    But what really turned my view back around was looking at this from the perspective of the rest of FCS. They hate us because we’re the 6th grader who refuses to graduate and just sticks around and dominates on the playground. At some point it becomes obnoxious. You can say "up your game" but realistically NDSU is a man among boys in FCS, with the gap only widening. To continue to do that indefinitely is bad karma, IMO.

    You’d need the state to fill the gap of student fees - so some very good PR work is in order - but it is good to hear that the AD is now looking into it. It is time to do so now, or it will be in fairly short order.
    Yeah it seems like nobody who has moved up regrets it. Granted, how many would ever admit that they thought the decision was a bad one.

    If we concentrated on the really important stuff in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles"

    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.

    I think the NDSU to FBS thread should merge into this legendary thread... this has all the info

    I been harping on this move since 2013 when the MAC was going to invite us but NDSU admin didn't want it. (according to hush hush sources)
