I don't mind paying an annual fee to get my Sioux sports fix. Hockey has been nice, but it will be that much better to watch MBB, WBB and FB as well.

Great News!!!

Hanson heading to UND An answer to some who have questioned....

Rodriguez Jr. formally sentenced to death for killing Sjodin

Typical. I provide all that description and they change the webcam view to point out at the open water and make everyone cold.

A little something to warm the folks up north. Penascola Beach Webcam The view, at least for this morning webcam position, shows in the foreground, the bridge from Gulf Breeze onto Pensacola Beach. The intercoastal waterway is nice and calm. The bridge in the background goes from Gulf Breeze to Pensacola. The Gulf Power building is shown in the background. Keep warm.

I have no idea why I'm responding to a post regarding NDSU recruits, but I just had to interject on the "preferred walk-on" issue. I found this as the first Google hit. More local football players opting to be preferred walk-ons The article is in reference to BCS programs, but I'm sure it is the same for FCS teams.

I thought the same thing you did Sioux-cia. This all sounds a little too convenient.

Impressive looking bunch of kids. Can't wait to see them in a Sioux uniform.

The Damage Control piece mentioned in the post above. Damage Control at Dartmouth

American Indians Should Boycott Racist Colleges and Universities

Hmmm, that a tough decision.

Although I've been an FSU fan for years, I can't recall a year where at least one starter is declared academically ineligible for the bowl game after the end of the first semester.

So if said DII school sets their academic standards at our above the DI level, they should be exempted from the probationary years?

I'm sure that it was tough decision, but he felt that NDSU was a better fit for him. Best of luck to him.

Any last minute suprises coming? I'm looking forward to seeing the final list of signees.

Unfortunate. In watching the video, attached to the link at Wisconsinpreps. he looks like a talented kid.

Getting this thread back where it is supposed to be... Top-five finish now in Mavericks’ sights Not if the Sioux have anything to say about it. I'm anxious for Friday night. I didn't know that UND was considered to be Minn. St.'s biggest rival.

I got an email from a friend in GF this morning saying he is thankful there is no wind as the temperature itself is cold enough today without adding the wind to it. I remember being thankful once like that. I was in Bismarck one morning in December of 1983 and got up to -40 degrees and thought it wasn't bad because of the lack of wind.

Boy am I stepping into it today. MplsBison, I was trying to say that my hypothesis was probably worth nothing, not your thoughts on Veldman. Maybe I should stop posting until I get caught up on sleep.

If you read further up the thread, MplsBison said I wasn't trying to contrive anything out of this. I was simply hypothesizing given what MplsBison stated. Take it for what is worth. Which is probably nothing.

I agree that UND would have had a better chance 5 years ago, but I also have the view that the longer it takes Veldman to commit, the better chance UND has. If it was strictly going to a team that was playoff eligible, NDSU would be a slam dunk and he would have already committed.

I thought the same thing, but I would have assumed that Barta was making informed statements and not just using his own opinion in this matter. Here is the link to the Herald story.Wisconsin says no, after all. Your link doesn't jive, Matt.

You're right. My mind was on last season.

Wow. Talk about a collapse. I walked away from the computer when the Sioux were up by 15, as I thought they had it won. Looking at the bright side, at least they got the loss to SCSU out of the way before regionals.
