I find it interesting & I like that NIU is even INCLUDED in college football articles about rebuilding or anything positive.

Oh how far we have come.

I think NIU's best hope is to get Root out there as soon as possible. He has the tools needed that I don't think anyone else on the roster really possesses.

I think you're an idiot.

Only think?????

I know he is an idiot.

My only hope is that it is a true open competition. If NIU has big aspirations for its football program, the best players should play, I hope we can agree on that.

lol no NIU has won 10+ games the last 4 years cause they make sure the good players are on the bench

2 things to take from this...NIU is being included with Boise State..a good thing...and NIU is used multiple times...with the advent of Twitter and limited characters most everyone is using NIU know rather than N. Illinois, Northern Illinois, etc.

Yes NIU is used multiple times...after they corrected it from this mornings version which repeatedly said UNI...


But yes this is a great article for us.

Great article other than he calls us UNI several times!

...and we still don't need a name change?

That would only cause them to call DeKalb University "NIU."

Would we then be the "Flying Ears of Corn" and not the Huskies?

Would our colors then be "Yellow & Green"?

"DKU"! "DKU"!......

Took them long enough and nothing like giving the program in Cedar Falls free publicity

...or maybe the new DeKalb school would steal a page from the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. "The university of Chicago/Illinois at Dekalb."
