Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

Both MSU-Mankato and Augustana had 8-27 records in conference play from 2003 to 2007. Should they have been relegated to Division III due to their incompetences as football programs?

Mankato & Augie the original bottom feeders that got left behind by the big boys and only got better after stepping into a lesser conference

Now, that' doing some research. I'm not opposed to the Jimmies, I hope they become a competent D2 program.

I agree but Jamestown has no hope in my opinion. In the portal era, they’re going to lose a lot of talent. Rinse and repeat every year but they didn’t get blown out will be their new motto.

I was impressed with Coach Mistro with his culture building talk on NSIC weekly...Or he's a snake oil salesman. Time will tell. He said then he already had 5 commits that had offers from other D2 programs.

You really think the better football players at Jamestown will stay after 1-10 season?

It's difficult to gauge Jamestown U. success or lack uf success until at least 3 more recruiting cycles. Personally, I think they have a steep uphill climb to success.

Disappointing loss this weekend but we have been competitive every game, our scores look better than the other bottom feeders. Speaking of bottom feeders Dakota State is 4-2, take notice NSIC, just a matter of time before we welcome the Trojans!

Surely you wouldn't compare just one sport though to judge an entire athletic department? Wasn't that your argument days, weeks, months ago?

Well, maybe you haven't noticed yet, but we don't exactly have any Division II metrics yet for Jamestown in men's and women's basketball, baseball, etc. That leaves only the fall sports, like football.

It's weird to say this - but Jamestown Volleyball was a massive disappointment, and football was a surprise.

I'd expected volleyball to win 5-6 conference games and football to win none.

That's not exactly a high bar to clear though.

It's called a comparison....

So what's all this chatter about Crookston Football for?

Correct.

Jamestown brings nothing to this conference, they can take Crookston with them back to NAIA
