Boom. Also, there's a fine line between lobbying for membership and droning on and on and on about it.


If he is lobbying for membership, he probably should be lobbying to the brass of the MVC, not message board posters.[/quote]
He's been banned by NDSU's athletic department. He is a cancer that NDSU distances itself from at every chance.

That's not a lie. That is straight from people very, very, well connected at NDSU that I know.[/quote]No one believes you.

are you clinically insane?? I am not banned from anything, I played there, I graduated there, I am currently a booster. this type of slanderous BS is beyond ridiculous and I would hope a moderator will do something about it.

I have not attacked 1 person on this board, I have brought facts and information, its a shame that you cant cordially exchange message on a board with that uniftw. seek help[/quote]
I'll wait for your e-mail threatening a lawsuit. I've gotten one from you before - where you stole my e-mail from a form for where you work. That is the only way you'd have gotten it. A form that didn't go to your desk.

You then threatened me with a lawsuit over nothing.

You cry on every board about this type of thing. Threaten suits, cry about slander and libel, and never use them correctly. Move on with your life. NDSU isn't getting in.

I now think the Valley should invite NDSU so Evansville fans can spend the next 20 years lamenting this board only being a pissing match between UNI and NDSU.

Outer Space. Where one has the perspective to see the big picture.

True - but everything is so far away that no real focus is possible

Focusing on that grain of sand 8 inches underground isn't helping anyone.

Does anyone know if Valpo of any other school is having a meeting like Murray State's tomorrow?

Would a private school have to announce such a meeting?

Private schools don't have to announce dick. State schools have to follow state FOI guidelines. That includes posting notices of BOR meetings. Valpo doesn't have to say a damn word until they announce it

Then prove it. Here's a list of basketball budgets for expansion candidates:

134) University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee 2,877,237
143) Valparaiso University 2,666,213
157) Wright State University-Main Campus 2,445,427
176) University of Illinois at Chicago 2,231,609
177) Murray State University 2,218,712
216) University of Missouri-Kansas City 1,815,762
274) South Dakota State University 1,443,001
278) North Dakota State University-Main Campus 1,417,450

That's pathetic. Their coach they have now is paid $190k and his only experience is being a former NDSU assistant. UIC has Steve McClain, former Wyoming coach and Indiana assistant, and pays him $375k. UWM has LaVall Jordan, former Butler, Iowa and Michigan assistant, and pays him $350k.

NDSU can apply later when they decide their head basketball coach is worth more than their football coordinators. Adding them now makes zero sense because every dollar of revenue the athletic department generates is diverted to football. Their greatest player is Lawrence Alexander, a kid from Peoria who all Valley schools passed on (which is in itself a crime but illustrates how flukish their modest recent success has been).
