Lack of ISUr conversation

I doubt UNI will go anywhere, In my experiences with their new president he is more likely to cut athletic spending then boost it. I am no saying he is going to cut athletic spending just that I don't see him adding to it.

Ruud has already come out publicly voicing strong support for UNI athletics. And our AD has raved about him.

Sorry, when I said UNI I meant UNI. I guess I'm dislexic. Anyways, I think that rivalry would be a good way for the MAC to increase it's impact in the Chicago area. You do make a good argument regarding stadium size though. What you say about UMass is probably about the same situation we're in. I'm definitely going to read those articles. Good insight from a clearly educated person on college football. I am more of a basketball guy myself, and as I mentioned I am still a student so I imagine I have a lot to learn about conference realignment. The one thing that I thing will always put a damper on school spirit here is the fact that, as I mentioned before, ISU is the second choice for a lot of students. Obviously, U of I will always be the best public school in the state and their athletics are very set being the B1G and all that. I just hope the excitement surrounding our athletic department continues to grow and sticks around for a long time.[/quote]

I swear to God I wrote N.I.U. When I go to edit it I type N.I.U. and it changes it to UNI. wtf?

We just lost the best quarterback in school history, and FCS history, but we have a stud QB transfer from Iowa St. He was the one that beat Ok St. while throwing for over 300 yards and I think 3 TDs last year while their starter was injured and from what I hear he is gonna make us a force to be reckoned with.

LMAO!!!

Sorry when I said, FCS history I meant to say "one of the best". My mistake.
