That's probably what he's trying to find out. I'm sure not every open coaching position is open right now.

Maybe Jones wants a big FU to UND for not signing extension and is shopping around.

5% of the state budget for all those colleges combined. Where will that five percent go next time then. The revenue will go somewhere...Instead of supporting the small North Dakota town economy and educating people, it'll be used to help Fargo grow using more LSS (that's 4 U oxbow;)? Mayville would probably immediately go into a recession. Less immediate quality of life for those residents who enjoy watching a local college football game outdoors in October. Count a business or four to close. Are you for the closing of the GFAFB also to save a few bucks?

Make Hyslop Great Again!

So pretty much what NDSU is doing with their new arena.

The state of North Dakota has more money now that it has ever had...its' not some 60+ year old colleges in small towns that's the issue. "These colleges" account for about five percent combined of the states budget. The economic benefit of hiring these teachers and educating people in the state is some of the best money the state can spend.

And good luck getting that...the ND Legacy Fund since inception is at 2.8%....so they'd probably need about $60 Million (and you'd have to find more money to keep up with inflation).

Does that even happen? "Here's a contract of no matter how crappy we think you're doing we can't send you down."?

Told ya all Faison was The Man!

Maybe that's why they cut womens hockey, time to convert those locker rooms. Those "napping couches" in the hangout area just isn't cutting it.

Oddly, I've also had that thought. I'm surprised there isn't a massive attached luxury building for them there yet. They already have their own on demand chef.

And to add to this perfectly timed practice: A coach probably invited them for the last ever practice at UND.

No, just encouraging calls to his employer to let them know "how you feel" about him on his personal twitter for "not covering the whole story" in 140 characters and being "biased by not reporting numbers." You want a full in depth knowledge on an issue read the newspaper. You want small tidbits of information or how someone personally feels about something; follow them on twitter. You want to get "both sides of the issue" on twitter? Follow more people. Don't get upset at The Daily Show when they don't go in-depth reporting either.

Heard on the radio this morning something to the effect of a coach told one of the recruits women's hockey could be cut.

Looks like another rebuilding year at UND.

Playing a little devils advocate, one could argue he only has a personal account and maybe likes it that way? His handle is his last name afterall. Siouxsports'ers complained about jayson h using his undsid twitter for a lot of nonwork stuff...well now here we complain about a personal twitter for too much work related stuff?

Sounds like a lot of money but North Dakota has been spending that about every eight months recently.

I have to wonder. People knew the hockey program was going to be cut. It was no small secret to certain people....and then UND flies out a already committed recruit the same day and even has an odd hockey practice a few weeks after its season ended also on the same day...someone with sour grapes wanted to make UND look bad? "Quick take a picture of us and post it to twitter."

Will there be any money left over to "invest" with the cutting of these two sports? Or is it okay now we can pay our bills?

Save a program because it produces olympians? Nah.

Definately official bye bye women's hockey.

Shanks, McDermott, assistant coaches. They could have been on a tear if they were able to keep people in the program longer.

Who's going to take summer school this year?....need to know who the future early departures will be.

Can't believe they don't have two cameras on each blue line. If they can take away a goal because of it it's as bad as not having a camera pointing at the goal line.

So your telling me the Big Ten is one step above Atlantic Hockey.
