athletes. Why else do the first 2 teams eligible for an autobid get found to have irregularlities in funding for athletes. IMO to compete at this level of football you need to have a certain minimum scholarships. While I don't know where this leaves the IVY because they don't participate in the postseason, I believe there is some desire in some of the schools to participate in it.
