    Yes, China has historically been very bad and the US started to make strong inroads in moving away from Hydrocarbons. But China has made a commitment to change i.e. electric vehicles, solar, wind etc. while the US under Trump has begun to abandon many programs in favor of the oil companies and coal. Many US companies are not following in line with that and continue to work on reducing emissions and renewable energy.  Unfortunately the administration isn't in that camp. Sorry, I guess this is political.

     

    Very.

  2. Energy Department to Invest $36 Million in Enhanced Oil Recovery Program at the University of North Dakota

     

    Quote

    The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office (HGEO) today announced the selection of a new project with $36 million in federal funding for the University of North Dakota’s Energy & Environmental Research Center to advance the commercial deployment of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies in the Bakken shale formation. 

     

  3. Chavez didn't make this decision in a vacuum.  I am sure that the folks at Twamley were very involved, not just because they are dropping two programs, but they are dropping below 16 total.

  4. This is the official announcement this morning from UWF... Built for What’s Next

    Quote

    Beginning in Fall 2026, UWF will compete in the Atlantic Sun Conference as a full multi-sport member and the United Athletic Conference as a football-playing member. This move is about more than athletics. It's about amplifying the complete college experience for our students, strengthening community partnerships, and positioning Northwest Florida as a destination for top talent. Our new stadium, Division I competition and enhanced campus culture create the foundation for continued growth while preserving the authentic relationships and rigorous academics that define UWF.

    I was fortunate enough to be going to UND for two of these 1980 and 1982.  Magical time with beating su in football three out of four years and something like a 35 home winning streak in men’s basketball during My four years.

    I, too, was at UND during that time frame.  Kermit's luck guides our puck.  The battles against Wisconsin were epic.

    And lots of other schools with their hands out.

    Florida does have more than it's share of millionaires, but also has a number of large established universities.  So the money gets spread out a bit.  UWF has only been around since 1963 and has really only grown a lot in the last 20-25 years.  UWF was NAIA until 1994 and have only had football since 2016.  They won the D2 football national championship in 2019.

    How big is their commitment to D1 football?   UND type commitment or Murray State type?   The last thing FCS needs right now is more Ne'er Do Wells.   Same thing can be said about D1 basketball except you can't use Murray State as an example, they seem competitive in BB.    How successful were they in D2 athletics?

     

    Fairly successful.

    Feel like this tournament has been fairly easy to predict so far based on roster composition and SOS. Only 2 games I didn't have a great read on were Quinnipiac-Providence College and Penn State-Minnesota Duluth upcoming. 

    I went for the Minnesota State upset in my predictions. Blew that one.
