In a G5 conference, there will be a struggle to be either the next Boise State and not being the next Bowling Green in regards to recruiting. If you actually follow NDSU's recruiting process, you would know by now that the Bison beat a lot of decent G5 schools (and occasionally, a P5 school) for recruits because those young men would prefer to compete for a National Championship than playing for a possible exhibition game at year's end. If NDSU doesn't rise to the level of a Boise State (whose luster has diminished quite a bit recently) right away, the recruits they end up with could very possibly be not as talented as the groups they have been getting about for the past five years. Imagine NDSU moving up to a G5 conference, not being successful right away and this causes the opportunity for SDSU to end up getting the type of recruits that NDSU gets now. Then imagine NDSU schedules SDSU (to be Bowl eligible) and loses because of having inferior talent. Then imagine the F'Hawkers worshipping the turning worm.
Hail the BISON!!!
Day 1 NDSU turns FBS.
NDSU grabs top 3-4 Recruits from UNI, SDSU, und, usd if they have any.
NDSU would then Recruit Minneapolis even harder and Wisconsin. Tons of kids that goto MAC or MWC or other D1 schools that wouldn't come to NDSU now.
NDSU with 22 more full rides... You're god dam right NDSU can be a better team that what it has been!!
COME ON.. BELIEVE IN SOMETHING HIGHER FOR ONCE!!
NDSU TO FBS. HAVEN'T WE WON ENOUGH?
"Enjoy the season."
I suck at the internet, otherwise I would put up a meme of Mike Tice.
I'm sure someone will do it for me.
Dang! I wish i could go this weekednd. Seats still available on the 40 yard line.
I might wait until the unclaimed season tickets are released next week if we aren't playing SDSU. Lots of tickets way better than what I could find on Sunday afternoon
It's OK to not be OK.
