It's all about money when you're a school struggling financially. Going to Pitt and WVU will be nice because they are easy drives. And you get paid for playing there ? No brainer. Instead of playing in some tournament in Utah.

My statement is a statement of my opinion, and therefore, it is true by definition!  Because you enjoy seeing YSU get the sh** kicked out of our players in miss matches more than I do, my opinion is NOT "false"?  Maybe you could say "IMO, I look at this differently", not YOUR STATEMENT IS FALSE."   

AS I remember, in the first 2 years of playing BIG (formally known as the Big 10) competition, we lost the best player on our team for the entire season early in the game.  Sacrificed for the financial gain of the administration.
Everybody would like to win one of those games, but the truth is, we are sacrificing  hard working young men for cash.  If you think the university is doing it because it will help recruiting, or on the off chance we actually win one, you are (IMO) pretty damn naive!

Lol, do you pay attention ? Every non power 5 school does it. We are not Ohio State who produces millions and millions in revenue. Ever see the 500 people in attendance at our games ? That doesn't make money. We have to do what we have to do. Btw, Pitt sucks in basketball, we may beat them.

Yes, I pay some attention, and you are wrong, not EVERYBODY does:
NDSU 2018 Schedule
Cal Poly
North Alabama
Delaware (Homecoming)
South Dakota State (Dakota Marker)
Northern Iowa
Western Illinois
Illinois State
South Dakota
Youngstown State (Harvest Bowl)
Missouri State
Southern Illinois
Besides, didn't your parents ever tell you "if everybody else jumps off a cliff, are you going to jump also?" If it's a bad idea but "everybody" is doing it, then we should too?
You don't think most prostitutes in Youngstown don't need the damn money?  You think they do it for the love of sex?  They do it because they NEED THE MONEY.  You know what that makes what they do?  PROSTITUTION!  Same as YSU.  If YSU is driven by revenue only that why track? why golf, why baseball/softball, why the HELL bowling?  If the investment doesn't make send and the fans don't support the program, then I'd vote for no scholarships and Pioneer Football League membership rather than university administration sponsored prostitution!

Penguin Nick:
Penguin Nick earlier stated:  go guins, personally you're statement is false.

go guins, you are correct in that my earlier statement should have read:  "I look at this differently"or "I disagree with you" as you have a right to an opinion (no matter how wrong it is  ;D)

As per NDS, no one in the Power 5 wants to play them anymore as they aren't worth the aggravation.
