    Players is a notable absence from the list.  That place was always hopping.

    Yup, I remember going there to do the trivia.  Another notable absence, in my eyes, is the John Barleycorn.  I'm not sure how long that was open though?

    As what a tight end? I didn’t think it sounded like he had much for wheels. 

    I'm not sure.  Just curious if he had the skill set to be a Slash type player (play at a few positions)?  I'd like to see him earn the starting position.  But as FlinFlan says, the QB room is getting pretty crowded.  If Trey Feeney becomes the guy everyone is thinking he may, I'm curious if Vaughn or other current QB's could play a different position.

    I really like what Boltman brings to the team.  Again, I 'm not sure of Vaughn's skill set other than what I read here.  So maybe he doesn't fit the mold of what Boltman can do.

    I love Feeney's tape and I agree with everyone that Schuster is our QB this spring, but let's not forget about Quincy Vaughn. Huge frame, can run, big arm.....

    I like the prospect of what Vaughn could potentially become.  From what I've heard, he needs to improve accuracy.  I would love to see him at QB but any chance he turns into a Boltman 2.0?

    I checked out the roster and I counted 13.  Maybe they updated it. 

    I was looking on the app.  Went to the website and see it’s 13.  Thanks.

    Looks as though Hart was named captain.  There season starts January 22nd/23rd with a non conference series at NDSU.  I was looking at their roster and it seems to be a bit low on numbers.  Eleven players listed.  Is that due to a couple of gals leaving/being dismissed for their controversial tik tok video?  Was there not enough time to bring in any replacements?

    Odds of a DAE reunion with Jones?

    Teams he's been in contact with, apparently.  Also University of New Mexico.

    North Dakota transfer De’Sean Allen Eikens tells me he’s been in talks with these schools thus far. UAB, South Alabama, Cincinnati, Cal Poly, New Orleans, Northern Arizona, UNC Greensboro, Illinois State, Morgan State, Rice, Morehead State, Northern Kentucky, IUPUI, NJIT.

    I haven't seen this posted here, but EGF is losing a restaurant and my favorite place for pasta.

    Mamma’s Friends & Family,
    This is incredibly hard for us, but we have decided to give up our lease in the Riverwalk Mall and close as of 3/1/2021. We are so grateful for the past year and a half of our ownership and the 10 years of love we had for this place that inspired us to take this on. No one could’ve prepared us for a global pandemic in the first 9 months of owning a restaurant, but the love and support this community showed us helped us to keep going and trying our best! Thank you to our loyal customers that have kept us going as long as possible.
    We will continue to do DoorDash Delivery and Car Side pick up through the month of January and reevaluate in February if we will continue just takeout until March or if we will open our dining room.
    Our current hours are 4:00pm-8:00pm Monday-Saturday.
    We hope this isn’t goodbye forever just goodbye for now. We appreciate your continued support!

    Indiana State opts out of Spring Football.  Wonder if this ends up adjusting UNDs schedule (even though ISU Blue isn't on the schedule, the other school will have to adjust)

    I’m more worried about how many more teams will opt out.  I sure hope the spring season isn’t canceled.

    UND hockey team anthem kneeling

    Sounds as if people's disapproval is misplaced.  

    If innately disrespecting the anthem was so offensive, why has our fanbase continually yelled “Sioux” at the end it with absolutely no repercussions?  It’s the same thing.  People are making a statement at the expense of the anthem.  

    If it's an issue of politics, just say so.  Don't butter it up with the anthem disrespect stuff that our fanbase has been engaged in for 40+ years now.  Then again, if you don't want politics in sport, perhaps we shouldn't play the anthem at all.    

    At risk of repeating myself...my thoughts only of course...

    I never liked the home of the Sioux during the anthem and never participated.  The difference here is the fans are paying customers who spend their money and have freedom of speech.  These athletic programs are being supported by these fans through donations and contributions.  Monetarily, the athletes are not invested.  Other than the non-scholly players.  Can the kids kneel for the anthem.  Sure.  Will it upset a portion of the fanbase, absolutely.  Will it affect the bottom line of UND athletics, I’m guessing it will.  Will the AD/coaches support the “biting the hand that feeds you?”

    im with the crowd that will stop following/donating/supporting UND teams that do this.  Already stopped following professional sports.  The fans gave athletes their platform and they can just as easily take it away.

    A freedom a good number of individuals on this forum think should not be afforded collegiate student-athletes.

    They have the freedom to do so.  Many are upset that they are using a platform, that is supported by those who don't agree with their ideology.  Why would I, or others, want to continue to monetarily support an athletic department, who allows students to demonstrate against my/our personal beliefs?  Again, on their own time and own dime, have at it.  I'm offended by them kneeling during the anthem, that alone, based on their logic, should stop them from kneeling.  If someone is offended, it shouldn't happen right?
