    Your terms are acceptable. They will be enacted at my leisure and pleasure.
  2. The Sicatoka
    You dredged up a thread idle for 7.5 years.
  3. The Sicatoka
    If only the throws were all that mattered in what the position demands.
  4. The Sicatoka
    Again, the ball to Kupfer, I don't see any of the other options making that throw. Zip it and it gets knocked away. It was perfectly at the pylon where only 6'3" Nick Kupfer could get it.

    New like a 1975 Pacer to someone used to driving a 2004 Impala ...
  6. The Sicatoka
    Those two statements are contradictory.
  7. The Sicatoka
    Anything short of low-earth orbit is unacceptable ... at least to some.

    They seriously looked at Hyslop as a retrofit and repurpose a while back (how I learned of asbestos issues). If the decision was made to brownfield the site there's a reason.

    Tai was run out there so Belquist and Wilson could stay on the sidelines after they were dinged. It's one of four games he can appear in with no impact on redshirt status. < yawn > Freund's offense is not a "big arm" offense, it's a game manager's offense. (Never forget: Trent Dilfer has a SB ring; Dan Marino does not.) When a UND WR is running 30+ yards downfield and is open it's blown coverage, not design. The "double vision" backfield (Romfo twins) was to get that power game offense on film; let 'em stew. Running Feeney and Romfo out was to keep wear off Tommy and to get those two on film. How many teams can say their #1, #2, #3, and last season's #2, each had at least one rushing TD in a game.

    Folks don't think Kaminsky was recruited with full knowledge of what the path (redshirt) would likely be. He was recruited by a former QB for that guy's offense (Freund) and his dad is a coach. He surely understands he needs time for mental (learn the offense) and physical development.

    The play to set up the third TD, to Kupfer (and I'm still not sure it wasn't a TD): Schuster never gets credit for passes that well thrown (location and placement).
  13. The Sicatoka
    Glad to see he's already adapting to the new culture.

    Hyslop has more asbestos than a WWII battleship engine room. And the pool is leaking. Walsh was in rough shape in the late 1980s. (I was an RA there for more than a day we'll say; I saw parts or Walsh that still give me nightmares.) Bek and Hancock were outdated. Squires was vintage between the east and west halves of Walsh. It was showing age in the late 1980s also. West and McVey needed placing. About all of housing, kids today do not want stucco walls and asbestos tile floors. Memorial Stadium should've been condemned and thankfully has come down for MVI, which ushers in MVII and Albrecht Field. And pick your other eyesore: married housing west of West; Strinden Center; Conference Center. All needed a date with a D9 and got it. I'm sure some of the decisions are based on compressions, footings, and water table. Many building that have come down were vintage 1960s and early 1970s when construction technique was lacking and energy efficiency was unheard of. I'm not sure what to say about the CF Auditorium beyond replace the (dated) red velvet or replace the facility. Merrifield and Twamley are getting renovated. UND had half a billion, yes, $500,000,000.00, in deferred maintenance on the books when Ed Schafer arrived. He went with reality and not nostalgia. Kennedy finished the task. University Ave looks different today to me. Different but better.

    I moved a bunch of "facilities" conversation from here to the "Facilities Master Plan" thread (where it belonged).
  16. The Sicatoka
    The cliff is real. I'm not seeing anything in that that isn't reality (aside from UND's enrollment in the 1980s).
  17. The Sicatoka
    I assume you can read, so, go and read it.
  18. The Sicatoka
    There's a pulse ...

    No Rodgers in GB; no D Cook in MIN; Bears gonna Bears. I picked the Honolulu Blue Cats in August.

    Our track record with what should be overmatched teams from Sioux Falls, SD, isn't great ... looking at you Chris Mussman.

    Whew! Thanks for clearing that up. I'd hate for someone to have ... bumped or spiked ... your beer.
