If all of that happened within 10 years, it would be mind blowing. The thing is, most of those things are already set in motion in one form or another so it’s possible.

No idea. I would think so. But I think the link will just bring you to a website version. You don’t need the app.

As mentioned should be able to watch that on the website without having to have an account. But for those adamant to not visit TikTok in any way here is the instagram posting of the same: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DRAEvZqk ... NmZnVuaQ==

It's just Tessman's vision of the future of the Southern part of the campus and what it may look like, including improvements to the stadium, Field House, tennis and golf center, new hotel, and Museum of the Rockies, etc. No timeline or new details, other than he mentioned the possibility of a soccer field.

Bobcat athletics is a business to the coaches, school leadership, and players. It's time the fans treat Bobcat athletics as a business too.

I would hope we get a soccer field and maybe a softball field. Seems weird that we are the only school in the big sky without women's soccer and softball.

I would love for soccer and softball to be added. A college softball field on campus would be dope.


Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

I hope so badly that Bobcat Stadium gets upgraded first because for some reason every time I see the stadium i just keep envisioning how much better it could be.

I'm assuming our Male to Female ratio is still pretty high compared to most other Big Sky campuses. Certainly UM's. That can have Title IX ramifications for adding additional women's athletics.

Yeah MSU would have to follow the Title IX rules for the equal participation.
Wonder if LAX or Men's Hockey could become scholarship sports if we did add one or both.

A fun example of a softball stadium is Jane Sanders Stadium in Eugene.
$16m of the $17m was donated, but it's a good example of a decent sized (1,500 seats), relatively "low" cost facility with footprint constraints.

Yeah from what I've heard the reason MSU Billings can't really bring back its football program is because they have the opposite problem. A very high female enrollment ratio, which makes it really tough to add so many male scholarships without having to significantly expand women's programs across multiple other sports.

Not much new details in this piece, but Leon does say that he wants to expand the stadium to at least 25,000 SEATS, not just capacity (i.e., SRO and seats). That's at around the 2:05 mark.

I have heard from staff that mens golf would have a good chance if women’s soccer gets a team.
