    Um ... what? Future?

    And why him at LB? He runs well. Why not safety?

    Number 27. Yes, Number 27 in the country in goals scored per game. Under 3 goals per game. Yes, just 2.92 goals per game. That is not good enough. That's a team that can't recover from a miscue, a bad hop off the boards, or any of the other myriad of misfortune goals-against that happen during games. And that's even if you are Number 12 in fewest goals allowed per game (same link, scroll, 2.38 GAPG). Let's look at this another way: UND is scoring a half a goal (0.55) more per game than they give up. UMD? 0.90 more. SCSU? 1.18 more. DU? 1.26 more. All of them score more per game and two of the three give up fewer (SCSU at 2.49 is about even with UND at 2.38). The defense needs to at minimum hold serve (be as good as this season) and the offense needs to pick it up in 2018-19.

    http://www.mlive.com/eagles/index.ssf/2018/03/no_plans_to_cut_football_at_ea.html EMU cut its softball, wrestling, women's tennis and men's swimming and diving programs on Tuesday. Next came the question: Why not cut football? Pretty simple, blunt answer: Before this week's cuts EMU sponsored 21 sports. They cut 4. Anyone else heard those numbers before? But here's the biggest "ouch" at EMU: The article is a good, and fairly short, read.

    You take that; I'll bet the field.

    If Mittelstadt was more than a wisp of a human being he'd be gone already. You have to wonder how tDon's departure is affecting his thoughts.

    No. Be envious of Nashville.

    You forgot to ...

    I believe "rogue's gallery" is more befitting.

    For you, done.

    Yo, bale, you may like my bracket picks ... When should I expect your check?
  12. The Sicatoka
    You're making me proud to be a fellow UND fan.

    Very nice. I wish you'd have shared this notion earlier. I'd have done the same. I ended up sending mine to a co-worker's relative who lives in the SF area who already had tickets. They'll try to see that mine get used one way or another.

    If there's no monorail I don't want to hear about it anyway. Same goes for a retractable roof.

    So, when do we get to heckle, laugh at, see everyone else's picks? Mine are, shall we politely say, ... interesting.

    There is much early departure bleeding yet to come. The team buses going to the NCAAs will not be as full returning is my guess.

    Isn't Dooley's collegiate eligibility done?

    I'm guessing one of the topics was: HPC Phase II.

    ... and we'll remind you they're still 7 behind ...

    And like it or not, in today's world university presidents and ADs are like the front-man in a band.

    God helps those who help themselves and you seem to have a ton of free time. Have at it.

    KVRR is not the first source I look to for UND Hockey breaking news. Like I said, that's Schlossman or Heinert.

    Yes, BIZ, you recognized sounding like a captain: Rhett Gardner on returning for his senior season: "This year left a sour taste. I want to get everything back to where it was when I came here as a freshman." No "hopefully". No "we'd like". A simple "I want." See problem. Define problem. Define solution. Work to it.

    Off-season homework: 1. If there are issues in the room, resolve them. Everyone pulls on the same rope in the same direction. 2. Power play efficiency meaning both on and killing. 3. Offensive mindset. Perfect is the enemy of good enough. Don't wait for the perfect shot; get the shot off. 4. Conditioning. Yes, conditioning. The forwards need to get back faster and harder and transition better. The defense needs to work on positioning and transitions. The pace needs to be faster and that requires even better conditioning. I'm tired of seeing a D-to-D pass and the receiver being flat-footed and looking for a passing lane. Move. Go.
