  1. More like you complained about only getting bjs and she said "lucky for you i got a new man now with more money!" Now we just dumped our recent girl cause she's only giving us HJ's on occasion.
  2. Bad teams and years are forgotten, nattys live forever.
  3. That's what siouxfan97 was asking "what u hinting at."
  4. Follow SiouxSports where you'll get Cratters Sports Odds: - 800 Jackson will be named coach +1200 the rest of the field Bookie opens tomorrow.
  5. You put your tinny hat on UND was approached to be in another superconference. Armacost needed big $$$ Had to call KEM She said "Not with Berry. He can't even beat Augustana or even U18 at home!" "I just text Berry to clean out his office!"
  6. People think Chaves ran the department into the ground because football and hockey sucked. People he had no involvement in hiring. Tells me all I need to know about those people. Yes it's not uncommon to open it up externally, not find anyone you feel is more qualified than a current assistant, and eventually hire an assistant coach. Brad Schlossman just wrote about that exact same scenario in today's article! Ha
  7. Firing an underperforming coach and not having an exact replacement lined up is not a "reason for firing an AD." They did the same with football. Fired the coach and found a replacement afterwards. Pretty common practice. We don't know if he "assumed" Hakstol would be interested. He simply asked if he interested in the job once it was vacant. It implies he wasn't ready to just automatically give it to Dane. A smart move.
  8. Well apparently they did it to get Hak. So yeah it would make sense in that case. Some people think they "had their guy" before it started. But by all accounts that's simple not true. Those who know are talking, you can choose not to believe it if you want.
  9. Exactly. And there's really no decent "UND guys." Early junior coaches don't cut it. Schmidt was the easy decision from the start...came down to him an a current assistant. Here not so much, so it should be no surprise if it's Dane Jackson.
  10. You underestimate the Facebook soccer mom crowd & he's such a "nice guy" crowd. One choice is difficult and unknown. The other is the easy button. I think a lot of casual fans would be fine with the easy button and don't wanna "rock the boat." The AD is unlikely to put his neck out on the line for an "unknown, non UND" coach..... Welcome to your new position Dane Jackson!
  11. The second in command on Haks staff didn't get the results we all wanted.... So let's try the third in command! Brilliant!
  12. Dane Jackson would be proof if you hang out in the right circles long enough, there's a good chance your number will likely be called eventually. Waiting 20 years is a long time. I'm not sure that's a pro or a con.
  13. Augustana beat UND this year.
  14. Problem is. Eric Schmidt easy to spot. Garrett Raboin looks like almost every guy walking out of avflight.
  15. And Rydell is one of the biggest donors to UND. I'm sure he's told them yeah anytime you wanna use my plane go ahead.
  16. "We're sending you a nice Piper Cherokee to pick you up." "Who's the pilot?" "UND graduate Kendal Swanson." "I think I'll drive."
  17. The article Brad Schlossman is too scared to write:
  18. To avoid big Scarlett letter of "Fired."
  19. Quitting is blatantly abandoning your responsibility. "Stepping down" is voluntarily leaving and giving up the contract. Of course behind the scenes could be anything ("step down publically but for contract reasons we'll still pay you.") Regardless Berry seemed to want people to know he was fired....otherwise its...."we mutually agreed to part ways." (And still get paid)
  20. He really wanted me to win the bet. List came out today. ✔️ And 20 names! That gives me pretty good odds!
  21. More fun.... ...for those who like to have fun.... You wanna talk real recruiting advantage: Gophers. The state produces the most amount of NCAA players. Biggest city. Biggest school. Biggest fan base. Most money for NIL. There's only like 3 major college hockey producing states. And the other 2 have major competition and spread those players out. Minnesota is the only state with a "monopoly."
  22. By far the best UND head coach in my era: Dean Blais. Was 44 when he was hired at UND. ....to continue our statistics class from the other day. These years are related to what is called a "bell curve."
  23. The "new coach bump" is real and we have seen it with Hakstol and Berry. I theorize it's also part of the reason for the high turnover in the NHL.
  24. If I'm a betting man, Schlossman will release a "Names to Watch" tomorrow, And the next head coach will be on that list.
