    Noticed that as well, they yet don't realize the good football team we have? Best performance of season and even with all our injuries. This team is improving tremendously every week, tons of credit to the coaches! I would also give the student section somewhat similar credit, getting better as the season goes on!

    Just left the Hawks Nest, Bought 7 more tickets for relatives that live in town. Ticketmaster is stopped selling at 10:00 AM, have to get tickets at game. Lots of buzzz over there already!

    If you're on the fence, bring the fence with you. I've seen lot's of fans bring part of a fence to a football game over the years. BIG GAME 4 UND.

    I mentioned this in another thread, but applies more so here. Maybe for us, WH offsets MH for Title IX and there's no real other easy way of doing that. With that concept, the rest of the sports would have to balance except for maybe taking into consideration some profit from hockey. That may be a good thing. Most U's don't have hockey and they make their athletic department work with the other sports. So how do we make that work with the other sports, isn't that what Pres. Kennedy is trying to do?

    There's more going on here than attendance at these sports. Maybe for us, WH offsets MH for Title IX and there's no real other easy way of doing that.

    lucky some alumni foot the bill for the building so men's hockey could foot their bill

    Yes, hockey team was in Maine last Homecoming, my recollection is that in recent years it has been the norm to have a home hockey game on Homecoming Saturday. That should help FB attendance, and also some beet farmers are finishing up (they've had good weather). The big card though is that UND football is getting the buzzzz and therefore more fans will show up!

    After the Athletic Department's annual income from sports, take the cost (let's say one year prorated out of the life of a facility) of constructing sports buildings (minus the donations received to help build them); and costs of: facilities maintenance and preventive maintenance, rent in some cases, scholarships and FCOA (less donations), modernization, utilities, insurance, police protection, support staff, parking, equipment, uniforms, and on and on, add in athletic department offices and personal, coaches and support staff, and whatever else there could be, is it even possible to break even in a year? Are there other donations involved?

    I feel the fever of a winner! This thread is getting good. We need to fill the Hawks Nest this weekend and WIN!

    If Pres. Kennedy would of went through this taught process, he wouldn't need the IAC, and had it all figured out. Having said that, you bring up a very good point which may be one of the many reasons to keep WH.
  12. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    You get an "A" for today, that is a good one and valid. There many be a combination of many reasons used to not let the IAC at women's hockey.
  13. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    There has to be a big reason for not letting the IAC have the women's hockey coach come in and beg for his job.

    Mentioned this B4. The Raplh owns the building and manages the building, not the soil. UND get's the building after the 30 years and with that the Ralph management dissloves. The sport teams are UND's. There has to be some kind of an agreement to make all this work, which seems to be kept from the public. I've heard from the beginning that this building was built to house UND men's and women's hockey. We didn't even have women's hockey yet. Getting ride of women's hockey may not even be an option for 14+ years. It does help with Title IX.

    That's great, now that's how one gives credit to UND and the Big Sky as a whole.
  16. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    That doesn't say much for the Big Sky as a whole. We apparently don't give ourselves much credit, wonder why pollsters don't?
  17. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    You're from the wrong school to understand.
  18. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    Home base in some of the playoffs? That would energize our fans and fill the Alerus!
  19. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    We've had close games, but we are improving! This team may not gel (as the saying goes), because they should continue to improve, even if they get in the playoffs. This is the type of team that can continue to improve through next year, helping the Big Sky be a repereable conference
  20. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    12,000 Hawk fans and the students stick it out!
  21. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    Playoff game like that would be huggge! That would really energize the UND fans!
  22. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    I also know a lot of Bison fans, just that these last years have pretty much all receiving on the ribbing. I didn't forget the game in Fargo last year, and they remind me. It just would be nice the have another shot at them.
  23. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    Winning definitely helps with the fan following. I would say the fans are mostly their but become much more interested with success. The cow college success has hurt our support. I can't wait for the time that we beat them again! Maybe we get a shot at them in the Playoffs! And Oh, this is not a hockey only U!
  24. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    Start it out with a win!
  25. BarnWinterSportsEngelstad
    UND hockey is #1, sure they just won their 8th Natty!!!!!!!! There is a huge fan base following hockey. UND has a large fan base that follows football (many of which are also hockey fans), which is coming alive and growing as they are winning. Now you put UND and some of the Big Sky teams in FBS and you might have to change the "Don't worry".
