NDSU Athletics: oderint dum metuant
If we have to give up a home game this is going to have to gross a shit ton of money for NDSU to make what they do at the dome. Plus they are betting on the come that fans are blindly going to go to the cities and pay an inflated price to watch a ????not so good team???? in a not so football friendly viewing stadium. Of course those very important details have to be worked out before its finalized.
If we concentrated on the really important stuff in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles"
When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
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.

The good news is they're not blindly jumping into this. ML stated that a number of things have to come together. I'm guessing at least two of them are how much the Twins get to keep and who they can line up for an opponent. Points that several people have made on here. I doubt they'll do it if it doesn't add up for NDSU. So have a little confidence in the administration....they're not perfect, but they have a pretty damn good batting percentage in this whole DI journey.
Get your BB tickets now!!!
You have a fan base that drops 15 million to go to frisco. 5 million to go to Iowa city. Assumes 1000 per person per game. This is money NDSU is not capturing. A game at NDSU grosses 800k.
This is the opportunity cost lost by the program. NDSU fans have had money to spend. NDSU does not capture it. Frisco Iowa city. Capture that discretionary income
Are we going to have to buy a ticket to USD/Colgate to get one of these Minneapolis tickets?
I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans
