So you have Halloween 2018 covered. < and now we cut to Hovey on the axe >

Actually a 12-9-2-3-4-0 record. I wouldn't report that however; I'd report you have 112 standings points.

Five minute 5x5 OT. Shootout. But using 5 point games. Don't like the shootout? Five minute 5x5 OT. 2 point games. (No magic "extra point".)

Wasn’t he like one of their top six or so scorers? What do they think they’ll get for that money instead? < sigh >

If we get to pick, can I get a '53 to '64?

Before I assume, ... why are they unhappy?

The last place you could actually find Justice was the A's batting order circa 2002.

Everyone out west has Vegas fever -- we'll jump in and go straight to the top!

The OCR says UND did it all correctly with regard to Federal law. Should this suit actually win (somehow), it would bring every OCR finding into question. The courts could be backed up for years, decades.

Imagine Karlsson and Tavares both landing in Vegas.

The US Office of Civil Rights said UND is meeting Title IX. Getting a ruling contrary would really throw every OCR ruling for a loop. Call me skeptical.

Everyone has a complaint. I think they lack standing for anything more based on the OCR finding. PS - Compare cost per participant between FB and WIH. And you need participant numbers to balance. FB means VB and soccer and softball exist. Head count and cost per player equity.

Schlossman would have been all over it if it was anywhere near truthy. Thus I find the rumor to be just that.

Hayduke, in my perfect world we’d only play sports that were revenue benign to UNDs budget. But we can’t per the NCAA. We must play some revenue losers. And the Feds say you must meet Title IX. So, you have to play and make budget and make Title IX. If you’re an expensive sport you’d better provide revenue to keep your cost and cost per participant down.

The threat of a lawsuit was a driving influence to create the program. It proved unviable and unsustainable so it was dropped. Thus returnith the lawsuit (lack of) tact. And folks wonder why ...

Kennedy quoted the number as $60 million to endow the program to Mark Chipman . He didn’t bite.

Mentioning 15 years, compare Clarkson to UND in women’s hockey for the first 15. It’s the same window of time.

You have to wonder if that phasing and targeting the whole NDUS is making some around the state cringe.

Moorhead HS is adding boys and girls lax in 2019.

PS - Anyone still wonder why that big-time Title IX firm was hired and brought in to oversee UND's moves during the dropping of baseball, M/W S&D and women's hockey? Their actions and groundwork made OCR disappear in minimal time.

Sue the NDUS and I do believe their attorney is the right and honorable Attorney General of the great State of North Dakota. You're suin' the State kids. Not sure you'll enjoy what follows. Next, the OCR report and findings sure don't lend any help to the complainants. I wouldn't be surprised if the NDUS just appeared before a court and presented the findings of the body with jurisdiction on Title IX (OCR) and said this complaint is baseless and should be tossed on lack of merit. Mr. Seigel hopes for quick resolution; me-thinks he'll get his wish at least.

Have they officially announced who is coming in instead of Huber? Yes, the answer is all but a gimme, but an official release, senden it to us all , might be nice.

So would Luke Bast be a 2019 arrival? I ask because at D there are now two 2000 YOBs, two 2001, and two 2002. Seems that's the pipeline after Tychonick and JBD.
