1660am rebranding to "The Bison."

Fun fact, UNI has played 7 FBS games in the last 5 seasons.

Playing them is easy. Winning them is another story.

NDSU wins too much to even be able to schedule 7 in 5 seasons. Not even a possibility.

Apparently their AD does this because they need the money......like really, really bad. They've had some pretty good games against FBS teams, but can't quite finish them for wins (they're 1-6).

And they turned away my $1 donation a few years back.

They spent alot of money to give back money. Sounds about right.

Hopefully North Dakota doesn't try to do something like this and try to funnel more money to the F'hawkers. Of course, this scenario can't happen unless NDSU ends up in a conference that has huge TV contracts.

I know a few years ago, there were talks of dropping programs like wrestling at UNI just to fix their budget woes, but that in itself could have hurt the university even more consider that we (USAW) would have had to move two huge wrestling tournaments (Preseason and Folkstyle Nationals) somewhere else. Both of those events draw between 2,000 an 2,500 participants a year. I don't know the exact financial breakdown on how the money is doled out for these events, but I'm pretty sure UNI gets a fair percentage, while Cedar Falls gets a nice bump financial in the local economy during those two weekends each year.

I can't figure out how to download a copy of the show over wifi and listen to it offline other than to pay $10/month for the premium version of Soundcloud. I can find lots of options for streaming the show, but am looking for something that won't eat up my data. I looked through this thread and found the RSS feed Trumpster posted, but that didn't work in Podcast Addict. Just looking to download the show and listen to it like any other podcast. What am I missing?

If the SBHOE gets their way, Ed Schafer will be our president and will cut a bunch of unnecessary things and push our university into irrelevance.
