UNDhoops

i am also curious why you think there are "all these stupid fake lawsuits." that just isn't based in reality (in north dakota anyway. i can't speak to out of state). also if there truly is a frivolous lawsuit, the person suing could have to pay attorney fees to the other side, which is a pretty good deterrent.

no inside knowledge or anything but just based on reading around and talking to a couple people it sounds like Boschee and Herbst will be among the finalists. Hoping McCollum will as well but I haven't heard much about that.

well the same goes for say homeowner insurance or insurance a business would have. anyway, i think you're arguing for the way things ought to be whereas i am saying how things are, so nevermind.

i don't think you're following what i am saying. say you're driving your car and get into an accident and get sued. your car insurance carrier is going to hire an attorney and also pay out whatever they settle for or get at trial, so you're not paying the premium (which you have to do to be able to have a car) and the costs of the lawsuit.

most of the time they cost an insurance carrier money

i'm genuinely curious why you think this

basically if a jury thinks the person suing is equally at fault to the person getting sued, the person suing cant get any money. also, if the jury says the person suing is say 25% at fault for what happened, that person would only get to recover 75% of the money they otherwise would.

there already is such a thing as comparative fault, so congrats

probably not. my guess is santiago will be used more as a receiver than RB while brady will be a 1st and 2nd down RB, and probably will get goalline work as well.

Sorry to hear the police have arrested you due to talking about the fighting sioux

I think the nickname committee made a huge mistake letting any of the nickname finalists have Fighting in the name

there's probably a good book to be written about how much the focus on a name and logo are hindering the university and its athletic programs

I agree. He’s going to get a lot better job than this one though

this is only since 2001-02, but he's not great in close games

i'm not saying those guys don't exist (and they're getting more prevalent at the mid and low major levels) but coaching isn't like playing where if you're not good right away it probably means you won't ever be (or if you move along really slowly it means you aren't good)

he's not even 40 yet. 3 years as a HS coach, 4 years as a college assistant, and then 5 as a D2 head coach is a perfectly reasonable path.

He had what, 3 good seasons out of 7 at NDSU? And one of those was with Miles' players. And then he took over an Ohio program that had been one of the better mid major programs in the area and borderline ran it into the ground. You could argue he didn't get the support he needed, but he's also not going to get it here. I think he deserves credit for what he did his last two years at NDSU, but then you're banking on those two years being what he is rather than the rest of his career, which id rather not do.

the only name that has been thrown around that I would really be disappointed in would be Saul Phillips so that's who I am expecting

he and Boschee (Jeff) should be the top 2 on any candidate list in my opinion

that would be as unsurprising as it is disappointing

conference tourney odds. UND has about a 10 percent chance of making the title game and under a 2 percent chance of getting the autobid

replacing seales with a better point guard will be a huge boost. the young core is pretty good as well i think.

Jones should be fired immediately for not fouling when NDSU had the ball up 4 inside a minute, and then for taking a two instead of a three on the next possession, especially drawing one up for Seales who you know is going to take a terrible long two if it is there for him

zero chance regardless probably.

weird that his case hasn't been filed yet. same thing happened to geno
