Not really that surprising. It's just a juvenile reaction to seeing the same stuff about UND on here from trolls or on another program's message board. Goes both ways. We just have a lot of other-team fans (and a couple of supposed "UND fan" contrarians who like to feign indignation and argue for the sake of argument) on here that like to remind us that we are supposed to check our biased fanatic card at the door and see things from a realistic, informed, un-opinionated, pragmatic and unbiased standpoint. Makes for a boring message board sometimes. That's all.

That's a very good bet. I have not been told anything that exact, but I have been told that it is imminent this summer. The State Board of Higher Ed approved its demolition way back in February.

OK, so your unemployed; I was trying to be nice.

Sorry.

Oh they do and they have and they will continue to. (i.e. alcohol violations, suspensions, drug busts, child support neglect, fleeing police, disorderlies, etc.) This usually is all met with much chagrin and feigned incredulity by the Siouxsports community and UND admin. I've perused lots of threads on here about how unfair the GF media was to UND athletes. We can argue about Kristo's "side" of the frostbite incident and how the media reported it, but, for the most part, accurate accounts of UND athletes' run-ins with the law have and do make the news.

Can't and won't ... besides his shift at the north Fargo 7/11 starts in 15 minutes. Needs time to bike it and punch the clock.

What does this have to do with the thread in question? If you're suggesting that UND hockey alumni give less time, talent and treasure back to UND than AC football alumni do to their alma mater, then I have to ask, what's your source? I don't know who gives more? They probably give the same. Who cares? Or are you just trying to be contrarian again? Stirring the pot for s & g?

He's a UND recruit out of western North Dakota (Elgin, N.D.), at fullback. He's a pretty good basketball player, too. Evidently, he befriended a number of out of state recruits during visits to UND and kept in touch with them online. He was like a UND booster, recruiter and recruit all in one. Sounds like a neat kid who's really enthusiastic about UND and others want to be around him.

Nice find! Welcome to Receiver U, Zach! This looks like an old combine video for him:

GAME OVER!!!! UND wins.....11-3 over #1 UNC

Two outs!

And in the back of our minds. It's our sad fault as much as the media.

Pitching change as UNC loads 'em up in the bottom of the 9th. UND does like to make things interesting all the time?

That's one out!

11-3 UND, going to the bottom of the 9th. UNC is up. Let's go UND! Pound the #1 team in the tourney!

11-3 UND... headed to the 9th. Let's put them away, boys!

Actually, there is quite a bit of good reported on, written about and ballyhooed in the media, unfortunately, that is the stuff that you usually turn to your wife or husband after seeing it and say incredulously "That was news?" or "Why in the hell was that on the front page?" It's only the bad news that we really remember and start message board threads about that go well into 90 pages.

11-2 going to the bottom of 8.

11-2 UND, headed to the 8th inning.

11-1 UND going into the bottom of the 7th. UND tacked on two more runs in its half of the 7th.

9-1 Top of the 7th. Good guys!

Tough game ahead against UNC. We went 1-3 against them this year, if my memory serves. Although, the three losses were close and, in the last meeting, UND whacked them pretty good, scoring more than 20 on them. Baseball is a funny game that way. Go UND!

Hope you understand it's the part of the bolded that you left off that I was referring to. I will be more exact next time.

That's a little rough. Bottom line is it's bigger news because of who they are: "Ex-Bison football players." It doesn't matter what their status with the team is now. Bizon buttfootball is huge in Fargo, and rightly so, the headlines are going to be bigger for these guys because of the amount of news the scandal has already gotten and, again, because of who they are. If they were Johnny Nobody who shirked his responsibility you prolly wouldn't hear about it at all. For those having a problem with them being referred to has "Ex-Bison," until they do something else in their lives that merits a new descriptor (i.e. serve on City Council, get elected president, work as Chief of Police of Fargo , become a TV meteorologist or whatever, this is how they'll be described -- for better or for worse. Lastly, Gene Taylor's a big boy. If he's asked about this by the media, I am sure he will handle himself just fine.

#5 UND knocks off #4 Utah Valley.
