    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    This has been totally predictable. When they announced paying players this was baked in! Pandora's box has been opened and to everyone's dismay it's very deep I suggest be prepared for many years of chaos.

    It's OK to not be OK.

    Right. I was both, and that was 20 years ago.

    I was able to take classes when I worked for U of Mo and NDSU. Of course as an employee I had to work full time and then could only take a limited amount of hrs. Sounds like that would work. Of course when you run out of eligibility, tuition’s on you. Wanna be an employee, you have to act like an employee.
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    If they unionize then the conferences can negotiate work rules with them instead everyone being a free agent every year. If you hate the portal and want more roster stability unionization gets you closer to that.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Well yeah but unfortunately just by saying the word “union” they cause 40% of the US to lose their minds.
