Lotysz will not be coaching for the Sioux this season. Just heard him on KNOX. Sounds like something about DI rules for volunteers.

Wisconsin, along with Iowa, reversed their stance on that policy, at least as it pertains to UND, when the settlement was announced. They both said they would consider playing us after the agreement was made.

I sure hope so. I'm a long-time New England Patriots fan . I hope that UND does to USD what the NY Giants did to the Patriots this year. Lose in the regular season, but win in the playoffs.

Probably because it has never been a big deal to anyone to win on USD's floor. If you read the release, it noted that USD is a "long-time rival" of UND's and they've been playing for over 100 years. I don't know what more you want. I'm sorry that UNO has given UND more competitive games over the years than USD has, but that is out of our control. St. Cloud is a hockey rival, and to some extent a basketball one, but no more so than USD. SDSU isn't on the radar of many Sioux fans or alums. Obviously UND vs. NDSU has its history as does USD vs. SDSU, so I know you understand that. Personally, I always get excited when UND and USD meet in any sport, I'm sorry that you feel USD is so lowly that you do not. I was in Vermillion last year, and I'll be there again this year.

Agreed. But by the time hockey starts, there are probably only 2 home games left. I always take advantage on days when Hockey and Basketball are played on the same day, It'd be alot of fun to go to a 3:00 or so football game, and then head to the REA for Hockey.

I believe Ralph's gift of the $110 million hockey arena was the biggest gift ever to a University, until Boone Pickens' gift to Oklahoma state surpassed it in 2003 or 2004. There are other posters who may know more of the specifics than me.

I would also like to see a shift toward night games. I know Lennon was against them. The UW-La Crosse site had the game at 5:00, but UND's site has 1:00. I think night games, or very late afternoon games would help attendance, as alot of people have to work or want to spend their Saturday afternoon in the yard before the snow flies. Some fans, like me, travel a fair distance to get to the games. The 1:00 start pretty much blows the entire day for me.

UW-La Crosse game is confirmed for September 13. 5:00 p.m. start. I like that!

Seattle University preparing for Div. I

Although, not a school in transition, there were some interesting articles on independent Chicago St. this weekend. Could Chicago State return to Summit League? Chicago State looking for right fit Payouts that CSU has received for basketball games over the last 2 seasons

The NCC is not an auto-bid conference, but they have been a consistant dominant force in the conference since about 1990. When did these teams you speak of leave again, opening the door for UND to succeed?

The rivalry will heat up when our men's basketball team upsets USD next week in Vermillion, and our women win the NCC Tourney and start celebrating on your floor like your ladies did on ours this season!

The Bracket is out for the NCC tourney. We travel back to Vermillion to play the Yotes. Good luck, men!

The men won over UMD 69-57, to stay out of the NCC cellar. Good job today guys!

The Bracket is out for the NCC tourney. North Dakota will host Minnesota-Duluth on Wednesday. Good luck ladies! I hope we get the opportunity to meet up with the 'Yotes again in Vermillion.

I would be surprised if any incoming freshman end up starting, there is just too much to adapt to from high school, and even more for the Canadian guys. Although, the way Mussman talks, there could be a chance that the redshirt will be pulled from Rosario, Fonseca, and Watkins. Sounds like he could depart from the long standing Thomas/Lennon policy of redshirting by default, except for the cases of very special talents like Dressler and Kleinsasser of course.

I'll try not to contaminate the UND Schedule thread anymore. Carson-Newman was 9-3 in 2004, and made the playoffs..............Just like Winona St. !

I can't believe that you are not building up Montana Tech, and Carson-Newman! An esteemed media-type like you knows very well that both of those teams would have taken Valpo to the woodshed. NDSU's home schedule in 2004 was probably one game better than UND's will be in 2008, but UND's away schedule is what, probably 3 or 4 times better than 'SU's road schedule was?

I agree with all that. The home schedule really looks alot like it has looked over the past several years since UNC, SDSU, and NDSU left the NCC. I think the reason some of us are a little frustrated is because apparently quality teams like McNeese St and Cal Poly have fallen off the schedule, and the South Dakota game being played in Vermillion two years in a row.

Except in Fargo!
