It's insane.
But so is the volume of gopher fans who are preoccupied with NDSU.
I visit the college football sub of reddit.com on a daily basis. It was one of the stories near the top of the page there. **** me for thinking people might find it interesting https://www.reddit.com/r/cfb
North Dakota State is cutting off outlets from covering Bison athletics unless they’ve paid a media rights ransom, according to local Fargo newspaper The Forum.

Udder U getting a little arrogant.
FIFY, 19.

"Moo U getting udderly arrogant." would be the pun you want to play.
FARGO—Dear North Dakota State University Athletic Department Overlords:
It is with great humility and respect I write this column. I must beg forgiveness that I did not seek written permission 24 hours in advance for doing so. It is my sincerest hope you see fit in your unprecedented greatness to accept my apology.
If necessary, I shall pay the penance outlined in your updated media coverage guidelines. If you'd be so kind as to leave Mr. Klieman's shoes outside his office, I shall polish them promptly.
But I thought it urgent to write you about those new media rules, which restrict the way some outlets can report from your games. There are those who say the rules put unnecessary restrictions on outlets that don't own the broadcast rights. There are those who say limiting what reporters can write on Twitter during your games is tyrannical. There are those who argue the ones hurt most by the restrictions will be your fans, who will have less information available to them.

I was listening to Reusse on Saturday Morning Sports Talk. He was talking with someone from WDAY....I'm guessing the same guy. Both shaking their heads.
Good column....too bad no one here will read it.
+19. McFeely isn't afraid to step on toes. The more people he pisses off, the better he likes it. Especially when he's right.
I really can't believe we have gone this long in this thread without a ndsu bobo spouting off. Those 7 people must be busy at Mt. Rushmore or something.
2010 . . . The last time MN finished with a better Sagarin (DI) rating than ndsu.
There, are you happy? Just giving you what you wanted, ha-ha. Seriously, poor execution by NDSU media folks on this one.
Dan barreiro was ripping them on kfan
College broadcasts have a similar disclaimer...At the end of every Viking's game you'll hear the announcers say, ""Any other use of this telecast or any pictures, descriptions, or accounts of the game without the NFL's consent is prohibited." That's just one reason you should never talk about the Vikings and instead just focus on the Gophers.
