The Sicatoka

Neither the Griz nor the Bobcats are at 16. Each is at 15.

I know this is crazy-talk, but end the minimum sports requirements and play what your demographics have interest in and will pay to support.

Womens triathlon. Beach volleyball <- that was for you @SiouxVolley, RIP (NCAA does not sponsor mens triathlon or mens beach.)

Random factoid: Board administrators and moderators can see email addresses. That is all.

One year with Mal erases twenty plus running his own teams?

Hutter? But yes, glad the Brewster era is over.

There is wisdom in these words.

Oldest. Player. Excuse. Ever. Heck, I've used it, until the coach showed me my self-perceived strengths weren't. Was him setting me straight mental abuse?

The player had two unremarkable years (about 80 minutes total) at ASU before going to UND and UND got more of the unremarkable same. Seems like the coaches should've kept looking. <-- I'm agreeing with you, aren't I?

But @iramurphy this person may have a point: The coaches he (assume it's a he) questions did bring in a portal (grad student) who shot just 21% overall, just 10% conference, for UND. They must be bad talent evaluators to bring such a weak, ineffective fourth-year. But that student-athlete's parents must be elated that 10% conf FG shooting got a free year of college. To me that seems like a terrible recruitment miss; I hope it didn't bring other baggage.

Predicting staff changes on losing squads in college athletics seems pretty safe. Predicting portal entries these days is predicting the sun will rise in the east. I predict Jacobson is an upgrade.

If you didn't prepare for the enrollment cliff of 2026 ...
