    2015 Recruiting

    What's your point? Has FU recently had a high school running back who really excelled at WR in college and got a few carries in different formations?
  2. I wouldn't put it on women's hockey. There are other sports that could be cut. Some of them men's sports. FU has proven that there are different ways to meet title 9 requirements. How they do it works. Someone really needs to explain to me the benefit of UND sponsoring all the sports they do to meet these requirements.
  3. Hockey does not cause any sports at UND to be underfunded.

    Smith also holds the 2nd fastest time in the state of Michigan in the 200m.

    2015 season

    There aren't many FBS programs that would limit their players playing time at an FCS school. The second part of this, taking the schools on Notre Dames schedule off the list and the SEC due to transfer rules, any chance Golston ends up at Oregon?

    2015 season

    I read most comments as posters saying we need some immediate contributors to be competitive in the tougher games on our schedule next season. I also think getting full buy in by the players on the importance of staying together for summer will make a difference. It has been a number of years since that happened.
  7. How many restraunts have been in that location?
  8. He is a good man. My point was the imaginary GOBC didn't keep every single person in GF from opening a Space Aliens. Its a franchise, anyone who wants to pay the fee could have and still can open one despite GFhockeys story.
  9. Nobody wanted to pay Mort Bank the million plus he required for the franchise fee? Guy was smart, took a lot of his experience gained from owning his McDonald's stores and translated it to the sit down restraunt. At the end of the day is the name Space Aliens worth $1,000,000+ on the outside of a building? Don't pretend your GOBC had the pull to keep him out. Space Aliens is a franchise.

    If it was going to happen with Hansen, now isn't a terrible time. Gives time to potentially find a FBS transfer or someone to fill that spot.
  11. Id love to see a highly promoted event however, with lack of depth still a concern I'm fine with the controlled scrimmage event.
  12. I agree with this. Adrian's public image is shot. If he follows up the incident of beating his son by sitting out a year when he is due 12 million dollars, he will go from one if the best ever to cry baby in most peoples opinion.

    Not sure who the 2nd is but the first (Hjinosa) brings a ton of energy to the defense and is a welcome addition.
  14. And how would that conversation go?
  15. Sponsor blackjack tables at the Canad Inn, similar to Teammakers in Fargo. That would easily raise the neccessary funds.
  16. IMO- this shouldn't be that difficult for Faison. He needs to sit down and priortize each sport and what the best return on his investment will be. Mens Hockey- remaining competitive will fund other sports Football- who cares about the conference, the regional schools will offer it and we need to be competitive to start selling the 4,500 tickets not being sold on gamedays Basketball- this money may be tied up in buying out a year of Jone's contract Womens WBB- Fans pay to come to these games and enjoy them. Don't let the momentum slip from thats been built the past two seasons. Volleyball- see above Hockey- selling tickets for $1 doesn't drive revenue. Have the facilities to get top women's players without the additional money.
  17. My only question is it this really 11th hour or him not being responsible enough during the first 10 to understand the whole issue?
  18. There is also the fan that just wants to watch the game regardless of who wins. There are a lot of them in Notth Dakota. $200-$250 tickets wouldn't surprise me.
  19. This will be a hot ticket. They would have no reason to believe otherwise. Ticket prices will be well over face value in a 19,000 seat stadium.
  20. Why such a huge hit? What else was he doing besides recruiting until recently?
  21. Not surprising as Grabowski had appeared to be doing a lot of the recruiting as of late.
  22. The last two basketball games have been ass kickings that were over in the first 10 minutes. They were pretty one sided. I would argue with you that the FU crowd was not in the game vs. UND this year at Scheels arena.
  23. A. - With no interest from FU fans, tickets should be easy to come by. B. -UND sporting events in Fargo are the only way tickets sell for over $1000 C. - tell me more about how you don't care about UND anymore
  24. I can't tell if your being sarcastic with the last half of this post.
  25. Coaches have said so in the past. I'm guessing it was more the NCAA threatening sanctions and the threat of not being in a conference. That would kill any low major program.
