  1. The polite, UND, thinking man's, answer: The commercial art studios are downtown. This would be co-locating students with them (while still leaving a base at HFAC on campus). Or The vitriolic, uncouth, posting forum answer for contrast: Segregation? Is that why NDSU students that don't smell like animal barns now have a downtown campus in Fargo (so they don't get made fun of by those that do smell like the barns)?
  2. It's out there. And I'm surprised where I heard it (UND event in Grand Forks recently).
  3. Complete the following sentence please: NDSU Football had its last 3-8 season in 20__ which is just __ seasons ago.
  4. UND fans had time to laugh it up from about 1997 to 2003 (UND on top, NDSU down). Well that changed: NDSU is riding high, UND is down. But as always, the times, they is a-changin' ... and always will.
  5. My calendar says "next game" is closer than "last game" right now so it's time to move on to that. <turn page>
  6. 1. If you can't just block the kick, I guess you resort to rodent-based gimmicks. 2. No one should ever complain about using the "Caddyshack" / Bill Murray / " ... license to kill gophers ... " clip ever again.
  7. Yup, the applicant list on December 11 is the one sure to have the finalists and the selection.
  8. Reading that list, Robin Ross really caught my eye ... http://www.gowyo.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/ross_robin00.html
  9. Dave got the job on his merits, yes; but this rumbling is out there. I noted the alignment of Dave's latest deal just before O'Keefe's announcement. To me that signals a clearing of the way to a change, if need be, down the road.
  10. Which is why you start calling teams something to compensate ... UND running game -- Ground Cav! UND hockey -- Ice Cav! and of course ... UND passing game -- Air Cav! Cav alone is bad, so fix it.
  11. I had a bad case of "screaming weasel" one time. Fighting Squirrels! http://reorder-checks.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/bradford-fighting-squirrels.jpg
  12. Given the statue of Tatanka Yotanka (Sitting Bull), the warrior, on his horse, is still in front of REA ... Cavalry (from French cavalerie, cf. cheval 'horse') or horsemen were soldiers or warriors who fought mounted on horseback. Yes, Cavalry. Sitting Bull was cavalry. So was Teddy Roosevelt. Cavalry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavalry
  13. Uh ... no. Now if Vandals wasn't already taken ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vandal_Kingdom
  14. Allow me to be blunt: Hakstol signed a new deal (to 2017 I think) as his father-in-law stepped away from heading the Alumni Foundation. I think everyone, including Dave, knows he needs to hang a green banner (north end rafters at REA) under this deal or (a) he'll be confirmed as UND's "Doug Woog" and (b) he won't be signing a new deal. He's setting his defensive corps for the future as they take longer to mature. The forwards are lined up. Dave knows. He'll execute, or he won't.
  15. The senior class is four guys: two are transfers, another can't stick in the line-up, and the last is one of the calendar-youngest captains I can recall. And they we have an underperforming junior class. There. I said it. Un. Der. Per. For. Ming. Under. Performing. We need the freshmen to get to semester break, because there are no freshmen after semester break if they are doing it right.
  16. If guys on scholarship leave, that opens up a scholarship for the new coach to get a guy that buys into his system. Plus, you lose a guy that wasn't bought in. I'm trying to figure out how that is bad.
  17. 1. Linemen 2. Offensive linemen 3. Defensive linemen 4. Guys who play on the line of scrimmage 5. Guys who start with one hand on the ground 6. Big uglies for up front
  18. NDSU never led in the game. Tied at 0-0 and 19-19; never an NDSU lead.
  19. Uh ... um ... shoot ... you almost let UND there.
  20. You would be well advised to mind your personal attacks, slurs, and poseur habits. Signed, The Management
  21. I strongly recommend a few folks start self-moderating or (to borrow the soccer term) I see some "yellow cards" in some folks' futures. Quit hijacking; quit the personal stuff; or I'll help you. Signed, The Management
  22. The BU coach basically said he was the beneficiary of "home cooking" officiating Friday night during the pre-game interview with Tim Hennessy. I guess there were leftovers.
