    do I think we should be jumping ASAP no, do I think we need to at least feel the water and see how warm it is...hell yes and that means by the State, boosters, conferences etc..


    i would imagine when we happen to win 5 the pressure will be pretty high

    Because the first four could just be a fluke?

    Last year K-State fans publicly started posting messages to kick TCU out and bring in THE Bison. This news is not surprising.
    " Our strategy for winning against BISON was simple, we put our WRs and RBs in a 1 on 1 situation with their defense in the backfield.....everybody knows they have some freshman who cannot tackle in a 1 on 1 situation.....Joe Glen"

    While this is a long shot at best, it is fun to see the speculation in the national media.

    With respect to winning 4, 5, or 8 in a row, I don't think it matters much because it doesn't directly impact any of the reasons it's difficult to move up.

    I agree that the speculation is fun, but where would the money come from? Not me. And how would a market this size sustain the kind of funds necessary to be competitive in the long term?

    get a new teammaker executive not the ONLY REMAINING D2 Dinosaur!! Start getting creative !! Advertising/Marketing and cultivating a 20 year plan for the Mountain West.

    Offer to pay for every team's travel's to Fargo for first 4 years. (24 games)

    Dipping into thier college playoff money and big dance money and TV revenue would help NDSU by $20+ million /year!
