A new and better FBS thread

Couple the two and you have what we have. To over come those hurdles you have to bring something incredible to the table. Which has nothing to do with sports.

Like this?

Your assumption that Gary supports NDSU is inaccurate.

Ouch. CAS, isn't he "once a Bison always a Bison"? He go big time and forget his roots?

SDSU fans seem to be against moving up which is fine. There is only so much FBS talent in MN and WI so this works. Hopefully Mo State and ISU red are ready to pull the trigger.

Looking at the current roster there is only so much FCS talent in ND, MN, SD, WI as well. I counted 47 players beyond the RRV ring of states (yeah, WI is outside that but it was part of AK's contention). There are players from CA, WA, FL, GA, TX, IL, MO, IA, NE, and KS on the current roster. FBS would not likely change the recruiting footprint for NDSU all that much.

well this is depressing AND we are losing a fanbase. Awesome!!! Great job Stony Brook!!


1 thing is for sure we are DEFINITELY going FBS without the other dakota schools & montana so book that. listen to this dummy https://twitter.com/MicIzzo/status/1...108276232?s=20

Stiggy says "WHY" well of course he says WHY because SDSU hasn't won shit! we've done it for 11 years now

Is Stig going to use the same recruiting argument that NDSU has used against G5 schools trying to recruit the same players? Why play in a crappy bowl game when you can be competing for a national title every year. We have some crappy years in the G5 and SDSU might start stealing our recruits…..

NDSU doesn't use that recruiting argument. NDSU uses the recruiting argument. "WE ARE NDSU, WE WIN GAMES, WE PUT YOU IN THE NFL"

Will it be harder to recruit local guys that want to play away games close to where their family lives so they can get to more games? Might be used as a argument to recruit against us.

Oh I guess competing for championships isn’t important anymore? Since when have we not used that to recruit or it that just your view………

I don't think there is a real concern that NDSU is going to lose quality players because a kid wants his mom and dad to be able to drive to Vermillion or Brookings to watch him play a road game once or twice a year.

If anything it works to our advantage. We get many of our skilled players from Florida, Georgia and Texas. We would have non conference games in Florida, Texas and Alabama

Most player families are just happy to have home games within driving distance. Of course these other teams also lose a short trip to Fargo every other year too

Also most northern kids would prefer to play games in the south come November

The the biggest factor is 22 more scholarships
