The Sicatoka

Allow me to clarify: the MVC needed Murray. I'd be surprised if football assurances were not given when Murray jumped OVC --> MVC. The Dakotas are in a FB conference dominated by BB mindset.

I'd call that list about a 2:1 hit to miss ratio (just looking at past, not current or future). If this group can hold that ratio ...

Barstool's take on Hartman/Kane https://www.barstoolsports.com/blog/3413930/ryan-hartman-got-fined-by-the-league-for-flipping-off-evander-kane-immediately-receives-a-venmo-from-kanes-ex-wife

Fine for what? For this. < words here about a woman scorned >

Would like a word with you ...

One word: Audit.

None of the Dakotas needed Murray. The MVC wing of the MVFC needed Murray. Another case the author could've made is the MVC/MVFC could've let NDSU and SDSU swing in the wind. They did a solid for the 'SUs and expected similar in return.

Poor kid has not one but two accountants (accountancy professors) for parents. Imagine allowance time for him! https://und.edu/directory/assion.lawsonbody https://und.edu/directory/laurence.lawsonbody

May the Twins should trade Krilloff to the Wild for Kirill Kaprizov. Krilloff for Kirill-ov.

Just being compared to Villanueva is lofty praise.

Like I said, folks notice ... https://www.tribstar.com/sports/local_college_sports/isu_sports/todd-aaron-golden-would-it-have-killed-ndsu-to-do-the-mvc-schools-a-solid/article_37f6c977-de27-5068-950c-9313fc639c3d.html The other thing of note in the article: It took 8 of 11 votes for Murray to get in. Clearly the MVC folks (5), plus WIU has said they voted yes. I'd think YSU would vote with the MVC; there's seven. So at least one of the Dakota 4 voted yes. It wasn't NDSU; UND gave a "no comment" (a tell to me of a no*, but I could be wrong). The SD schools have always been BB-first minded. It would not surprise me to find they both voted with the MVC (BB) contingent. Any insights @Yote 53 ? * GF to Murray, KY (1100 miles) is the same as GF to Cheney WA (EWU, 1100 miles). UND just left the BSC to get rid of 1100 trips.

You are SO missing some letters: Mastrosimone Ture Linden (F, RPI) hasn’t landed somewhere yet, and that surprises me.

And now ... Jewwy Yowk retires: the BC job is open.

Wilbur at work:

Luke Sillinger looked good in green, and would've looked good in green. < bleep > ASU coed recruiting tools <-- be careful with link usage

BU and Michigan State and Union and Augie have openings. Michigan's coach is under investigation by the school. RPI's head coach's contract expires at the end of the week and there's not even negotiations going on supposedly. Good times.

Sears? Extravagance. Most teams had to wear "Monkey" Wards.

You do realize that only a small fraction of offers become acceptances.

You're saying the event is remembered a decade or more later? That public undressing, a public belittling of others' areas for improvement, that'd be like announcing you voted "no" (and listing faults) to a new member after a private vote that added a member to the conference. And you're saying folks remember that. Who'd be so silly to do either? <-- that's rhetorical; we know the answers. Why don't people understand ... praise in public, punish in private.
