Fargo Moorhead is hockey town. We have more kids playing hockey, have a shit ton of facilities and even host squirt international. The Force substantially outdraw NDSU Basketball because it's huge. It would take a decade to compete with UND but if Quinnipiac can do it, we can. Just bordering Minnesota will give us talent by default

We should do both. The womens scholarships in wrestling would balance for title 9 too. Womens wrestling will lose money and hockey will be a revenue sport
I don't think he means we couldn't put a decent team on the ice. I think he means that we would probably never be like UND. The programs would be very different based on tradition, support, etc.

I'd like to see NDSU get a team at some point if FBS isn't in the cards and/or we aren't going to take basketball more seriously.
