This. It's not the court's job to police college sports in such a way that fans and schools may want.

Right. What I meant, and this was just spitballing, is that in theory, we could see the P4 playing a post-season tournament. The G6 playing in bowl games, and the FCS and all lower levels also playing in their existing tournaments.

I remember the Minneapple campaign. It was a parody of a famous New Yorker cover. But that has nothing to do with people today referring to the state as Minny. Literally the first person I ever heard say that was Barry Melrose on an NHL broadcast. It's an absolute red flag that someone is not...

Nobody from here would EVER refer to this state as "Minny." This is some ridiculous term started by Canadian hockey commentators.

They get $50mm a year NOW. Let's see what happens when most of their quality opponents decide they aren't worth the hassle.

HEAD! PANTS! NOW!

Best not to feed the troll. We've had enough of the thinly veiled to outright bigotry around here the last few days.

I don't think they can. I thought there was some kind of grant of rights deal that if they join a conference for football, it has to be the ACC through a certain year.

The other thing is a big draw for NDSU football has always been the tailgate party. Once you get to late November and December in Fargo, it gets pretty miserable.

I hadn't seen this. He can be kind of annoying, but I've really enjoyed most of his 100 days content - getting to see different parts of stadiums and arenas. Bunch of jerks.

I hadn't heard anything about Ole Miss players opting out. Unlike the other schools, the rumor was that they weren't really all that upset about Kiffin leaving and not coaching the playoff game.

We also only had 9 conferences this year, which is weird.

Let them end their ACC relationship. I would LOVE to see ND go full independent again, only to have everyone else say: "Yeah, we're not going to schedule you anymore. We have conference games to play, and then we'll pad the NC schedule with cupcakes. Best of luck!" No decent matchups means no...

They get notoriety among their peers. One of the background stories behind the SMU Pony Express scandal, was that you had all these big time boosters in Texas business circles bragging about UT, A&M, Arkansas etc. The wealthy SMU alums decided they were going to do the same, and build a...

Why would people love it more if NIL actually meant NIL? Many of us have accepted for years that big time programs pay big time money for players. The difference is it's just out in the open now. I'd prefer it all just be out on the table than in the shadows. I'd prefer even more if we had a...

Was Missouri State largely picked because of location? I honestly don't know that much about their program compared to some of the others. I did just watch a piece on Sacramento State. A year ago they were poised to move up to FBS - and then their waiver to do so with no conference invite got...

The top five ranked conference champions got auto bids. That included JMU and Tulane. I love how this is so upsetting to people.

Maroon doesn't understand what division 1 means. I actually just watched the last five minutes of the NDSU-ISU game on YouTube. Pretty exciting. One thing they did keep mentioning is there were 10,000 at the game. That's only about half full. Did the game really draw that poorly? I know NDSU...

I think when the 5-7 teams choose not to accept, in some cases they've sent the kids home already and don't want to call them back.

That would be a good game too.
