  • Northern Iowa: Mid Major and Rising



    A neat article from the state to the west...and north.
    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

    Nice article. Wonder about this quote - "That kind of success opened up the coffers, as Glas put it, and made it possible to raise $26 million – roughly half the annual athletic budget – at a former D-II school that’s third fiddle in its home state."

    We wish. Could be it meant to say roughly double the budget?

      It meant to say double the athletic budget, I'm almost positive.

        I think it was meant to be "roughly half of the general operating budget" which is about $60 million yearly from the state legislature. $26 million is more than three times our athletic budget of about $8 million.

          It's nice to get this kind of coverage. I hope folks thank the writer for his piece.

            That may be the case, but in the article it states:

            2004-05 athletic budget: $13 million

            That may be the base in which he meant to state that it was double the yearly athletic budget.

              Scroll down to Univ of Northern Iowa
              Sure enough, UNI has an operating athletic budget of $13 million

                That guard from SDSU they quote in the article must have really liked the McLeod Center. He sure found the hoops to his liking. He had me a bit nervous through most of the 2nd half. If he'd hit a couple more threes it may have got real interesting down the stretch on Friday night.

                  What did you all think of Andy #22 for SDSU? I had the opportunity to see him play here in Columbus againest Kent State. He had 16 points in two or three minutes then went to the bench.
