  1. I would say the "Grand Forks star logo" would probably be the favorite. (Minus the star part)
  2. And in converse, some people don't like them cause they aren't the official logo. Release the "official" and these unofficial logos at the same time on an even playing field and it's probably pretty split among which is the favorite.
  3. I was wondering what was up.

    WoO first stop in GF is a week from today, June 7. And again August 16. Like most things, Minots date probably went to Fargo. Would-be surprised to see GF get one less date and Fargo adding a second in the future.

    In that article you linked, Kahne is hoping to be cleared by doctors on Monday and continue racing. So there seems to be a chance he races. I did add some wishful thinking on my part. Article written on 2015, River Cities Speedway ranked No. 1 in the country for sprint car racing Not sure if the WoO came twice back then or not. When the WoO first started to come to GF it was so successful they added a second date for it on the tour and has continued that way ever since. Article from last year: Schatz Wins WoO in GF Tickets ain't cheap either at $35 to $40.
  6. Some newer posters seem to be quit slanderous now that Herbst isn't the coach.
  7. That's the nice thing about this hire. He has a track record of getting recruits and results to a small town in the middle of nowhere in Aberdeen SD, similar to Grand Forks. He doesn't appear to be afraid of a challenge. Leaving an established team at the top of it's game. He probably hopes he can build a program at UND and see if there's another jump after that in his future. He's taking a risk. Kudos to Sather.
  8. Looking at the picture, now I know why Bill Chaves hired him. #baldbrothers
  9. Tom Miller reviews the Paul Sather hire as the next head coach for UND Men's Basketball. (9 minute audio)
  10. Nice way to get a rip in of UND Hockey on a new mens basketball hire thread. Well done!
  11. Northern State is to Mens Basketball as UND is to Mens Hockey. NSU lead D2 in mens basketball attendance. Biggest thing in the town of Aberdeen. About 3,700 fans per game. South Dakota is to Basketball as Minnesota is to Hockey.
  12. You still going to stick around the site now that your guy didn't get hired?

    Auto racing, like many subcultures, are hard to understand if you're not apart of it. The largest sports venues in the United States aren't football stadiums but race tracks. The Grand Fork Race Track averages between 3,000-6,000 fans per race. It has often been named as one of the top tracks, if not the top track, in the country. In a week, 18 time winner of the Monster Energy Nascar Cup Series, Kasey Kahne, will be racing in Grand Forks, along with a sold out crowd to watch. He races in the World of Outlaws Sprint Car series. They just had a race this Monday in Indiana. The guy who won that race on Monday was Kyle Larson, the guy who won Nascar's All Star race two weeks ago.

    By average attendance, dirt track racing is probably the third most popular sport in Grand Forks. Right behind UND football and hockey.
  15. Lots of hockey championships with the Fighting Sioux logo.

    Herald went down the crapper ever since Forum Communications bought it.

    New Coach?

    Tiffin is my pick.
  18. The Miami Redhawks have a trademarked and copyrighted name of The Brotherhood owned solely by the hockey team. They claim: If the UND hockey team wants to have the same thing informally known as the Sioux, I'm not going to cry about inclusiveness. I'm not going to cry if a former Fighting Sioux hockey player has a fun poke at the current nickname he probably doesn't like. I'm not going to cry about a former Fighting Sioux hockey player and current coach clicking a like button on a website. I'm going to realize there will always be people that complain about people who "can't move on." I'm going to realize there will always be people who don't want to move on. I can accept both for who they are.
  19. He's married to a Grand Forker.
  20. I don't think its going to seem that big in person. It's not even as tall as the old one.
