    It is pretty interesting to hear people talk about all these budget issues about going FBS. Go look at Sammy or Tarleton’s budgets. $10M less than ours and over 75% of each comes from student fees and institutional support.

    Both with less than 10% of the ticket sales revenue of NDSU.
    Mountain West, hope for the best.

    And yet here we are. What does that tell you? It tells me that our administration has not attempted to show our value to anyone. They are reactive not proactive. Reactive=fired.

    The guy doesn’t even say who told him. Anyone can tweet anything saying they were told something lol

    If NDSU couldn’t afford FBS, why wouldn’t they just come out and say it? Great fundraising opportunity and it would force people to put away the pitchforks.

    At the end of the day NDSU needs to get its student fees and institutional support to be in line with its peers. We’d have a mid-MW budget year 1 if they got that figured out.

    I am being told the Charlize Theron has always had a massive crush on me and wants to have my babies.

    What? I thought HerdBot pledged $35 million toward FBS/NIL just yesterday. Can't afford FBS, my ass.

    Somebody needs to tweet out HerdBot's post with his pledge.

    Edit: HerdBot only pledged $25 million. Cheapass.
    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.

    Nobody's getting fired for NDSU not moving up...in fact, the State Board will probably give Cook and Larsen raises and extensions....

    Highly unlikely that students will vote to give more to athletics, and the institution is losing money every year, including this one...there's no money to add to athletics.
