The Sicatoka

Uh, um, ... FIPPA is Canadian law. Pretty sure that doesn't apply to the University of North Dakota ... unless what Gopher fans have claimed all those years really is true.

It would .... but after the delivery.

Imagine one of NDSU's lineman tests coming back clean ... but pregnant. ...

I know some of you have a priapism* for NDSU right now, but first things first: Drake. The Bulldogs are coming off a 7-4 campaign (2nd in Pioneer League) where their losses were @Montana, Stetson, San Diego, and @Iowa State. Looking past Drake would be a catastrophic mistake, especially having installed a new offense. To the NDSU fans reading this: Your opener? Butler? Meh. No worries. They don't get up for season openers. Look past them. You'll be fine. *That's for Mama Sue, the nurse, to explain.

There's the data I'm looking for. (The stuff geaux provided is like "sun rose in the east.")

Honestly? 6'4" but just 190*. He better add some muscle to that or he'll shatter when hit at DI level. *WR Maag is 6'4" and 200 and looks slight out there.

JJ at 225 would be just as solid and damaging to defenses, but would have better speed and quickness and probably better cardio endurance*. *Not that I should speak of either.

Someone tell me about NDSU's offensive line going into 2019.

Not hiring DeBoer to me is a big part of the reason behind this run of mediocrity.

Wrong. Richter Award finalists.

One of those will be the Summit title game. Mark that down.

So much stupid in just one image. Please, please tell me that's a photo shopped image and not a real shirt. So, so much stupid ...

It's a college roster. Lots of space for a FG specialist and a KO specialist.

About that ... Harrison Feeney is 20 today and his DOB is Feb 4, 1998. If he came in this fall he'd be a 21 year old freshman. I forget the rule about coming in at 21: I think that's where you only have three eligible playing seasons (or is it if you come in at 22 you only get three seasons ... )

"All out" seems strong. Pure supposition by me but I suspect it went something like. Scene: Friday Morning, Grand Forks, ND, Ralph Engelstad Arena; a hockey medical and training staff person walks into Brad Berry's office where Dane Jackson and Matt Shaw are making final preparations for a weekend home series. Med staff: Uh, Brad? Berry: Yeah. Med staff: Thome's done for the year. That bad. < long, uncomfortable silence in the room > Berry: You're sure. < med staff stares back with that "we don't kid about injuries" look > Berry: < profanity omitted > ... Oh-kay ... < looking to Jackson > ... so, we can't run with two goalies. Jackson: No, doesn't work. Berry: So what's out there that we've looked at and that can get through the clearinghouse for this semester ... < all attention turns to the recruits list that Berry has brought out from its secret hiding spot >

It's Bemidji. And I bet you it was daisy-wheel fed paper with the edges torn off.

USI.

I still wonder what the 1986-87 "Hrkac Circus" national championship team would've been with this guy as a freshman forward. https://www.bemidjipioneer.com/sports/hockey/4557578-hockey-day-minnesota-bemidjis-mr-hockey-george-pelawas-legend-lives

First, it's a guy they were already looking at. Next, find me an NCAA team carrying just two goalies. Furthermore, the way they run a practice you need three just for the drills. Finally, I'm happy they could find a guy willing to come in at semester break.

Your fellow Bison fan brought him up quite easily. I guess you're behind.

I didn't figure it was good when Thome wasn't even able to go pre-game warm-ups* or run the gate either night. *At home you can warm up three goalies.

At one time I believe it was Mike Prpich that was the "dogs and cats" goalie meaning two are hurt, one is playing, and you have to have one dressed on the bench. If you only have Scheel and "Bob" and one goes down, then what, ... Mark Senden straps on the "Tools of Ignorance*" and runs the gate? *I apply that phrase to goalie gear and catcher's gear.

And yet, based on media reporting, NDSU fans immediately knew and brought up the name ...
