    We can fund this. It is the cost of doing business. If you are not moving forward you are falling behind.

    I've said this many times but there will be 2 possible outcomes.

    1) Negatively impacts recruiting. We lose out on the next Marcus Williams, John Crockett, or Billy Turner to other teams. Could be to a MAC school or even a PWO to the Gophers over a full ride.

    2) The playing field is equal or gives us an advantage.

    I'll take #2 100 times out of 100.

    I really like the idea of giving it to walk ons too since we can load up on Minnesota kids who will already get in state tuition due to reciprocity. Paying a stipend is almost like giving them a half scholarship which would be a huge deal when you have kids choosing between a D2 scholarship or a walk on at NDSU. Lots of talented Minnesota kids out there. It's almost like increasing your scholarships closer to the FBS level and we should all want that.
    Who said walk ons are eligible for COA? If they get COA they would be considered a scholarship player would they not?

    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.

    Why is Matt Larson still saying wait and see? We need to be announcing we are doing this and get the ball rolling. I upped my TM dues to cover my share of this. We need to quit stalling and just do it.

    Why should Matt Larson give all of NDSU's competition a heads up on NDSU's plans?

    Why not give our recruits and players the security of knowing we are definitely doing this? Obviously Liberty isn't scared of the "competition".

    I'm quite sure our recruits and players are not in the dark.

    Liberty has wanted to go FBS for years but can't do it without an invitation from an FBS conference.
