  1. From The Schloss: The more I think about it the more that the IAC had to be "educated" grates on me. Here is their website: http://und.edu/university-senate/committees/intercollegiate-athletic-committee.cfm They are a standing committee. They existed back in the transition to DI days. This is their wheel-house. It what they exist for. And here's one of their primary tasks: The key word in there is ANNUAL. They should be aware of what the budget is and what it nominally looks like, they should know enough about "financial matters" of Athletics, to start this process without "education".
  2. Oh don't get me so giddy and excited.
  3. Do it publicly: sideshow. Do it privately: tyrant. Can't. Win. And if the IAC had to be educated about the Athletic department, what the < bleep > have they been doing? They are a standing committee of the University Senate tasked with overseeing intercollegiate athletics. They are a group that is mandated by NCAA membership (shows institutional control and oversight). Finally, as I've said all along, the IAC being involved is a nice-nice play by Kennedy because he's already said it's his decision and he's going to do it once.
  4. How many years are left on the Target Center deal?
  5. I thought Wisconsin had stronger laws against child abuse.
  6. Here's the memo: http://www.msubobcats.com/news/2016/10/4/general-a-letter-from-the-a-d-october-04-2016.aspx
  7. Yes, the upper portion. They had the new logo on it a couple times between commercials during stoppages.
  8. The center hung board at REA.
  9. Four fried chickens and a Coke. Dry, white toast.
  10. I know this is blasphemy, but, the new logo looked really good on the REA center ice display. Yes, better than the Brien logo. The center ice display never had the resolution to do justice to something so intricate as the Brien logo. The new logo looked clean and sharp.
  11. It's comes as one large package.
  12. And the Foundation being well endowed.
  13. How would we do that? We're already having to redecorate with just Conference and National Championship banners up there.
  14. Not sayin', just sayin' ...
  15. Question: Are the bonds on The Betty paid off? Normally creditors want to see some retained earnings to show cash flow and to help guarantee and secure any obligations.
  16. "City Keeps Prime Downtown Empty Land, Asks Residents For Sales Tax Increase Because They Need More Money." is better?
  17. Yup. Science! http://www.livescience.com/21928-london-olympic-swimming-pool-tech.html
  18. This? http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/local/4081908-3-contrasting-proposals-develop-arbor-park-downtown-grand-forks
  19. I do not know if you are correct or not; however, I've been told the pool is leaking and needs work. I may be wrong, but it was from a reasonable source.
  20. Are you saying the new chair-style seating is not fixed but is mobile and can be retracted and stored? In the photos here (admittedly not definitive) it looks like the chair seating is all out. I don't see anything yet to be pulled out further.
  21. That last picture might start to look like the rendering; however, the wood bleachers over the top of new seating (just to get a capacity number) is something that folks that have to look at it will soon enough come to regret. I'm guessing the top of scoreboard ring approaches $350k in cost and is a pretty easy line item to eliminate if costs are getting too high. I guess I'll stay with the options UND has: - under 3500: Betty - under 6000: Ralph lower bowl - under 9000: Alerus in BB config - under 13500: Ralph in BB config
  22. At risk of repeating myself: Even if that's not how it happened in the most recent statements, that should be done right now on the pro forma that the IAC and President Kennedy are using during their reviews. As it stands now, it looks like the mens side of the ledger is more expensive than it really is. Right now MIH is shown as paying the expense, all the expense ($2,234,982), for use of REA. Between WIH, WBB, WVB, and WSoc, I don't think it is wrong to apply about $1M of that (~45%) to the women's side of the ledger.
