Did we take the timeout? If so, typical Bubba — won’t take a timeout to try a Hail Mary to keep in the game, but call one to try and make his moral victory look a little closer.

Who called the timeout?

Since Bubba is selfish, as many years as he’s allowed to stay. His legacy in my eyes is going down year by year. When he is done coaching I hope they don’t keep him around in another capacity. That ship has sailed.

Absolutely bizarre. How can any coach not go for a Hail Mary? Did they not actually have a timeout?

Which is why settling on field goals isn’t going to be enough, especially with our inconsistencies we have had in the past in that regard.

No. Bubba is all about game management, because we have a Steel Curtain defense.

Does Boston College retire his number like UND did for Terry Casey? Is there a better way to show their respect for his accomplishments at BC and still keep #13 open for future players?

I see they say upgrades to the Arena will be announced at a later date. I assume they are going to have new concessions and what not. Anyone know any of the plans?

That would probably work if we had any kind of defense at all, but Bubba's supposed calling card had been absolutely horrible, yet he plays to it like they are the Steel Curtain.

I'm guessing he sucked at that level and now wants to get an education.

Do you think he was teased about being a suckhole growing up?

Motzko did honor Chaz Lucius’ commitment, although that ultimately didn’t work out. Don’t know if Cruz Lucius decided on his own to change his commitment to Wisconsin or not.

Would hope we are at least a candidate for a Saskatchewan kid.

… and three days after August 1, when Michigan and Minnesota have a few commitments, even if they aren’t on Schlossman’s list, people are going to freak out. Maybe that is why Schlossman is going with 30 names, so there will be plenty left on the list when people are in panic mode.

So we're being considered because we are a "high fare market"? No wonder people fly out of other places.

Did Denver want him?

How many don’t even end up at Michigan. Weren’t there a couple this year that decided not to go the college route? I know Perfetti was another that didn’t go the college route. We’ll see if Michigan can continue to reload after losing guys and make the tournament. They put it together late last year, but they lost some talent again, so the studs better produce early like the others seem to have done.

But with all those issues, they still managed 2nd, 4th, and 6th round picks in the draft. Not quite our draft, but most schools would take that.

Does Emery go to the new Ottawa, in Carolina? With Blake and Perron and Emerson, oops, I mean the first two anyway.

Funny how things work out. When Eiserman was committed to the gophers he was a top 3 projection, now he has fallen below Boisvert.

I think Buium will make a lot of teams regret not picking him.

Typically if you are smaller and don't have elite skating ability, getting drafted high would be an exception, but who knows there could be a team or two that values hockey sense and think that minor skating issues could be overcome. We saw teams try to sign Kawaguchi, even though I had misgivings about him making the NHL without elite skating ability. Hopefully he gets someone to believe in him, and if not, I certainly would take a 4-year Kawaguchi type career at UND.

Trying to outscore teams outside of the regular season obviously hasn't worked for them. Maybe they realize that they need some shutdown defense as well as a buy in to the postseason style of play.

So when does Schlossman put out his top 20 targets that will be eligible to commit on August 1. I know it isn't completely comprehensive and includes a local flavor since they may be more likely to be targets, but it is always nice to get a gauge on who we could be after when that deadline rolls around.
