    Pac-12 to decide whether to expand within a couple weeks

    What if part of the alliance is to limit the number of teams the SEC gets in a new 12 team playoff? Something like limiting 3 teams per conference for the play-offs.

    Why do people want ISU Baseball back so much?

    I think a new facility for wrestling, gymnastics and volleyball, depending on the size of the arena would be a cheaper option than a new facility for ice hockey. Similar to Wisconsin with the Kohl Center and the Field House.

    Why do people want ISU Baseball back so much?

    NCHC would be a good fit but not sure they would take a new team as it would make it a 9 team conference. If ASU finally gets a new rink built there is a chance they could be added and the conference could be looking for #10. Denver Colorado College Omaha NoDak Duluth St. Cloud St. Miami...

    ISU could follow Long Island U, and boot strap a hockey team on a few months notice. LIU have a built in advantage including multiple rinks nearby such as; Nassau Coliseum, and the Islanders practice rink. Plus they already had a women's team...

    Why do people want ISU Baseball back so much?

    I went to several games the year they killed the program, but I had a good friend on the team. It was a short walk from Storms and for some reason it didn't cost a dime to get in.

    New $250 Mil Multi-Use Development Planned for Grimes

    They must not know about the National Sports Center (NSC) in Blaine, MN which is 600 + acre. https://www.nscsports.org/ It does look like it will have more fields than the NSC. I am guessing the golf course at the NSC takes up a lot of acres.

    Ranking Ski Resorts

    As someone who has lived in NW Montana for many years now, I enjoy skiing Whitefish Mountain. However over the holidays when I want to avoid crowds I head to Blacktail Mountain in Lakeside MT.
