Could the bison do this to other levels? like would the top 5 seniors in the NSIC start for the Bison each year? I assume a guy like Thielen would have made a good xfer?

NCAA D1 Hockey:
60 teams
The most popular sport in THE LAND!
"Oh Canada, our home and native..."
30 affiliated with D1 football (15 FBS and 15 FCS)
30 affiliated with D2, D3, or no football
You're so jealous!
Let's fight for 0.6 seconds or 5 OTs!
Sorry, Gully. There's a frustration that I have with the sense of entitlement that much of our fanbase has and the dagger probably felt like it was pointed at you for the moment. I wasn't specifically addressing your post or you in particular. Again, I'm sorry for firing from the hip and not acknowledging that right away.
It was more of a comment on the constant bitching that exists on BV. Seemingly no matter how good we have it as fans, there's still a large unrelenting contingent of discontent. Frankly, when I see that attitude - meaning the same people always bitching about everything - I just dismiss their concerns. After all, those people will never be pleased. I would rather spend my time on creating successes that will keep the interest of everyone else. I suspect anyone in leadership and with experience in the athletic department does the same.
I wonder what percentage of the posts on this board are negative. I bet it is pretty damn high...even if you don't account for the political board. (Yes, I know this post would be on the negative end of the spectrum...)
Insert something clever here...
All of those things are fine to cause you to lose interest. But it is selfish to say you are losing interest because a 22 year old athlete who gave his heart and soul to NDSU after he decommitted from Missouri State to come to NDSU and then decides He wants to do something that he thinks is best for his life. That you can’t be happy for him and excited to see the next crop of players is absurd.

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.

And on a positive note, the Bison did recruit 2 RB’s in the last class
TK Marshall - 5’ 11” 195
Dominic Gonnella - 5’ 11” 205
Plus local preferred walk-on Nathan Goldade.
And WR Raja Nelson played QB/RB/WR in high school......
Excited to see who steps forward from the RB room!
I don't really understand where this is coming from. I am certainly interested to see the next crop of players and what is absurd is you explaining to me how I feel when you're completely wrong. I have nothing against Cofield and have said that. I'm just saying that players leaving early is one of a few things I mentioned that diminishes my interest overall. It's not a judgement of them, it's a statement of my preferences. But please, continue to explain my preferences to me.
The thought that you have some moral authority to judge how I spend my entertainment dollars is absurd.
