    Anything about handling the nickname is an opinion piece. You either like it or you don't. Agree or you don't. Since Bohl and Taylor locked out the media in the Spring of 2010 and slapped their wrist, some more than others they have been lap dogs to FU football and sports in general. Its not necessarily wrong but you best not throw stones and should not critsize a kid before he gets to Grand Forks unless you know the entire story.

    Lol. You are kidding right?

    He is much better now than Luke Martinez and Joe Hansted were in high school. Talking to coaches his lack of offers to this point were not due to play on the court. I'm sure you knew that though. Biggest challenge for him will be off the court.

    That's a good job by Jones keeping the best player in ND in state. Been a while.

    Improved safety play will/can help tremendously this year. I'm more concerned about staying healthy there.
  6. homer
    Weird that attendance was down when UND wasn't competitive.

    It's an exciting time for kids. While some may not agree with it the way he announces his decision has no bearing on him as a kid. Knowing the family a little I'm guessing it's NDSU, would be very happy if it was UND. He is a very good player.

    They were fine with that though. They will tell you they are better off today.

    I thought you were joking and than I read b'ville and read McFeeley. When something good happens at FU it's great leadership, when something negative happens at FU it's UNDs fault. It's comical.

    2016 Season

    homer replied to shep's topic in Football

    I prefer the 1:00pm starts. It's a time zone advantage for the team and I get to watch the best FBS games as a fan.

    2017 Schedule

    homer replied to MoSiouxFan's topic in Football

    Glad to see Faison and the staff scheduling very quality OOC games. Great addition to the schedule.

    I doubt it was "way to stand up for your beliefs. "

    Some of the same people I have seen post on social media how they hate the logo were the same who voted for Hawks because "How About We Keep Sioux". Sticking it to the man. I have yet to ever seen a non cartoonish or really cool tough looking animal mascot so I am not sure what people expected. The only disappointment I have from yesterday is retiring the ND. The rest should have been seen when the Hawks name won the vote.

    As it was introduced yesterday, no I don't think that will look great on a hockey jersey. However I would deal with it if it was. The hockey jerseys with the Sioux logo were very nice, when that logo went away the jerseys were very nice. I have no reason to believe with all the resources thrown at that program (and rightfully so) the new ones won't be very nice. I even think they will look nothing like the artwork tweeted yesterday that has been reposted 100s of times.

    Since you can't handle it will you stop going to games? Find a new team to cheer for?

    But at the end of all that, the only thing they care about is $$$$. When is the last time the NCAA was truly concerned with PR?
  17. homer
    At the end of the day that is the only reason.
  18. homer
    One was responding to no longer being able to play for this university, the other to a logo design that at the end of the day has no effect on the experience they will have at this university, in the classroom or on the ice. Regardless of the name, they will be equally prepared to compete at the next level and still be given every advantage to prepare. They may not like the logo but at least they have the opportunity to compete and coach next season. Their responses today have been pretty consistent with the entire process.
  19. homer
    The baseball team handled their program getting cut better than the hockey team handled a new logo. In today's world, getting taught how others perceive your social media posts is more important in some cases than what is being taught in class.

    Where did Schaefer criticize it in that article?
  21. homer
    Clearly that is what he was saying.

    I like the grey variation.

    Wonder if he got any discount TVs or appliances before he left

    I don't 100% agree with SV but please explain how a conference that is smaller in total schools with those schools being more aligned in academic focus and athletic focus is disastrous? I'd argue that a 13 team conference or a conference made up of mostly directional schools is more dangerous to an athletic department.

    I apologize for misspelling the name. Colton Hessenflow.
