FBS move fans. Here's a good read

[56BISON73]

Chea, but if we, the college football message board fans, keep talking about it and wish for it every night it will come true. It just has to!

Anyone remember all of the Big Sky talk when NDSU was moving up? That worked pretty well, huh?

At least we learned that it's the university presidents and ADs that make the decisions regarding expansion, not the message board fans.

Yeah and if they dont invite us they are just scared of us and dont want the competition. etc etc etc

In this discussion, why is it generally assumed that the other sports like basketball have to also move? Why is it impossible to imagine the Summit League teams remaining in that conference with the coaches salaries not changing. IF the football program moves up, wouldn't affiliate membership into an existing FBS League (MAC, MWC, Sunbelt, etc...) seem more economically feasible?

Just look 70 miles north. Hakstol gets paid according to the peers in his sport, whereas all the other coaches up there are paid according to Big Sky levels.

Geography does not seem to be as big a hurdle for football as it is in other sports. As it is now, the only conference road games using a bus for football are down in South Dakota. Flying to Laramie, Muncie, or Statesboro would be similar to flying to Terre Haute or Youngstown.

With the SHAC project getting the go-ahead and Oral Roberts coming back, the Summit League seems like a good fit for the other sports to remain in. Other than basketball, does any significant percentage of Bison fans care who the volleyball, soccer, golf, track, etc... teams compete against? The Summit provides a good, stable home for the teams currently in it.

This discussion should only pertain to the football program at this time. No need to attach the others unless it is absolutely necessary to move all of the teams to the FBS conference. If that is the case, then this move up is NOT happening for 15+years minimum.

The Summit league is basically a bunch of FCS level schools. Why would the lets go FBS now lovers want only football to move to bigger and better things and leave the rest of the sports behind. If the football team moved to the MAC or the MWC why would we want the others to be left behind by not bringing them along. Don't the FBS now lovers think that what is good for football is good for all the schools sports??????? After all, if it's good for football it must be equally as good for the other athletics to go to a MAC or MWC, why not make NDSU a super power in all sports.

Next time I see you giving a reach around and kissing some former players ass at tailgate I will remind you and them that you think they are playing JV ball. Should be interesting.

Well, in theory we can win the national championship and be the best in the country in the Summit. NDSU cannot do that in football.

i dont go to ndsu games until they are fbs those former athletes like warren wish we were fbs just ask them

[devin45k]

Not going to NDSU games won't make us go FBS any faster lol

I will ask them what they think of people who think they play JV ball. I will then direct them to you. Which I will do right in front of you. Just so there is no misinterpretation. We will see if you have the nuts to talk that shit to players face. As a matter of fact I hope some of the older players are around for this also.

[MNLonghorn10]

What I said was that nobody outside of the fans of those schools watches, I never said anything about how many people watch. Do you really think that if we were FBS next year and we were playing ISU blue and the game was on Fox that we are going to get the same number of viewers that Ohio St and Michigan will have. Or do you think that the fans of other teams who are playing are going to say fuck watching my team, NDSU is on I'm gonna watch that instead.

Isub is now fbs?
