Going chalk. Talk about risk taking.

The Legacy Fund is State money. There's no guarantee where it'd be spent. They could send it to roads or human services. And when that money is gone, what then? Next, please, read the forum guidelines that you agreed to when you signed up: No politics. Signed, The Management

The wildcard in this is ... facilities. What does UND own? What costs UND the least? What does UND own that may need near-term repairs or upgrades?

To me, this singular statement, which I tracked down for myself and found to be true, namely, is damning for women's hockey. If they we're "covering" half the REA expense I could see them running $1.4 million in the red. They're $1.4 million in the red not covering their half ($1.1 million) of REA. Men's ice hockey covers all the facilities costs for REA which is used by them, WIH, MBB, WBB, VB, and soccer (locker space).

I just don't see "Brian Faison" and "social media savvy" being used in the same sentence, other than this one.

That's not what I said. Football is going nowhere. However, allow it to be evaluated right now. It'll show it's a better "net" than most of the rest and it should quiet the noise from some quarters.

The Summit requires MBB and WBB. Men's hockey is not being cut.

Double elimination tournament bracket play of this. Winner decides.

Problem? I see conversation. About a public figure. Who's made a change.

I believe ASU was the target, but then the big open question (arena) on ASU still doesn't have an answer. So there sits the B1G at seven.

I can't control them (as long as they stay within forum guidelines).

Uh ... no. I can see IP addresses. And, he is a public figure by the very nature of his job.

Who's attacking? It is a legitimate question. --> What changed and why? I put it here assuming @UNDSID was a ... UND Sports ... topic of conversation.

Shhhh ... don't confuse them with reality.

Only the semis on today? I didn't see this on the tube* while eating my turkey sammich just now. *OK, flat panel.

You're late.

I followed @UNDSID expecting UND Sports related info. Instead, now, it's something else. If it was his personal account, he shouldn't have been using the @UNDSID name before. If it's UND's official account, he shouldn't be using it for personal items.

Right now it feels like bait-and-switch. I care what Jayson wants to put out as part of his day job. The rest is noise. There's enough noise in life.

Any decision, every decision, will come down to .... dollars.

Idaho and NMSU would like to speak to you about how their FB programs left the Sun Belt. (Hint: voted out, ejected)

Yeah ... a committee, like the last one that had to look at what to do with a fraction of the overall UND budget. You all remember that. It'll be awesome to see the chairs up there lobbying to save their departments.

Based on the response to this thread, I guess I'm not the only person who noticed and wondered.

I love that tactic: You may have the top to bottom responsibility for 12000 people, a quarter billion dollar budget, a billion (?) in assets, but you're clueless when I don't like what you're doing so it's now "mine". I boldly predict the purveyors of that petition would curl up and melt after one day of carrying the responsibilities of running a university.
