    Default Liberty to FBS Indy

    Well a powerhouse program is out of our way

    NCAA granted them a waiver to transition without an invite, interesting

    Laugh if you want but they were one of the best funded programs in FCS. JMU will be next....This is the 1990's all over again with the better funded programs moving up.

    Yeah they pay Turner Gill almost 750 grand! (with incentives and stuff) That's so far ahead of the rest of the FCS it's almost laughable. That's where I would like to see our payroll be some day.

    Yep. Hopefully the P5 helps bring them back to us otherwise we are being left behind again.

    Serious question, is one of the reason for the move because as strange is it may sound it's easier to get into and win a bowl game than to win the FCS Championship. Not strange that it's harder to win the chipper but strange that a school would move up because they believe their fanbase/players will enjoy winning cruddy bowl games more than routinely getting bounced in the FCS playoffs. At least that way you've won something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Appy st georgia southern coastal unc charlotte liberty all to fbs.. Where is ndsu???

    this is borderline pathetic. we are losing recruits (to wyo, new mexico, coastal etc) only cuz we arent fbs, coaches are going now (and Bohl) and the buzz around town just isnt the same anymore. thousands of ndsu fans DONT EVEN TRY to get tickets anymore since its impossible.

    NDSU AD admitted on radio that we are stuck in the 3rd tier, does this guy not understand the WE ARE NOT STONY BROOK?? P5, G5, FCS (dont give me the bowl excuse, frisco in 38 degree weather on a soccer field isnt cool anymore)

    He hasnt even called craig thompson of the mountain west. we'd be 7th in attendence and wouldnt they rather have a full house at 20k instead of 20k in a 40k stadium looking half empty?

    oh heres another thing. NDSU is losing millions of dollars last few years, the city of fargo/dome rakes in the dollars that NDSU brought them

    time to build a 42,000 on campus on practice fields. semi enclosed roof to keep out the wind. $150 million. find 4 companies to shell out $25mil each, they get thier own corner of stadium for products/advertising. raise $50mil by ndsu then NDSU KEEPS ALL REVENUE. screw the city and state of nd. .. they wont help NDSU so lets do it ourselves.

    2020 home schedule = Boise St, Wyoming, Colorado st etc. better homes for all of our sports and you would get shared CFPlayoff money, more march madness money, more shared TV money, raise student fees as well.

    time for NDSU & Fargo to flex our muscles, what happened to "bring on the competition!" lets get some fundraisers that have the balls to get more money

    fcs is dead NDSU OWNS IT, hell we dominated it and we Subsidized it for the ncaa. frisco, sdsu, usd, uni und everything lives off of us, quit being whores, time to PIMP THIS RIDE!!
