  1. 7? What closed?
  2. ... "virtual" learning day. Translated: they'll virtually be learning something.
  3. First, hockey players are picking based on ... academics? That said, I stand by my belief: It's not the school you put the kid into; it's what the kid puts into school.
  4. We're not recruiting players to live in town fifty years. They're here for school (and vocational training).
  5. Should Central Cass and Kindred and Richland 44 and Northern Cass and Maple Valley close today? Yes. Should West Fargo? Maybe ... given they still have rural coverage out by Horace and Harwood. Should Fargo? Nope. How dare I say this? I challenge you to take a stroll through Wasted Acres later. The kids will be there.
  6. They fall under my "I just despise teams in maroon and gold" category: UMn, UMD, BC, DU, and ASU by default.
  7. Looking at the state road cameras, ... https://travel.dot.nd.gov/?layers=cameras,closed-blocked,event-orange,incident-red,informational-grey,roads,travelalerts,warning-blue,warning-yellow ... I've seen worse through my windshield. OK, OK, it might be a bit tough up by Rugby right now. I always love it when the map says "no travel" or "road closed" but the road camera shows some random rolling by in their truck.
  8. < crabby old man voice, because @PCMisn't here to use his > When I was a kid, the principal would stand on his front porch and hold his arm out and thumb up. If he could see his thumb, we had school, ... and he had an enclosed porch.
  9. Wasn't someone asking who the "western surprise" would be this year? Bottineau-Rugby on line one ... Note: Looks on the schedule like the East moved back a day (no games scheduled today) and what should be today is listed as tomorrow. https://ndhsaanow.com/schedules/icehockey-boys?program_id=&tier_id=&level=varsity&interval=today Yup, they shoved back a day. https://ndhsaanow.com/brackets/icehockey-boys/661/2022-ndhsaa-east-region-boys-hockey-tournament
  10. Midco has the reach of its cable system. Bally (formerly Fox Sports North) has a much greater reach. <-- Be happy about exposure here.
  11. ... um, 'extracurriculars' ...
  12. Schedules: https://ndhsaanow.com/schedules/icehockey-boys?program_id=&tier_id=&level=varsity&interval=today
  13. https://ndhsaa.com/news/1677/knox-radio-web-streaming-ndhsaa-east-region-boys-hockey-tournament https://ndhsaa.com/news/1851/nfhs-network-video-web-streaming-ndhsaa-west-region-boys-hockey-tournament
  14. I did half the heavy lifting. That's your homework.
  15. Right or wrong, like it or not, quality of play be damned, that "B1G" conference name carries panache that impresses starry-eyed recruits.
  16. I blame Connor Ford for not using the "Pittsburgh guys" mind-trick mojo on him. I'm kidding.
  17. Stay in Omaha. It's 60 miles.
  18. Actual balance sheet assets, I'd say no they haven't, but they're close, because of their deferred commitments and outstanding revocable pledges to come in. (As jdub said, they don't have $85M plus $143M actually in hand yet.) Look at UND AAF actual data (2021 auditor's report) and UND has over $500M in actual assets under management. You can't list pledges or promises on a balance sheet or audit report so the auditor's report is real money (well, as real as any balance sheet is when you're talking investments). You can list money under management that has donor stipulations (because you carry the asset, not a promise).
  19. Well, that took nine seconds of effort ... https://undalumni.org/financials-reports
  20. Since @gfhockey seems interested ... Here's the accounting of the NDSU drive: What catches my eye is the $146M of pledges (not in hand yet) and $143M of revocable deferred commitments. That's almost $290M (49%) of money promised, but not yet delivered, of the $586M. Is that a normal, usual, ratio for a campaign like this?
  21. These two are eight and nine in KRACH. I think it'll come down to health and who can (is available to) go.
  22. And the defenseman from WMU.
  23. BU head coach looks like “probey” McGee on NCIS to me.
  24. BU wins on a late goal 1-0. And they celebrate like they won the Stanley Cup … uh … oh-kay …
