  1. Maybe to you but they were pretty important to rest of your fanbase when they were good and going to NCAA tournaments. Funny, now nobody cares and they are just those "unimportant non-revenue sports".

    This^^^^^^

  2. Is UND willing to demand excellence at the Division 1 level. Big difference between Division 1 and Division 2.

    No kidding? I would guess firing your coach for underperforming is a form of demanding excellence. Maybe you should be asking that question of your women's AD. Buttfootball

  3. Ask Sam Houston about Big Sky defenses. The entire conference is built on winning during the regular season. When the playoffs come around, teams from other conferences run the ball with relative ease. I think Montana and Poly are built for the playoffs. Montana State gets the ball run down their throat and good defenses shut them down, especially when weather is a factor since they play outdoors

    If you look at years past I think you can find plenty of examples of games where Big Sky teams had good and bad defensive performances.

    As someone mentioned earlier, FU is kind of the defensive exception to the conference. There is nothing I have seen from a MVFC team other than FU that makes me think their defenses are any better than anything I have seen in the Big Sky.

  4. I believe there is another transfer (a talented kid) on campus that may or may not be eligible to play this year. Why doesn't someone in GF ask some questions and see if details can be provided?

    Is it Estan Tyler?

  5. I will repeat my question in this thread. From my limited knowledge, we are our not big enough, fast enough, strong enough, smart enough, coached well enough to compete at the upper level. Do you believe that a whole team can just have "bad games?" It appears that we are still years away from getting to where I hope we will be.

    You can be big, fast and strong but if you constantly kill yourself with missed tackles, dropped passes, dumb penalties and get outcoached by a game plan you are not going to win games. There are some things talent alone cannot overcome. Do we currently have the talent to run the table and win the Big Sky?- Not currently. However, we are not 40 points worse than Montana and Montana St based on talent alone. I believe that.

  6. Agree. Henson had one assisted tackle.

    Kuksa laid some nice hits.

    Kuska is a good athlete who actually tackles well. After watching him on Saturday the only thing against him right now is his size (which will come) and he is a half a step slow in recoginizing run vs. pass (which hopefully improves with more reps). His redshirt was pulled so he should be playing.

  7. It looked more to me like a team that was not prepared. Enough with the excuses. The guys out there are the same guys who have been out there all year and some of the younger guys should be seeing more snaps than the older ones. Kuska vs. Mackey, Edwards vs. Hensen, anyone vs. Peters.

  8. Rich is an OLB and Bell is a guard. Stockwell is the tackle.

    Had anyone noticed how Sharp is built? He's a true fr and looks like a damn horse.

    You can't play with all freshmen and sophomores. Our jr and sr classes need to produce. To me it's been more lack of focus, motivation, discipline and effort than talent alone. Starts at the top.

  9. why does kotelnicki or muss have all 11 defensive starters come out to start the third quarter after giving up 42 points in one half???? what did mackey, henson, peters, and rest do to deserve to walk out there to start the second half???

    That's why I think Norbergs tweet could have been about pulling a redshirt. He would be giving up a quarter of a season but Peters missed some obvious tackles today.

  10. Norberg: Decisions decisions....

    Carr: So sick of this #Done

    Dustin Iverson replied to Norberg's with: Hope they're good ones, need you bad.

    Dan Bell: You either have it in you or you don't, I'm tired of hearing excuses

    JJ McElroy: People are mad at our fans for leaving, I don't blame them for leaving at all.

    Those were the ones that caught my eye from the guys I follow.

    Do you think Norbergs may be about pulling his redshirt? After watching our mlbs today, he'd definitely play.

  11. I think so.

    Speaking of which, I read Caillou's feel good story about Beck the other day. What I took from it was after all that happened, he was suspended for the months of June and July and reinstated once the first day of fall camp began. They really lay down the law in Fargo. Ed "straight arrow" Genarro has nothing on Coach Bohl.

    He had probably been through enough at that point.

    I read that to. All I was thinking was- I'm glad it took two different attempts at resisting or fleaing arrest for you to understand you made a mistake. Most people figure it out the first time.

  12. Well, I would take a win, regardless of how that would impact Coach Mussman's future employment. I may have soured on the current coaching staff, but I'm not ready to pull for the opponent every week in order to force a change................

    Well said.

  13. Portland St. already has over 1,300 yds rushing this year in just 3 games!

    They are going to have a field day against our D...................

    Their running back was a beast last season. Downhill runner who was fairly quick for his size.
