It wasn't a comeback, it's a unique perspective to my reminder that UND is far and away a better school. It was in lieu of citing the law/med schools, larger endowment, etc. The only people who are watching the nickname controversy are those directly affected by it, i.e. live in the region or follow college hockey/Big Sky conference. John Oliver did more damage to the state with his segment than the nickname ever could.

UND is a space grant institution with the top public aviation program to boot. NDSU is an ag school that most people outside the region were unaware of before their JV dynasty began. Wearing a sioux ball cap on flights in my early 20s got me invited into a few cockpits and plenty of shout outs from pilots. Athletic success is fleeting, reputation is forever.

2015-2016 College Hockey (non UND Hockey)
AlphaMikeFoxtrot replied to cberkas's topic in Men's Hockey
Rats are always the first to abandon a sinking ship. His brother transferred from Tech to Niagara right before Tech turned it around with Mel. -
Both games stream for free here: http://nsnsports.net/colleges/university-of-vermont/ Watched a little bit of Friday's game against Omaha on my phone during my commute, decent camera work all things considered. Muted it so can't comment on play by play.

He said it was a few years ago and alluded to the player decommiting/going MJ. Tommy Vannelli or Jack Dougherty are my guesses, but it's obviously just speculation. The latter mentioned more than once he grew up a Sioux fan. Some of my beer league buddies here in Portland are big Winterhawks fans, they are ecstatic to have him.

not Mismash....right?

2015-2016 College Hockey (non UND Hockey)

It boggled my mind that Western Michigan didn't get votes this week but Ferris State (who they beat and tied), Wisconsin and Brown did. After beating #10 BGSU tonight that won't be the case next time. They looked good in the clips I watched, and I'm glad to see them piling up non-conference wins. -
Sioux Survivor Game #2 2015-2016

Troll is overused on the same level as hipster or bro, but there really is no better way to describe them. Maybe if Duluth had a fanbase they could interact with like-minds instead.

Hard to sound like Hammy without the sanctimonious undertone and insider humble-brags. Not quite as annoying as the Duluth trolls but certainly up there.

ICE BREAKER TOURNEY - UND vs. LSSU / Maine
AlphaMikeFoxtrot replied to AZSIOUX's topic in Men's Hockey
No video is easier to swallow so long as there is footage for ND hockey with BB. Midco appears to be in und's pocket with some pretty blatant recruiting shots. Clips of attractive young women at the game and framing the scenes with Berry with championship banners is no accident. Through these doors gets more views but this show is great for us armchair coaches. -
Ladue, Thompson gone for sure. Poolman and Stecher, I'll guess one of them is gone. Schmaltz likely, Johnson possibly. Boeser could be one and done. Maybe early departure is a better phrase than depletion since the senior class isn't big this year. Then again, we reload rather than rebuild. I shouldn't be trying to predict next season before this one even starts. This big of a freshman class has me worried about Wisconsin syndrome though.
-
This team is going to be hit with once in a decade depletion after this season. If they don't make the tournament the regional will be a bust, granted not as bad as others.

NORTH DAKOTA vs. Manitoba - Exh Sat 7:07
AlphaMikeFoxtrot replied to AZSIOUX's topic in Men's Hockey
Let the lineup speculation begin: Cagguila Schmaltz Pogo Johnson Boeser Chyzyk Simonson Gersich Janatuinen Wilkie Olson Gardner Sanderson Not even gonna try with D since I'd have to look up righty or lefty for everyone, but if I recall correctly it's not a 4/4 split -
They refunded me the $8 as well. Immediately spent at the nearest taco truck.
-
Big cities is the tie that binds his remaining schools, although BC is kinda in the suburbs. I bet DU gets him. When ASU gets good and more Pac 12 schools add hockey Denver will take the biggest recruiting hit. It's the most appealing school to west coast kids who spurn the dub.

I was charged the same, and forwarded them an email from last month where they quoted 81.95, politely asking for clarification about the discrepancy. No reply yet. NCHCtv@neulion.com is the customer service email.

University of North Dakota Hockey 2015-16 season
AlphaMikeFoxtrot replied to Frozen4sioux's topic in Men's Hockey
guys assumed out: Gardner/Janatuinen (sp) ? Sanderson Gornall Chartrand I'm curious who sits between Shaw and Wolanin. D has more lefties than righties too -
wouldn't be a shocker to see Notre Dame in the nacho in the next few seasons. this seems like a precursor. ASU/Mankato/Bowling Green would all love to keep it an even number.

For away, out of conference games, what do we know about viewing? Vermont streams their games free on their Youtube channel. Good out of conference opponent choice. Michigan State might get picked up by Big Ten Network, otherwise do they stream? Icebreaker tourney? Bemidji State? I know the latter is on Prairie Public or something like that, but what about online? Those are the only unknowns. Not bad compared to where we were a few years ago.
-
Did anyone else share this yet? Happened over a week ago.
-
I emailed them; renews the same date you originally bought it last with the credit card on file in the amount of 81.95. I have a charge of some amount less than 2 dollars pending from them at the moment as well.

Is North Dakota a Hockey Coaching Pipeline?
AlphaMikeFoxtrot replied to Goon's topic in Men's Hockey
Charlie Burgraff is head coach at Bethel. He was also assistant coach for Gophers women for a while. He was my little league coach in middle school. Great guy and easily the best coach I ever had in sports. Didn't live vicariously through his son in the least and made sure everyone was having fun.
