UND-FB-FAN

@UNDBIZ Please add another commitment to UND football: S Brady Lee, Aquinas High School, La Crosse, WI. 6’2” 195 lbs. offers from NDSU and SDSU. https://www.hudl.com/profile/19572857/Brady-Lee

Yes. Continue to contribute to collective (1883 Sports) and 701 Award (UND internal NIL). Every little bit helps. https://1883collective.com https://undalumni.org/giving-impact/701-award.html

UND should win the national championship, but there’s a reason they play the games. Anything can happen in the playoffs.

Coming soon it sounds like …

This is the most likely scenario.

Yeah and NDSU is still basically D2. G5 vs P4 gap remains just that wide. Difference is NDSU paid $20M just to paint an illusion whereas other top FCS teams are being strategic while still being able to compete for real championships in January. What pathetic fragile egos in Fargo …

The more time goes on the more it seems Chavez is a fool What does it take to get a competent AD running the show for UND? Local “bleeds green” hire? No more outside hires like Faison and Chaves?

wtf is a hockey school? That model doesn’t exist anywhere in division one in the country other than, supposedly, Grand Forks, ND … maybe that’s why UND athletics is so god damn amateur

Pathetic. Hard to get behind UND basketball if they can’t even keep one kid… they need to invest in Greyson for one more year and let him chase $ after one more season with UND

All while the town (GF) and college (UND) continues to support more and more students (increasing enrollment) and more and more infrastructure … nice try Bison “ the troll” Dan … and Fargo ain’t a college town either, more like a crime destination dumpster fire …

Yesterday’s news:

If appreciable TV revenue becomes a part of the deal, then the MAC (FBS) would be a step up from the MVFC and UND should pursue. The relationship already in place with some of the schools via hockey should be entertained. Otherwise, from an on the field perspective, I agree; the MAC is essentially the same if not worse than the MVFC.

Paying over $4 million for the same setup (but marketed better resolution) is pretty generic and lazy in my opinion. If Daktronics or LucentHD, or whoever, gets the contract, they *should* be working with the city and Alerus Center staff (and UND) to enhance the atmosphere, not replicate it. Ribbon boards above the suites and/or covering more of the tin with video boards is a great start. Daktronics or LucentHD won’t be able to change the lack of natural light issue, but a contractor that can address that would be priceless. More natural light in the Alerus Center would be phenomenal for the atmosphere in my opinion …

Correct

Okay, some blame to go around (as has happened in the past with Alerus Center), but will this contract cancellation and open bid process really change the outcome in any meaningful positive way? Unfortunately, likely only will affect it in a negative way, but that is now the path we’re going down… and sure, laws are laws, albeit some ambiguity here. Hopefully the process is expedited and Daktronics is still appropriately awarded the contract and the opportunity to actually improve the situation inside the Alerus Center …
