The Sicatoka

If Kennedy went to McGarry and said you can have any single thing under my power at UND changed, at your whim, aside from my removal, I wonder what she'd choose. Her answer would be so telling.

Lots and lots of egos leading to misadventures all around.

Will Augie keep football or will they pull an Omaha and drop the sport? If they keep football, will they move it to the Pioneer League?

We don't have official statement from a source that would have first-hand knowledge (meaning NDSU, Robbins, or the NCAA). Short of that official word we have only claims and hearsay (no matter what one may choose to believe).

Again, we don't know that is the stimulant to have been found at excessive (meaning illegal in NCAA competition) levels.

To this point Robbins' problem has been speculated to be caffeine; it has not been officially confirmed by any party that would have direct knowledge (Robbins, NDSU, NCAA).

Fenton's older brother is on the OL at Wisconsin.

People are focusing on Larson refuting a Robbins claim ("trusted program staff member" vs "student-athlete"). What we're not seeing is that Larson all but affirmed a different portion of what Robbins claims ("student-athlete", "throughout the locker room" full of student-athletes). So, whatever it is (and we don't definitively know what "it" is yet), at minimum Larson's student-athletes have "it" by his word. That would seem to make Robbins' second claim plausible.

Haven't they already? Or is this the final installment?

I write a check for a parent (who's no longer capable) for $6775 each month for their living facility. Then I write checks for medical insurance, prescription meds, and expenses of living.

The budget in the Legislature being proposed by the Governor is $14.2 billion ($14,200 million) for two years. $6,000 million runs the State for 10 months.

That's just short of a decade old. That's from when NDSU players were robbing Best Buy or when NDSU players were faking ballot petition signatures.

Dang. I like Hesham.

As a former politician he's used to being on the "demanding tribute" side of the equation, not the "being demanded of". He was a 'fixer' in corporate life; that applies when dealing with internal budgets.

Remember when I said ... It's gotten worse ...

Will Brock Robbins be on the trip?

In the video did Bubba say they're changing the defense also? Right about 10 seconds left in video he says ... " ... obviously have new defense that we're installing, some new things, and offensively we gotta learn the offense ... "

What also bothers me? Gifts with strings. Why'd the word extortion just jump to mind.

What most bothers me is McGarry is arm-twisting both UNLV and UND. She must be pretty good to think she should be picking presidents everywhere she looks.

The media is not liking an outsider businessman in a powerful role they think they should have sway over. Shocked.

Surely it's on the chair back.

Apparently UND got the botulism laced cupcake this season.

Not to out you, but I hear that was made available during Phase II due to your generous donation.

After a three week layoff all they can hope is they shake the rust off as the second period starts and that they aren't too far down at that point.
