You're about 20 hours premature. (ND HS hockey semis are in The Ralph tonight.) If you were The Sioux you'd take another stupid penalty and be down 5x3 for good chunk of that.

Assuming they have the skill, here's some light reading for "duckies and bunnies". http://www.fightingsioux.com/sports/mhocke...RELEASE_ID=3360 http://www.fightingsioux.com/sports/mhocke...RELEASE_ID=3367 And here's what all that means: http://www.national-letter.org/

Doofi? It must be the plural of "doofus". I like it!

Don't the Gophers have some, how shall we say, "track record" or "history" in that area?

Here's who was out when UND scored: 15,8,27,18,G34 (SHG by 15) 11,29,15,8,18,G34 (G by 11) I see three or four seniors on the ice for every non-empty net goal. I see freshmen and sophomores out at forward when UND scores. The freshmen scoreth, and the seniors giveth away. Seniors. Leaders, right? Then why did the team elect a junior as captain? What's that alone say about this senior class? The saving grace is that I see an on-ice leader for next season emerging.

To quote a great line, "show me the money," and you'll convince me. I reference my statement to Montana and their recent $1,000,000 athletic budget deficits.

I had one come back at me. NDSU's numbers for this year aren't in yet. You'd hate to have that come back at you. PS - How do you go "L, L, L, W, W" at a tournament and win it? What format is that?

Higher TV ratings. Revenue positive championship for the NCAA. Each has its merits. What you chose not to address is this: Sure wrestling is taken care of, but why not deal with items that could be revenue positive for the budget (like star2city mentions)? For example, the BESC for volleyball is a facility many DI programs would envy and volleyball has that potential for fan interest. PS - How'd Bison softball do against BU, UCF, and Longwood this season?
-
Knowing that Harmeson is UND's NCAA faculty athletic representative, that was a gimme bet as soon as RT announced he was moving to the NCC commissioner job. Harmeson is also chairing the search committee.

Wrestling? Softball? The words of many an NDSU fan, namely "Nobody cares about ....", are ringing here also, but even more loudly. That's a nice wrestling room. And it would fit in here almost twice: http://www.visitgrandforks.com/main/ralph A 30,000 seat stadium at Valdosta? Would anyone in the south not be in a football stadium on a Saturday afternoon? Valdosta appears to be getting the capital expenditures for facilities taken care of before having to raise the annual capital of an expanded annual budget. I believe I'm seeing that same theme at UND as star2city does as well.

Can I choose having c. Both.

I wonder how much this past weekend will play into the awarding of The Virg Foss Award (given to the team that best follows an outstanding first half of the season with a second half collapse).
-
Yes, an assistant AD from Oregon State applied. An assistant AD from Stanford (Ray Purpur) applied as well: - he grew up in Grand Forks - graduated from UND - and he is a relative of a guy named Clifford "Fido" Purpur.

Of the 6 games remaining, how many will we win?
The Sicatoka replied to 01grad's topic in Men's Hockey
It would have been poetic justice if UAA had scored off the center ice face-off after that. And here Randy was having a good game (save his beginning footwork) up to that point. -
Actually, RT's last day is Friday. There's a reception for him at J. Lloyd Stone House (Alumni Center) on Wednesday from 2 to 5 pm. They hope to have the new AD in play before the end of the semester (in April). To the "candidates": What is your opinion of merging the UND AD position with the General Manager position of REA (and having the day-to-day operations manager of REA become the Assistant AD for Facilities)?
-
One trip to Washington and one Washington team in GF annually (conference so no guarantee to pay) vs. having to fill two, probably home, dates (and probably pay guarantees to both). Easy. That's why having a conference is important: It helps in budget planning.

To meet Title IX (at any public school level) you need to meet two areas: 1. Effective Accommodation of Students

(on a suspect radio with bad wiring ) TH: We're here tonight with new UND AD Diggler. How's she going Diggler? D: That's Mr. Diggler to you Tim. TH: Alright. .... SS: We have a caller. Go ahead caller. Caller: Is that me? Am I on? TH: Go ahead. That's you. Caller: Congrats on the AD job Diggler! I go to all of the home games. I'd like a section where I can cheer loud, not have to get up five times a period for people to go who-knows-where during the game, and nothing but blue jeans and Sioux apparel would be allowed. What would you think of creating a "die-hards" section with those rules for season ticket holders? I'll hang up and listen.

There's lots more to the story. http://siouxsports.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3470 http://siouxsports.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3498 http://siouxsports.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3681

In this free time maybe PCM can hype a chapter or two of his book that comes out in the spring: Self-Promotion Via The Internet: How I Powered My Rapid Rise To "Sudo"-Reporter Stardom and Fortune!
