    The gift is incredible and crazy. He should do a book deal if he hasn't already. There very lucrative. More for SU.

    His counterpart at UND Mark Kennedy the last 5 years had 2 pretty successful little scores. Probably got a nice little check while at UND for his book in 2017.

    Then at Colorado another nice little buyout check. Doubt he'll leave his money to UND.

    Like Jules said to Ringo put it in your pocket it's yours.

    These are out again, and I was curious about ETSU after some Lakes-directed smack I saw on their board. Again, these are .org (not .com) which means they can’t be bought and sold. Number to right is national rank.

    I’m sure these are all fine schools, but what you can read into the number is a measure of grant success and PhD production.

    MSU, 174 (178)
    UM, 183 (182)
    SIU, 199
    NDSU, 205 (210)
    SDSU, 239 (248)
    UND, 255 (257)
    USD, 277 (285)
    JMU, 310
    ETSU, 324
    SHU, 343

    Number in () is previous national ranking (20-21)
    SD schools with the steepest (+) slope of the 4 Dakotas

    You can if you have a subscription. Like I said about .coms ...

    NDSU is on par or better than several notable MAC and MWC schools

    Subscription not required for that link. Just dismiss the nag ...

    The link compares any two schools from the WSJ/Times rankings for undergrad experience. The poster you reference on the ETSU board seemed to be talking about Doctoral programs comparison, which is not covered in the WSJ data.

    That poster also said ETSU alines better with UND. Read into that what you will.
    I myself chuckled when I read that.
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    Their board is frustratingly inactive and they really have no smack game as far as I can tell. Guessing they are not yet in the "Just Happy To Be Here" phase but rather still in the "Damn SHOCKED To Be Here" phase.

    Assuming things play out per Expectation this weekend it's going to be quite different around here next week. CAS' affinity for canines notwithstanding there will be some despicable mutts sniffing around come Saturday night...

    It appears said poster is technically correct

    It is surprisingly dead over there, but using Bisonville as a metric isn't probably all that fair

    They either need a "Politics" board or some FBS talk. It would liven it right up.
    The weather in Fargo keeps the undesirables out.....
