So dream on people, or get the damn checkbooks out.
    Time for the damn planners to start sharing information on specific smaller projects in the works and then the damn fundraisers can present a detailed list so thousands of Bison fans without deep pockets can select a project and write a check for $50, $100, $500, etc. Tired of the NDSU attitude of the average guy doesn't count and all focus is on the big donors. Average guys in large numbers can help get these smaller projects done. Of course, people who donate small amounts won't get their name called out, but at least it would motivate people to give so they can say to their friends and family that they helped get a certain project done.

    What's cool is most of the smaller donors couldn't give a damn if they're recognized. They will donate because they care about the program and want us to be successful.

    I was by the dome today and was checking out the SHAC from a distance and it appeared they are tearing down the fence around the tennis courts and cleared all the vehicles out of there. Are they just in need of space to take the bubble down or are they ripping it out? Anyone hear anything? Sorry offseason is slow
