No coach will succeed in Philly until the raft of rickets they've had in net is resolved.

Semester break is here. There are no more 'freshmen' excuses.

Cherry (or at least a good maple with a cherry/mahogany stain). Next question.

To each their own, but to me this far exceeds any of the following.

No, I'm sorry but no; you are incorrect. KSU just proved you incorrect. And I believe WSU and EWU do the same.

Did someone say something about coach swirl before a key game? Why'd the words "Motzko" and "Sioux Falls regional" and "Gopher job" and "SCSU bounced by USAFA" just jump to mind? https://www.sctimes.com/story/sports/college/hockey/husky-hockey/2018/03/20/motzko-declines-comment-gophers-job-talks-lucias-legacy-working-him/443661002/ Oh ... that's why. https://www.sctimes.com/story/sports/college/hockey/husky-hockey/2018/03/27/scsus-motzko-new-gophers-mens-hockey-head-coach/463097002/ Wasn't part of that story that Motzko interviewed with Gopher brass in Sioux Falls? Yeesh ... All that said, given the choice, "no coach swirl" is preferred before any big game. I don't care who you are.

Heck, even ET and other space aliens knew it too!

Please explain this leap. Are you saying by merely breathing the word "football" it starts the conversation for the WAC and they get to remind western FCS teams they have the magic wand, the golden touch, as a former FBS conference to give the (required) invitation for a team to move FCS --> FBS?

I come into this thread continually hoping for a big, mean, ugly, likes-to-walk-on-you, hog report. (The ugly is negotiable.) Where's my offensive line that teams fear.

Back to one of my favorite arguments ... Yes, NDSU has had quite a run a QB. There's no argument there. But I'm going to say their offensive line play has been equally, if not more so, as important and good through that period of time. Good OL play comes from three factors: offensive scheme (using what you've got to the best of its ability), coaching, and strength and conditioning.

Being the house contrarian, I tend to look at KRACH. Yes, PWR is how they seed, but KRACH gives me a more objective feel than PWR or RPI. KRACH has UND at 10 right now. When I see a team that can split road at UMD and just miss a home sweep of DU that seems about right ... if they play the way they need to play. https://collegehockeyranked.com/rankings/krach/

If the bones of the Herald building are good, repurposing it is a great idea. Rather than build a library why not use that existing building. If some street-level retail could be put in, all the better. Does GF Central need additional space? Does City Hall need space? That building is right there for both.

The Snyder angle is real and the largest lurking negative for Klieman, but at least it’s out there and not in the shadows. Frankly, NDSU losing the S&C guy, as I heard he’s going with, may be just as big news but overlooked. He’s been an unsung hero to that program.

Congrats to Klieman. He earned it and you don’t walk away from that kind of money when offered. That said, this means nothing for UND but get back on task of getting better.

The original Pizza Corner restaurant in Valley City is the mainstay. Everything else is second in comparison.

Dixie's been busy. Two days ago -- new FB coach: https://www.ksl.com/article/46441570/with-division-i-potential-on-the-horizon-dixie-state-quickly-calls-up-paul-peterson-from-snow-college Link in that article: https://www.ksl.com/article/46417459/study-dixie-state-considering-jump-to-ncaa-division-i-with-eyes-on-the-wac

Well yeah duh.

That's the mainstay.

Vending machine, .... definitely vending machine ...

Big XII or Pac 12?

Honestly, Costco is like that at times also.

As far as UMD's Saturday night ... Can't do the time (in the penalty box), don't do the crime.
