    There was less than 30% voter turnout in round one. What'll it be by round three?
  2. The Sicatoka
    But according to the newly re-written rules, "most votes" of FH, RR or N ... wins. Unless someone re-re-writes the already re-written rules. It's time to step back and run under the process and rules the first vote was advertised under (top two), otherwise, I can claim a bait and switch has happened and the voters were harmed --> If you knew "top three" going in, would you have voted differently?

    Foghorn Leghorn was a chicken. The little guy was a chicken hawk.

    Yes, we need a majority; however, in this arbitrary (based on original stated process) three-way race, it won't happen. Worse? They've already said the most votes (majority not required) wins this round ... Unless they change the rules ... again.

    Born: Union Hospital, Mayville, ND I find Nodak, when used by a non-North Dakotan toward a North Dakotan, is used as a derogatory term intended to mean "backwards" or "hick".

    Again I say bologna. Abe Vigoda guy (siouxphan27) was staunchly "anti- Roughriders" and he's saying "top two" when we know it takes his favorite out of play. There are others. What's good for the University is to not appear to be influencing the vote by arbitrarily and capriciously changing the rules on the fly. What's good for the University is to make statements and live to them.

    Bologna. The final process was defined and advertised. If this was only an advisory vote and the rules could be changed on the fly it should've been advertised as such. If Kelley wanted an advisory vote he should've said that. Instead, we have a blatant renege on the process that was defined and advertized by Dr. Kelley. "Renege" is a nice way of saying we've all been lied to. When will it happen again.
  9. The Sicatoka
    The committee recommended it, but Kelley adopted it. Kelley changing the process he advertised is not acceptable. If he wanted to retain control he should have held an advisory vote and said he'd use those results to define the next step. Instead, he defined a process and then reneged. He lied to me; he lied to all of us.
  10. The Sicatoka
    Exactly. Was it 100? 200? 250? Top two means top two. With five options a small gap between numbers two and three should've been easily considered and expected. The process as laid out handled it: top two. The process needs to be followed as advertised and this "Don Adam" (make this ---- up as I go) stuff has to stop.
  11. The Sicatoka
    Hasn't happened much lately, but here we agree. Follow the process. If it's not followed here what "Don Adam" thing will be used next.
  12. The Sicatoka
    We need to demand the process that was defined be followed. Tell him. robert.kelley@und.edu
  13. The Sicatoka
    Kelley came to his senses and followed the process (committee recommendations) before. He must follow the process, HIS process, again or he's clearly open to the criticism that he's manipulating the outcome.
  14. The Sicatoka
    Dr. Kelley needs to step back and follow the process he defined and just go with two. Otherwise how are we to not believe that he'll change the rules again this round? He needs to maintain the integrity of his own process.
  15. The Sicatoka
    My question is this: Will Kelley backtrack on putting three on the ballot or will he backtrack on not requiring a majority vote in round two? Backtracking and changing the rules midstream are the only parts of this process that have been consistent.
  16. The Sicatoka
    No, he's in the B1G not the NCHC.
  17. The Sicatoka
    One University.

    To me the GFRRHS issue is a non-issue. For many years in the Canadian Football League (same league!) there were the Rough Riders (Ottawa) and the Roughriders (Saskatchewan). If Canadians could manage that, folks in Grand Forks can manage UND being called "Roughriders".
  19. The Sicatoka
    Folks, Jonathan Toews is a winner.
  20. The Sicatoka
    Is either team being coached by Ditka?
  21. The Sicatoka
    I've wondered that. I wonder what the Qualtrics contract with UND says. If they just have to report the final or outcome results, UND will get a letter that says "___________ won by getting a majority." An open records request will only get that letter to UND (because depending on the contract stipulations Qualtrics is not subject to open records). Now if the contract says "report all survey results to UND" an open records request will show it all.

    What a mess WDAY-AM is on daytime weekdays.
  23. The Sicatoka
    Subaru, eh? Sturdy. Reliable. Dependable. Efficient. Prepared for anything (symmetrical all wheel drive). In it for the long haul. Roughrider.
  24. The Sicatoka
    Seems like a resonable response.
  25. The Sicatoka
    Like it or not, people perceive your comments on how well you present them. If you're going to criticise the offensive play calling or the offensive coordinator it might be good to not call them what you hear (offense of) but what the jobs are (offensive). And for the record, I'd like better, less conservative, play calling with a lead. It's pretty clear that in the BSC a 14 point second half lead is something most teams can easily overcome over good defenses.
