Looks like they will have more medals to polish. Starting to feel sorry for them. Maybe set up another fundraiser to help them with storage and polishing.

The other finalist is a player UND faced over Thanksgiving. Mark Alstork from Wright St. I didn't really remember him. Obviously not one of his better games when I looked him up. 0-9 FG with 6 TO's and fouled out. Did go 10-11 from the line.

Just before the game I posted a video from Valley News Live they had taped in SLC about these two. It is in the AZ game thread. That story stated best friends.

Don't know if this was posted earlier somewhere but just noticed it this weekend. Drick and Gonzaga's Josh Perkins are best friends. Story taped out in SLC. http://www.valleynewslive.com/video/?vid=416574363&vid=416574363

What if I tell you those fun and games includes 8 Olympians?

Smearing UND consistently won't help the fundraiser for the family vacation in the Sioux Shop.

Especially "paid" attendance.

Arizona's 7-footer Lauri Markkanen declared for the NBA draft today after his freshmen year.

Schlossman will be on KFAN with Barriero at 5:30.

carsonshanks05Alright. Here goes one of the tougher posts I've ever had to do. As of today I am no longer apart of the University of North Dakota basketball team. These past few years have been some of the most special and unforgettable times of my young life. I don't even know where to begin with how grateful I am for each and every one of the people that have supported me throughout these past 3.5 years. The community, my teammates, my classmates, my professors, my coaches, my friends, you all have filled my heart with memories and relationships that will be with me for a lifetime. This program took a scrawny kid that had no where to play and then turned him into a conference champion and a participant in the NCAA tournament. Something I never thought I would say when I arrived here years ago but, I love Grand Forks, ND and it has become my home away from home and some of my lifelong dreams came true in this wonderful tundra we call the Forks. In terms of what I have planned for my future, I plan on graduating this May and transferring to another school to begin working on my Masters and playing Division 1 college basketball for my 5th and final year. No matter what happens in the near future, my heart will always pump UND Green. Thank you all so much for everything you have done to me. Love you all, Carson "Big Fudge" Shanks

Carson Shanks just tweeted he is leaving UND as a graduate transfer and will play somewhere else while pursuing his Masters degree.

Thanks. That was the one thing I forgot to find out when I was at the Ralph today.

Yeah I don't believe that either. Hopefully we get to find out. I will gladly pay again.

This is highest rated show in region in the heart of recruiting. Probably had good excuse..missed opportunity.

They have promoted Bison since Tim Miles and the FB run started. Would be nice to get on their good side also. Barely acknowledge they have affiliate in GF unless it is the nickname mess. Also talk SDSU some.

I know yesterday they didn't believe they would even sell/use whole allotment which I believe is 350. Each player gets 2 tickets reserved for family or friends to purchase.

Coach Jones will be on KFAN with Barriero at 3:15. On I Heart for people not in the listening area.

I was at the Ralph to buy tix at 10:30 and phones rang 3 times in those few minutes inquiring about SLC.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow thru UND at 10:00am. Tickets are for the 2 game session only. $100 per ticket.
