Agreed, but don't count out Tim Bergstraser (Denver). That team was fine tuned today, with multiple guys in double digits. They just beat a good NDSU team on the road and then us. He started with very little, brought with him a couple of D2 guys What I saw today, they can't be ruled out to win the Summit if they play like they have the last couple games, and if they make it to the championship, he's a shoe in IMO.

Yes, Omaha game

LOL... most of the players don't even care much for the coach. They like winning, and they are doing great but they are not fond of the staff.

I watched the ending again this morning. The absolute perfect dime he threw to A3 on the end line out of bounds play at the end was absolutely brilliant.

The 23-24 season was awesome until we lost in the 1st round of the playoffs, which definitely had some coaching flaws. So if you throw all that in, I agree - Lifetime extension now with a key to the City for life!!

Most likely him. He has been videoing A3 since he was in traveling basketball

A3's Dad (A2) is usually very well dressed. Often wears a trench coat and nice black dress shoes. He is a very sharp and a style conscious dresser. There have been other family members at previous games - but not always. I've only seen A3's grandparents (A1) once - both he and his wife had full kelly green sweat suits with A3s picture on them with his name in different areas - made me look twice. The family has a history of being vocal at games and are very much all about A3. A bit over the top on all fronts involving A3, and insufferable would be a good term to describe.

I know Guga is struggling from the FT line, but why play Jones at all at this point. 40% and Guga has brought energy

Unwatchable

I wasn't able to watch the game live today. I see we won, but it looked closer than I would have thought. Should I watch it, or just check the box score and get the jist?

HA. I was thinking the same thing.

Why did Aumer play limited minutes? She seems to be a worker and the culture Hutter wants to have, but she only played 11 minutes. She didn’t look hurt. Sad if after 4 yrs with a program your minutes get taken away for the future.

I don't know for sure, but I'm sure they will do an MRI. If there was a lot of swelling, they used to have to wait a few days before the MRI to let the swelling go down, but I'm not sure if technology has made that a mute point now. Once they have the MRI done, they will most likely have to have someone read it and confirm or deny. Probably a day or two at the earliest - a week at the latest. Just my guess however.

Well, Marley was in street cloths - again. I hadn't heard he had an injury that lasts this long. I would assume (or hope) the coaching staff have mentally moved on from him/them. Micah must not have made the trip. It's really too bad too, because both of them are unreal athletically, but it sniffs like there may be some mental maturity things going on.

It was a great win, but the concern amongst the staff is Anderson's injury is possibly an ACL tear. Obviously, they will need an MRI to confirm, but that result would be a blow. I certainly hope not.

TAKE JONES OUT. 40% FT

I'm curious about this. If this is true - which I guess I lean towards the possibility, logically then wouldn't that mean that every level below the top levels would be watered down? Is the NSIC down as well? D3 also down? I don't follow those levels close enough to know.

It really is. Why is this? Is this the result of the change in the portal and NIL or is it just an anomaly and it will get better. Maybe a little of both.

You might be right. If that plays out, how long of an extension does UND offer? I would imagine Sather wouldn't be to interested in a 1yr deal, maybe not even a 2yr deal - Unless the $$ was too good to turn down.

You can stream it from anywhere that has internet.

Gotta have this one. 3 road games in a row, St Thomas is a very tough win in their new 175 million dollar arena. We need to beat the 0-5 team in the conference. There will be a masked avenger in the game tonight!

I feel bad for BJ, he has really had injury issues since leaving UND.

I think you just nailed the reason for the thread. What you said is all true. That said, 7 years of history and underperformance is also true. Sather's contract is done at the end of this year - thus the Conundrum - do you extend multiple years based on a current 4-2 in the conference, or do you move on based on the 7 years of history. Obviously, the remaining games may weigh heavily on that decision.

99-48. Unfortunately, the game was never as close as the score indicates.

This is hard to watch.
