The Sicatoka

When the GF newspaper guys are willing to make that statement my advice to Muss is: don't buy green bananas.

UND does what UNC did last weekend: give one away one the road. Davis at home scores late due to UND mismanagement, wins by four. (I'll guess the mismanagement to be clock management related, not that that is overtly predictable with this 'coaching' regime.)

If UND and the Summit are such a match made in heaven, where are: - the MVFC invite - the Summit invite - the fiscal analyses showing $(Summit + MVFC) > $(Big Sky) As The Bard said, "Me thinks thou doth protest too much" when it comes to the droning on by Summit fans at this time. As SiouxVolley points out, the Summit is dangerously, precariously, close to losing its autobids in key sports (i.e. MBB). All this noise from the SDSU board, and from the NDSU fans here, comes across to me as the classic marketing/sales technique called "herd mentality" (with the association to NDSU's mascot being a coincidence). "Herd mentality" sales are based claiming "everyone else is doing it" or "get in now before everyone else". Get into WHAT exactly? A conference that didn't take in UND Baseball? An alignment that would've (and still would) put UND FB out in the cold? To me the Summit would have to approach UND with a package that makes it clearly stronger than what UND has today in the Big Sky ... and I don't see that happening because the Summit can't produce that.

Nary a better summary of this ever written.

To Cratter's point, that's why I keep saying "complete reboot". UND 2.0

It can only be used one weekend per year, and this was it. Heck, NDSU didn't sell out Fargodome this weekend (18076 and they had over 19000 at their homecoming). Deer opener is a defacto holiday weekend in this region. Schools would be smart to schedule road games deer opener weekend.

UND won Saturday despite their coaching. The blocked FG going the other way because UND didn't play to the whistle shows me a team that has not been coached up. UND won, because Northern Colorado gave the game away with a late fumble.

I knew Colorado College was a little ... different ... but this you have to read for yourself: http://denver.cbslocal.com/2013/11/08/colorado-college-job-application-features-the-word-queer/ So which hockey team are they sending to play in Grand Forks: Mens, Womens, Transgendered, or Queer?

Two words for you Volley: Deer Opener.

And they fumble. Two bad teams.

Defensive off sides for first down for them.

And his second pick today.

No coaching.

Hapless called. They are looking to schedule these two.

Quite possibly.

Students? There are no students here today.

I've received replies from Mr. Faison.

I've emailed Mr. Faison. I did after the original debacle: Sioux Falls. I did after this year's Montana debacle. (I said fire and use the bye week to bring in an interim head coach.) Heck, I've said it to Tim O'Keefe in person! I'm not sure what else to say.

I'm not a soothsayer. I'm a guy looking for the return on the investment we've made. And I'm still looking.

The way it looked for a while on Saturday I thought we'd traded a team for a set of pylons.

Not like Blais needs this info but ... - If UND is at even strength they will try to enter the zone with a two-man game on the right wing between the dot and the boards. - If UND is up a man they will try to enter the zone between dead center and the left wing dot, and expect that the LD will be bringing it up the middle. Additional note: if it's 4x4 play UND will play like they are down a man.

Dear Mr. Faison, Whatever magic you used to find a WVB coach, please use it again to find a FB coach.

After UND loses to UNC at the Alerus this coming Saturday, the announcement has to be made. Why? UND has a bye week the last week of the regular season. That's a two week search head start on everyone else. UND 2.0

Tick.
