    For background, we go to both men’s and women’s basketball and have for over 25 years, including going to national tournaments.  Part of the fan base problem is having coaches that make efforts to grow the program.  That doesn’t happen in UND basketball.  Glas was not a stellar coach but he was a good ambassador for the program and active in the surrounding community.  At that time, there were 3 times as many fans at games than now, despite now having supposedly higher level basketball.  Football for most of the last several years has been a bit of a dumpster fire and yet Bubba has gone out of his way to grow the program and increase attendance.  It may not last without improvement but attendance has been better.  Nobody knows who Jones is....  there is no outside school and community relations going on that I can see.  Couple that with an inability to coach to win a close game and/or close out a game.  I realize we just won by 1 but tried to throw away a 10 point lead but for WIU making a couple of colossal mistakes to save us from ourselves.  That won’t change until we see a coaching change.  We are destined for mediocrity and no fan base.  As to women’s, after 25 years, even I am having to talk myself into going to watch that mess... and I never thought I would say that.  Changes clearly need to be made....

    Coach Glas had that charisma and sold the fact that he loved UND and, above all else, his players. Who doesn’t remember “Basketball is a game of runs and gaps”? That’s what he preached. 

     Coach Jones?

    I just noticed a genius on Craigslist listed his two of tickets as $40 each or $90 for the pair.....:huh:

    Well, supply and demand!  There is easily more demand for a pair of seats than individual seats, so the price is higher, right?  Maybe he will refuse to sell two individual seats to the same person.  Just playing devils advocate haha.... that wasn't me.   

    Possibly a typo? An oversight editing a previous post? Who knows?

    Had to check craigslist to make sure it wasn’t my post. It wasn’t. 

    Glad you had the opportunity to call the person out, though. Hope you feel better now.

    I do seem to have, shall we politely say, a less than positive track record. 

    You probably visited Dagwood’s, Joe Dimaggio’s, Shakey’s, Players, Frenchy’s, & Toppers before games at one time, too. All good pre-game venues back in the day in GF. Look what you’ve done.

    Really? What are the odds that this spoiled-rotten heiress would ever give us a substantial amount of money in the future? I say the odds are very slim to none. Also, the very existence of REA, Inc. as a non-profit entity is predicated on the proceeds benefiting UND. I don't think that premise is met by skimming 52% of the FB revenue off the top. I don't think that premise is met by REA taking a lion's share of the profits for itself. As some have stated on here, if a non-profit organization is not being true to its charter, their non-profit status with the IRS could be jeopardized.......if someone had the backbone to report them.

    I'll let that last thought hang in the air for everyone to ponder.

    Someone is quite pompous. Would like a little context on how you’ve concluded that she’s “spoiled-rotten”. Pretty sure you know as much about KEM as I do. As for REA, Inc... Quite the allegations you make. Report them then. Put up or shut up.

    He'll back back with the Force in the spring, so will get back to that competition. Looking forward to it!

    This is most of the story. And sad. Hak told me "best hands I've seen for a 16 yo" when he committed, then Marks took over and told him to toughen up, and the rest is history...

    Cakebread?  The kid with a hatty game one in the ushl (as a 16 year old) and never did anything again?  I’m curious on your comparison.

    Another drop on the roller coaster called Cakebread’s hockey career:

    I still wish they had the student sections at the end where UND shot twice.

    Could stand the whole time, and could chirp at the goalie for 40 out of the 60 minutes and maybe get in his head. 

    I just never got the appeal of chirping at the guy in the penalty box.

    Oh well.

     

    no, they could not. issue is the height from seats to suites. It would be same issue as in 108/109.

    I misread what Mafia wrote, Siouxperfan said to calm down and I agreed. I have post under one name. Jim Dahl can ban me from the site if I am lying. It’s not unheard of to have more than one person on this site that agrees with the concept that most coaches have embraced the new name while Berry, the REA and the presicous Sioux forever snowflakes have not.

    Away from the board for nearly a year and come back to this silliness. Presious. I bet you're still not attending games, too.
