They touched on it in the post game last night but it was a great observation. Seales has kind of an old school game, that opposing players these days don't see so often and don't really know how to defend. When he works his way to the free throw line area and takes the mid range jumper. That's rare these days. So many guys either chuck up 3's at every chance or try to take it to the rack. Seales' game mixes it up.

Does the conference get a a tournament credit (money) for winning a play in game?

UND athletics may be facing Summit penalty fees if cutting sports I hope the Summit League holds UND to this stipulation. More ammunition for Women's Hockey to be the first sport to be cut. Or better yet, just stay in the Big Sky.

The attendance was 7700. It was Weber's second biggest draw of the year......

Easily the biggest win for this program in 15 years, maybe more......

It's an 11,000 seat arena.........

I feel like there is some home cooking going on with these refs

My group is going. We have gone every year since it has been at Target Center. The venue isn't great, but I have been to plenty of less than stellar sports venues. We go to support our favorite hockey team and enjoy a long weekend in the big city. We are afforded the comforts of a world class facility for every home game, so it is no sweat off my back to tolerate the Target Center for two days. I guess it is more about the overall experience/weekend getaway for us. Never got a chance to go to the Final Five, but was at The X the last time UND was in the Frozen Four there, (2009?). The X is definately a nicer facility, but again the venue is not a deal breaker for me.

Tough time of year for me but I hope to be in Vermillion too this year. Also hoping to go to the SUU game in Cedar City too this year.

Soccer, Volleyball, and Women's basketball all have access to some pretty amazing facilities

Hogwash And hogwash again!

I don't recall if there was an official statement. Just remember saying they weren't bringing it to Fargo in 2015. I thought the bigger excuse was because it was a non-conference game, but I could be wrong.

Clearly? NDSU is clearly ahead of us in football, and SDSU is clearly ahead of us in women's basketball. That is all.

As I begin to come to grips with this ominous move to the SumValley, I admit I have taken an interest in the discussion regarding rivalry trophies with NDSU and USD. When we joined the Big Sky, I was hoping a trophy game could be established with Montana St, perhaps something regarding the oil industries of the two states. Obviously that ship has sailed, but I do think trophy games are fun between intrastate and interstate rivals. As far as the Nickel Trophy, I thought it should have been up for grabs in 2015, and I think it should be in 2019 and then every year after. I am with those in the camp that it is a replica of a legal tender U.S. coin, and it is in no way tied to the NCAA Nickname Settlement. The fact that it doesn't have UND's current logo on it is irrelevant. It also does not have NDSU's logo on it. With USD and the Sitting Bull Trophy, that trophy was retired due to pressure from the PC crowd 22 years ago. There is no way that is coming back, but I would like to see something re-introduced. I thought it should have been done when we both moved to DI but that never happened. Just an idea, perhaps something revolving around this little tidbit taken from wikipedia: Something along the lines of the "The First Dakota Trophy"? Just a thought anyway.................

Just to keep things a little more organized, I moved all the recent posts about the potential of cutting sports to its own thread in the "Other Sports" forum. Cutting Sports: Round 2

Remind me again what the minimum number of sports are required for being in DI........... That's how many we should have, and women's hockey should not be one of them. Swimming & Diving should be high on the list too. These are both absurdly expensive sports that offer very little to nothing in return. If this ends only with a tennis and/or golf team getting axed, that'll be definitive proof that Kennedy doesn't have the stomach for the job and this university will be in for yet another long and agonizing presidential tenure. Let's make this thing really "lean" and be done with it.

What's with all this ESPN3 talk? I thought everyone was going to be going to the games in person from now on.................

Pull up fade away at the buzzer.......

Hooker is awesome of course. Nice to get out of Cedar City with a win. That place seems to be kryptonite to us.......

Baldwin is a DI player.....

He was doing pull ups.....

Slow starters, just like the football team it seems.......

Ozenhoser is better on the perimeter than he is in the paint

Whoa, I am way behind. 51_46 here

Outstanding play by Geno
