UND-1

Fullerton has stated that he would not want to have 16 teams because you wake up one morning and 8 of them have broken off and formed their own conference.

Kid looks like a good pickup! He still is getting FBS interest so it will probably be an ongoing thing through January but at least he has made UND his FCS team to commit to.

Thank you. The operative word there is "upgrade".

So you think that the Alerus Center chose the turf with no significant input from UND? UND is in charge of their brand and had to have selected the fonts, etc. I highly doubt the commission was micro-managing the turf design and whether or not end zones could be a different color. NDSU doesn't own the Fargodome but they have a massive logo at midfield. The city of Fargo had to have gotten permission to use that logo on their turf.

Exactly. It appears that the administration at USD actually took more than 10 minutes to approve the design for their turf. Red end zones, logos in the end zone and at mid-field. Red sidelines. That pops when you walk into the dome and see it. Plain green with zero contrast does not. This is embarrassing. I would love for Jayson Hajdu or somebody to please explain why they completely avoided any attempt at creativity with their turf (I know he probably had nothing to do with it but he works there and is on here). Change the tone of the greens every ten yards, black end zones, logos in end zones, etc. Anything!

Interesting that USD had the ability to put some color and actual thought into their field. UND chose the default selection in the turf-design program.

Exactly. Ridiculous how the grinder gets more expensive every year but they shave the ham/turkey the thickness of a sheet of paper. Joke.

He seemed to literally wait until the last minute to leave. Not good for him or the team. I wonder if he saw the official depth chart days before camp and decided then.

That is correct under the assumption that they did not get any other QB's. If you recall, they were flirting with Lance Orender before figuring out that Hanson wanted to come to UND. They were going to make another move for a QB regardless.

I don't know how he could think it would be "his time" when he was benched the year before and pretty much showed nothing during his time on the field. The writing was on the wall when he was benched mid-season.

I am a bit surprised that Bradley wouldn't stick around and fight for the starting spot. He had a good spring and certainly could have gotten a look at it - would have been #2 worst case scenario. Give up a free education for at least another year to go do what? To me it shows alot about his mental makeup and toughness or lack thereof. He has now been to 3 colleges in 3 years.

I have already bought a brand new baseball cap and T-shirt. They look good.

Too big of an opportunity to pass up. I like the way he came on here and explained it, seems like a great kid. Good luck in Madison, Joe.

I heard that same thing, that he had to go on a mission.

Thank you Travis.

What I like is that we are pitted against Wisconsin for a recruit. Tells me we are getting after the right players. Also, for him to be debating a possible walk-on from Wisconsin vs. a walk-on from UND is pretty impressive. Plus him turning down a late, bush league scholarship offer from NDSU to steal him is even better.

I believe Schwarzkopf will be a school-start walk-on.

Josh Morton just tweeted that any Champions Club member gets in free to ALL UND Womens Hockey home games. Just have to join the Champions Club.

How about we worry about ourselves and stop bringing them up.

And on top of that UND pays their womens hockey coach more than their FB coach.

If the team has won the games they are supposed to and have a winning record: Buy. Should be a sellout.

Sell. I think they get two in Montana and Northern Arizona (homecoming). I think Portland State will be around 11,500.

Going the optimistic route and saying Buy to both. Javen Butler is supposedly enrolled this summer so there should be a chance there. From what I have read about the Aarin Smith situation, he is at a juco in Cali and is playing this fall. Last fall was a "grey shirt" type of year. The coaches spoke with his parents at the game when UND played Fresno State last fall so there is still contact. I am buying that he will be in a UND uniform come 2013.

I see Kolpack and Dom just addressed the supposed Poll mixup, again, on their Bison Media Blog today. What is that, 25 times now that they have addressed it?

What is your point? You pasted what I already had, along with other meaningless information.
