If part of the reason for taking the game against Texas Tech is to get the UND name out there, it is already having an affect. From Lubbock to College Station to Dallas... UND to get $350,000

You had to go and throw facts into the thread, didn't you.

Count me as a Sioux fan excited to have a two year contract with Idaho. It gets the Sioux name out in the west, which will likely help with recruiting. Also, I can see Sioux fans in the SeaTac metro making the trek to the games.

Looking at the numbers that have been used thus far on the roster, I see a few occurrences where two people have the same number, yet there are still some unused numbers. #4 obviously is Chappell's number and probably won't get used this year, but #16 is unused. Is this number being "saved" for someone?

Dan, the last line of your post is the key. We'll have to see how it works out next year. It is 13 months away. That is a full season of experience for the underclassmen. It is a full year for the coaches to get some games under their collective belts. A full year of recruiting for more and better talent. A year from now UND will likely have Chappell back in a Sioux uniform. A lot can happen in a year. Additionally, it is the opener for the Red Raiders. They may not be fully prepared, take the game lightly, etc. Who knows?? It is still year away. But, it does add a little WOW factor to the upcoming schedule and may help to lure some recruits who may have been looking elsewhere. And another plus is that it has the Bison fans in a tizzy.

The football promo video on FightingSioux.com is pretty good. No cheesy announcer.

I agree Faison has done a good job using his contacts to get a game like this so soon into the transition. Hopefully, he will be able to leverage the hockey program and get some games, too. Wouldn't it be nice to play Boston College in something besides hockey. I have cousins in Lubbock who went to Texas Tech. I'm sure their dad, a UND grad, will get them all out to the game.

No wonder I missed it the first time through. As a matter of fact, I still have the roster up from my first view and his name is not it. Thanks92,96.

The 2008 roster is up. I don't see Bamba or Reynolds on it. I guess this is an indication that Bamba will be red-shirting. I wonder if this is just a preliminary roster and Reynolds will be/could be added later? Sorry, I missed Bamba's name the first time. It is on there #18.

I agree. Coach Mussman had down to earth type answers to the questions, instead of the typical cliche-like answers you may find in such an interview. Good luck coach. Looking forward to a great season of Sioux football. Go Sioux!!!

Bite your tongue. I love the creativity it takes to come up with one everyday.

Sica, it looks as though someone read your post. Let's hope he doesn't stop now and continues with the whole thing.

ND governor: Univ. has share in defense contract

UND volleyball: Sioux to have new coach To go from being a VB coach at a school entering Division I to a position in another school's admissions department, seems very odd. Seems like someone's heart wasn't in the job. I wish her well, but

Has anyone heard if Bamba will be red-shirted this year? I just watched his hightlight reel again from last year and he looks like a very exciting player. I can't wait for the season to start.

Cuil came online today. The format is completely different from what search engines have been in the past. At first glance it seems to operate more like a sophisticated program, with drill downs, than other search engines. Here is an example of what it looks like for University of North Dakota. Pretty neat.

I can see the loss of these two men being a concern as to where UND ends up in the Great West, but what does that have to do with SUU? Are you saying that UND will finish last and that is why you don't see SUU at the bottom?

I like the content, but I agree about the voice.

Ms. Irle also has extensive experience in the S&D world, as the coach at both Fresno State and Tulane. I'm sure she has plenty of connections for scheduling and conference membership. Daniella Irle Profile
