FARGO — Stats Perform FCS senior editor Craig Haley joined the Bison Media Zone to discuss the Division I Football Championship Subdivision spring season.

Haley and Forum reporters Mike McFeely and Eric Peterson discussed the issues with the spring season and how programs are navigating through the unique circumstances created by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

"I think the season has been worth it," Haley said.

Earlier this week, Illinois State opted out of the Missouri Valley Football Conference spring season for the health and safety of its players with mounting injuries.
