I just tried turning on NBC to watch the news in Fargo. CableOne and KVLY\KXJB are still fighting so no CBS or NBC for Fargo viewers with cable. Good thing the Bison football games are over for the year. Shet would have really hit the fan.

I see the Governor of Minnesota has to much time on his hands.

What's the point of the playoffs if the same teams are gonna be playing in the national championship anyways. #1 Alabama vs #2 Oregon.

Do autopsy's usually take this long? Do the police have to release the autopsy?

If UND beat Marquette you can be sure plenty of people would have said it wouldn't have been a "signature win".

Not sure. Mentioned on the radio during the Marquette game. They made it sound like one game.

Lenny is on team discipline.

Last year's attendance was the same as 2007 and higher than the previous three year average that's not much of a decline.

I see it took Nebraska 16 years and the hiring of former Bison coach to make the NCAA tournament.

You would think never being suspended from this site would be a prerequisite for moderation considerations.

UND might be waiting awhile for that signature win. Weber State hasn't beaten a ranked opponent in 14 years. In fact Weber State just helped set an NCAA Division 1 record. Against ranked Oklahoma the largest run every- 39 consecutive points for Oklahoma. It was 49 to 4 at one point.

Anyone know when the last time UND has come back to win a game, say down six after half time? Seems like once UND faces the smallest adversity they never are able to overcome.

Six team fouls already for UND. 9-5 UND.

You don't even know your own age? That would have put you around the age of 24. That mah dnt ad up. But Jake was actually 18.

Don't you want the people to respond after you call them out after every loss?

Recently? Or before construction started? Isn't that what contracts are for. The longer you wait for phase 2 the higher the construction costs.

Was that during the double header days? Wouldn't that be equivalent to attendance now for both combined? And more Friday Saturday games vs Thursday Saturday.

Mediocre? Does Hak have any regular season signature wins? Probably never beat one team ten spots ahead of them in the polls. And he gets two shots at it every weekend. What would Jones record be if he coached Duke basketball that only had 60 teams of which half would be mid majors?

You would sure think so. They didn't just finishing transitioning from d2. Let's start a new motto around here. ButtNDSU

Brian Jones and Dave Hakstol have something in common. Neither was able to win their conferences post season tournaments the last two years.

So far so good then? UND has only been in the Big Sky two years: has improved every year, never finished below 3rd, and was in the conference title game last year. It took basketball rich, #1 school sport, 7,000 fans a game; Weber State 7 years between NCAA tournament appearances before they beat UND last year. Then there is also the high expectations of the storied Montana Griz basketball program. Then there is Montana State trying to keep up with the storied D1 basketball program of Montana who hasn't sniffed a NCAA tournament appearance for about 20 years. UND isn't playing Morningside and Augustana anymore (Not that UND was tearing up D2 before leaving).

Understood. But when I wrote that last night I didn't want to imply UND could make march madness and win a game. I don't see that happening. It was just to point out crazy things happen in sports and one game usually doesn't mean much (until tournament time at least). I see UND probably finishing 4th or lower in the Big Sky this year. Then by all means we can have the discussion, but until then enjoy the journey.

Here was my reply last night. If a coach was gonna get fired after every bad game. Every coach would be fired. I'm not a proponent of Jones, but i'm not an opponent of Jones either. See where the season shakes out and go from there. He still hasn't finished below 3rd in the Big Sky conference yet.

Games like these make a guy change his tune about Coach Jones. But last year NDSU got blown out by UND and went on to win a March Madness game. So what's a person suppose to think.

0-8 UND three point attempts.
