That’s . . . interesting.

If they leave, then the Big 10 will have 10 teams again. Of course, they aren’t leaving, but still . . .

Now, UND draws my ire for other reasons, most of them involving beating the IUP teams in D-II playoff action. I do applaud them for taking action on the nickname front, though – not easily giving in if you decided that it’s not wrong to do something earns some respect in my book – the last thing you want to do is the wishy-washy stuff IUP did before the NCAA told them to drop the name – I’d rather have seen IUP change their name years ago than develop the bizarre solutions they did.
