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.

It's OK to not be OK.

The FCS crowd's argument for staying FCS = all things El Chapo. "Chapo is inconsistent; Chapo doesn't kick in enough money; Chapo is too critical; Chapo is a dick to ML and DB; Chapo trolls FBS boards; Chapo is a hypocrite as he still likes certain FCS rivalries...and for all these reasons, we should stay in FCS." It isn't about Chapo, or Lakes, or whatever his primary moniker is. NDSU outgrew FCS after the 5th or 6th national championship. We're bleeding fans and we're bleeding relevancy. We need to move to FBS.

I don't care what Jim says. That is not the real Ben Franklin. I'm 99% certain.

Professorbum's broader point is true though. There are literally hundreds of examples in the last 2 months on here of an individual dismissing the idea of FBS for no other reason than that Lakes supports it lol.
Just because someone you disagree with likes something, doesnt mean its a bad idea.
Conversely 56, your opinion of "if NDSU thinks its good, its good. If it thinks its bad, its bad" is completely hairbrained. This, Ironically is exactly the same logic as thinking something is bad because Lakes thinks its good, and visa versa.
Unironically, you hold both of the illogical opinions above, so at least your consistently illogical.
An idea is either good or bad on its own merits. It doesnt matter who's idea it is. People you like, arent always right, and people you dont like arent always wrong
1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
3. It's time to go FBS
