Ask any of the fb people that post here what playing MN 3 times did for the NDSU fb program.

We'll it was your loss as history has shown.

Your wishing doesn't make it so. You had fun wishing for our failure during our transition - how that work for you?

Low blow!

Where were you guys during our transition - and don't give me that crap about DII rules as that was changed the first year of our transition. You guys purposely chose not to play us in any sports - so what goes around comes around.

Now you're dating yourself..... 108498 won't know what you're talking about.

WOW - I imagine you think that if you keep walking you'll fall off edge of the earth too!

Oh I agree, I think most hockey people will now start thinking straight, it's the "others" UND has to worry about.

I don't think it's the hockey crowd that you have to worry about but the uninformed voter that only see's the big bad NCAA trying to force it's will on UND.

If you actually think that not playing MN and Wiskey in hockey doesn't hurt your program you're living under a tree. It has already hurt your football program as it's the only school in both Dakota's that hasn't played a couple of B10 teams during the transition. NDSU has sent over 80,000 fans to the Twin Cities for the Gopher games and most everyone thought it was a hoot and a big plus for the program. Playing all those D2 and D3 schools in hockey are not what the UND fans that pay the high price tickets are looking for. Without MN and WI a couple of bad years and you'll see.

Apples and Oranges - Our student section is around 3,800 or 20% of the FargoDome. If yours is about the same that's 30%. of the Alerus. If attenance is counted as those sections as full then the numbers are wrong. Counting those seats as always full improves your season average more.

Well now we know what the going price of a college president and AD are. Terry was a good administrator but I don't think he was prepared for the hockey crowd after he got rid of Gino. He was asked to leave, make no mistake - if not why would he go? I have a feeling he was "very well" compensated for it.

Muss got the roids out of the fb team yet?

Tim O’Keefe was on the radio and said that it was a big mistake for UND to quit playing NDSU and it's hurting UND through their transition. NDSU has sent over contracts for games and UND just keeps moving the goal line. Now we are out to 2015 or later. Another fact is we have the money to bring in a FSC team in to play and you guys can only bring in NAIA teams. Look at the arrogance of some of UND posters. You have lowering attendance, poor game atmosphere, and a mediocre team but we are suppose bend over backwards to schedule a game with you. Instead of worrying about playing NDSU get your own house in order. Win the BSC.

Faison was on the radio last week and was asked about Hakstol's comment (email) and he said that issue was straightened out. Sounds like Faison reminded him who signes his pay checks.

The only one anyone is laughing at is you......

Now you're just being stupid.....

Did or didn't Gene give Faison a every other year contract 2 years ago. Remember? Both him and Muss said every year or nothing. You know the rest of the story. Why do you guys care you have the BSC now. (Maybe)

So? The few hundred more fans for that game vs losing a home game every other year. Not hard to figure out. Best thing RT ever did was to stop playing NDSU is all sports. Made us stronger through our transition.

WOW if you hockey (pro Sioux name) people can't see that losing MN and WI in hockey is a big deal then you're blind. Your hockey program will start a down hill slide, mark it down. Sioux hockey fans pay the big money to see WI and MN. and with them not on the schedule you're screwed. I posted it a month ago or so that Hakstol and all the big shots need to hold a press conference and tell all the people of ND to not vote for this.

Looks like your going to get your wish.

Hard to doubt the results!! (ie all GWC team as an example)

I doubt there is many NDSU fans running to sign this thing. If this thing goes through the minimum that would happen is: UND will stay on the !@#$ list at the NCAA. Regional schools will refuse to schedule you. No home playoff games in all sports. That's the least that will happen and if you can live with that so be it. Just remember those home fb games this year helped a lot to get us into the NC.

No way 1 million - I think they did get over 400,000 which is the most I've heard of for a FCS team.
