  1. Well lookee there, a press release dated April 26, the actual date he resigned! http://www.fightingsioux.com/sports/mbball...RELEASE_ID=4856
  2. Just wanted that out there on the record.
  3. Suck-up. Mine went to a worthy cause, but you knew that.
  4. http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/s...ta/14429094.htm
  5. There's no release on Fighting Sioux.com either. Why? Glas doesn't official resign from UND until later today (Wednesday). That's what the guys on KVLY said.
  6. Thinking way big-picture and long term, there really isn't great space for new academic buildings on campus. With parking ramps going in soon, returning the Hyslop space for new academic buildings would be something to think about too. That would probably mean: - competition pool on Wellness - bubble over Memorial - another building somewhere down the road to replace the lost space in Hyslop. All that is probably at least a 10-15 year plan.
  7. Late 1970s/early 1980s (give or take).
  8. Time to bump this back to the top of the stack considering UND is now officially looking for one. http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/14426181.htm
  9. The flip side of that is we know some of those "higher up sources", although they may deny it vehimently, do read this board. If the "higher up sources" see what they told to someone in confidence pop up on here twenty minutes later, you've lost a source (and maybe a friend). Trust me, I've known stuff I'd have loved to post here, but I knew if I did it would ruin it for me and my sources.
  10. Resign. http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/14426181.htm
  11. Well, at least now Buning can quit waiting and get something done on this front. http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/14426181.htm
  12. Go to this thread at USCHO and read posts 287-294 about DU's venture to NCAA post-season play. http://board.uscho.com/showthread.php?t=58072 Remember, Denver is a school that dropped a 100-year-old baseball program (because of weather concerns, sound familiar?). Now, instead, they have springtime NCAA tournament games and excitement in mens lacrosse. Not a bad trade I'd say. DU's Lax site: http://denverpioneers.cstv.com/sports/m-la...acros-body.html
  13. Army is in AHA and the hot whisper is that Navy will be adding hockey and joining AHA. Welcome to your Armed Forces Hockey Cup. Some good conversation about this article also at http://board.uscho.com/showthread.php?t=58316 (especially post #128).
  14. It'd be like getting an offer from Vito or Michael Corleone.
  15. The 'hawks might be watchable then.
  16. USCHO has a pretty good article on the effects of Air Force leaving College Hockey America (CHA) for Atlantic Hockey. http://www.uscho.com/news/id,12591/ANewWorldOrder.html The demise of the CHA could be a big blow to hockey at Bemidji State. Some of the other potential effects are startling: And most interestingly, this: .....
  17. And Gopher fans think Sioux fans are tough on "Press Conference" Phil:
  18. At one point it was said that mummsy and da-da arranged that imfamous press conference, not Phil, not USA Hockey. "Lindros-like".
  19. Grand Forks has to have some advantage in this considering the Canadian equivalent of the US Center for Disease Control (CDC) is in Winnipeg. Ah shucks on that, eh? Of course some folks are bound and determined to save our vast emptiness forever. http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/14421002.htm It's easy to discount the economic impacts when you have your safe, tenured position already, eh professor? Are they going to form a group called SIEVE!* * Save Incredibly Enormous Vast Emptiness!
  20. Vaht?
  21. Let's clear this area up once and for all: Verbals are verbals until they become signed national letters of intent announced via press release from the school. Rumors are just rumors until they become facts backed up by confirmation from reputable sources (or the Grand Forks Herald :) ).
  22. Find the name of this person and you'll have the original source of the story. Isn't that special? This anonymous person is concerned about being fair to Potts by first letting him know the reasons the board wants him to resign. But he/she isn't the least bit concerned about the fairness of anonymously leaking the information to the media, allowing Potts to twist in the wind without knowing why he's being attacked in public.
  23. Try this: Going "anonymously" to the papers with this --> BS. And we still don't know who did it (heck, it could even be Paulson crazy as that sounds). At least Holmberg was quoted on the record, not that he should have opened this up in this manner either. The problems between Potts and some ND SBoHE schools on equity funding --> not BS, more likely the heart of the matter --> Follow the money. If memory serves, each UND and NDSU was allowed to select (help select?) peer institutions based on set criteria (enrollments, programs offered, history ala "land grant", professional programs ala Med and Law). Should the "peers" be re-evaluated? Then again, I agree with "ScottM" (in that we have too many schools under ND SBoHE).
  24. Why is a coach under contract admitting that he's applying for a job elsewhere before he's even a finalist for it? Who's hangin' whom out?
