Bison Dan

Your sure? I guess you've been on vacation for the last 6 months.

Yea you don't have Green/Pink/White glasses either!

As a scout player this year he looked very good. I guess we'll have to wait until next year. Comparing credentials from a player in Texas on a bad HS team to someone in another state is apples and oranges.

You apparently didn't watch us play MN this year. We also have a red shirt freshman from Texas that will play next year. We don't need any runningbacks, but usually pick up one or two a recruiting class.

The only reason UND got those players is both Montana schools had a low # of scholarships last year. I'd be willing to bet that the Montana schools will get over 90% of the kids they want in Montana. But hell UND must see something they like in that state.

Labbys and BWW are two good places within walking distance of the FFD.

Why doesn't the media ask Coach about Cory Hanson. Another secret?

Bash you - why? - we always take it easy on special needs people!

Why would you recruit players that would go to BSU?

Did you really think they would? You must be new to Sioux sports, nothing ever bad is mentioned or brought up by the media.

Money does cure alot of anger!

It always boils down to money!

Absolutely right in that NDSU had a contract with UMD for a game before Bubba was hired. Once hired he didn't want to play the game and Gene who's a good friend of the UMD AD let them out of the contract. No conspiracy just a classy move on Gene's part that's all.

Stenjhem said on WDAY that if a settlement is made with the tribe it could be revolved at anytime by the tribe and then UND would have to stop using "Fighting Sioux" immediately. Seems like the tribes have all the power and can hold UND under their thumbs. Time to change and take the power back.

They just announced that our game with Ill State will be televised next week. 4:00pm kickoff on KVLY statewide.

When you guys get jealous it's not pretty!

I agree - Only when 2 teams meet head to head will anyone really know. Comparing scores doesn't tell much of the story.

I was out west hunting last week and every radio station I listened to was talking at one point about the Bison/Gopher game. Lots of talk all over the state before the game. Compare that with having the National Champions playing UND in hockey the week before. Outside of GF not much state wide interest.

Once again your wrong dave - playing in big games have plenty of meaning. It's something that UND will want to do is schedule as many big games as possible during the transition.

When Buning hired the assistance coach at Moorhead State I don't think anyone was impressed.

I don't really think there's that big of gulf between the BIG 10 and NDSU this year. If we had 5 big time skill people on team the Bison would challenge alot of FBC teams. Nice to see that you think it's going to be so easy for UND to transition to DI (We do make it look easy).

I'm sure you know what "delegated oversight" means. mksioux didn't say that the president should "run" the athletic department. That's why you have an AD to run the department, just like the head of any department or division. The president is still responble for all departments within his/her university. It's well known that Kupchella didn't have much time for athletics. He resisted the move to DI from the start. Spin it anyway you want but the ultimate responsibility for the situation in the athletic dept. is Kupchella's.

Sounds to me someone has to approve it. But then the wording is as clear as mud.

Can any ND university employee just take a LOA? Doesn't it have to be approved by someone? Again most are missing the point about Mr. Martinsen, no post I've seen is ripping him for anything. It's the policy of placing him into the athletic department under the control of the university president and not the AD. I know that it's been said that he wasn't in the athletic department, but anyone that is involved with university athletics should report to the AD.
