    I always find it funny that NDSU fans in 2003 were mad at UND fans for saying that the Bison would never be able to compete at the FCS level and would not even come close to winning a National Championship.  And, now they are saying the exact same thing about UND football.   

    There were Bison fans in 2003?

    It's not just last night he has 31 road wins since 2008. I don't get why you are so in love with the guy. A lot of people can see how he should be gone but you don't get it. He is not a good coach compared to the other Dakota schools with maybe USD as exception. He can't beat a DII transition team (Omaha). He can't beat a ranked team. You hate hearing about NDSU, well that's what you get by knocking off big time programs while our team goes to OT against Bradley, or loses to Cal Poly or Omaha. Jones has zero count them ZERO signature wins. And you stick up for this guy like he's your best friend. Getting curb stomped in Montana doesn't cool off his hot seat. He had this fanbase getting excited for Reno even if went to the buzzer with Montana that would be a good thing, but getting pounded last night has lost that excitement. You can blame the players and I'm not excusing them but this 31 road win track record of Jones has a lot to do with the loss.

    I mostly agree on Jones and I played high school bball so my opinion means a TON.  But, can we please retire the phrase "curb stomped"

    Agreed on all the recommendations. How about now that they have a mascot, have a hawk 'work' the crowd.  It would keep the kids interest, smiles on peoples faces and at times when the crowd should be noticed, he would be the instigator.  He could give Mark Kalk a run for his money :)   Hell, even though it's so "80s ",  bring back the wave. How about cowbells ( need more cowbells).  Towel waving?  Yes very old timer of me, but it might spark an idea for something else.    The alerus folk need help.  We should send them a intro video for Virginia tech!!!  You want goose bumps???   That will do it.   You will see 80 yr old women acting like 30 yr olds,  literally everyone is involved. Having experienced it live, I can tell  you that you hear the noise with your bones not your ears.  The absolute best thing was the chant back an forth with the opposite bleachers......crazy!!  "LETS GO........HOKIES..........LETS GO........HOKIES......LETS GO........ HOKIES!!!!!  Juiced for the rest of the game.

    I got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell.

    Since atmosphere helps with recruiting, could we move on from 60's and 80's music to something the recruits actually enjoy?

    Yeah let's get some Kanye blaring in there!

    Im going to pull one out of you guys play book---why do you care so much about what NDSU  is and supposedly not doing? You seem to be putting a lot of effort in to trying to dispell

    everything NDSU?(out of your play book again)

    The reason I believe them is because they have never lied to me. Pretty simple ever for you to understand. ( another slight one heres here many times)

    If they gave you a degree indicating your level of education...they lied to you.

    According to a source, Grady is 95% sure he's coming back. If true this is really good news.

    After a solid weekend of UND sports, I log in to see this.  Great news (if true) on a Monday morning.

    As I pointed out before, according to the school's web sites, NDSU already has higher student fees than UND. NDSU is planning to raise them even more. It appears that UND spends more of their fees on athletics and NDSU is going to get close to that number. But that means NDSU is spending more student fees on other parts of the school. Does the total amount of student fees at UND plus the costs of hockey tickets reach the level of total student fees paid by every NDSU student after this increase? Or don't those total student fees count at NDSU because the only thing that matters is what the athletic department gets? Or maybe NDSU fans don't notice what happens with the rest of the school.

    The trolls are just getting desperate on this issue. These facts don't matter because UND charges students (very little) for hockey tix.

    Ndsu is raising student fees to around Und's level.  And und charges students for athletics tickets where ndsu does not.  Oh the hipocracy runs deep here.

    Wrong.  We would be hypocrites if UND raised student fees before the time agreed upon and we did not criticize the administration.  Students are not forced to buy the tickets, however fees are not optional.

    "Months after choosing a new nickname, schools hockey arena sells new order of old nickname clothing."

    I have no problem with it, but let's not pretend ordering clothing was the only way to keep the trademark.

    You are correct in that it doesn't have to be clothing.  But the trademark has to be used on some goods, so it might as well be something that sells.

    Do you know these things, or are you simply accepting what you have heard?

    In order to maintain the trademark, limited sales of trademarked items must be made.

    This is actually the law to maintain a trademark.  Whether it was heard, read, or telepathically communicated does not change things.

    I have no idea why some people are so eager to take the bait from NDSU fans.  Just ignore them.  The mods have repeatedly said they are not interested in banning them, so ignore them and they'll be less likely to post.

    I enjoy trolling them, I'll stop.

    After taking a quick look at Bville, I can't say I blame you for coming over here.  The mouth-breathers over there must be truly taxing.

    I find it interesting that someone who responded to my post 5 minutes after I posted it is questioning my constant monitoring of the board("But it's a UND board and you're an NDSU fan")

    "Would have been a different game if Santiago got more carries" This quote implies the outcome would have been somehow closer if he had more carries. We'll agree to disagree about Santiago's ability to impact the game that day.

     

    How many fan boards do you monitor?  I'm guessing at least 10.

    Okay we get it - once again one has to wonder why you are here - if you want to hear UND fans fawn over how great the FU recruiting class is it's not gonna happen. I have to belleve that if UND was on a similar run to FU that Bison-swille is the last place I would spend my time because I have no need to hear what FU fans think. We are happy with this class, our staff and the direction of our team. Geez it's just sad that so many FU fans need to spend so much time here.

    Their constant need for flattery is a clear sign of an inferiority complex.

    A) I would guess there is a fair amount of schadenfreude after hearing how NDSU's athletic department is flush with cash is a big part of it topped off by the request coming 2 years into a 5 year agreement and the lack of details making it all the more cringe-worthy. And you're incorrect, the students will not be voting on it, the Student Fee Advisory Board makes a recommendation to Bresciani on whether it should be approved or not. There is not a student vote.

    B) Are they really "getting" more money or is it supplementing a different area that is declining for an unknown reason? Are people really upset or just enjoying the show? If the increase is for travel/supplies/equipment as stated (which is absurd that it would almost triple out of nowhere), then I don't see anything to get upset about other than NDSU being really poor at budgeting and making projections.

    C) Lying might be a strong word but at best they are being less than forthcoming and that is not speculation, that is directly from NDSU students (one who was on the board for the 5 year approval just 2 years ago) who grilled the athletic representatives who continued to provide vague answers.

    This is spot on.  Personally, I always enjoy talking about NDSU's lack of integrity.
