McGill's been moved to DB.
Interesting. That surprises me given the big learning curve that tends to come with learning technique, footwork and other mechanics that are unique to secondary positions. Being this is his last year, he'll have to be a really quick study or be content with a special teams and/or reserve role. It made more sense to me when they moved Ivery to the secondary as he had more time ahead of him to learn the position. He's talented and quick, I will give McGill that.

UND is a very good school and a degree from there is well respected in most circles. With that said, it's no disgrace or insult to say Notre Dame is on a different level. Notre Dame is considered one of the best schools in the world.
By most measures NDSU and UND are very much on the same level. Obviously, in some instances one school offers programs the other doesn't, but by and large there is no difference.
Which is why I always find it funny when people say NDSU is such an inferior school.
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.

As I posted in another thread, the rumor is that contractors will start working on final salvage at the old REA as early as next week. They are going to take out copper and other metal that can be resold, old bathroom fixtures, pretty much anything that can be sold. Actual destruction on the building will start in late June. They are looking at somewhere around August 1 for the groundbreaking. First stage of the building is pretty much ready to go, they still have some money to raise for the second stage. That includes the offices. They still hope to have the rest of the money raised for Stage 2 in time to just keep construction going. It sounds like the baseball and softball teams will headquarter in Hyslop with some remodeling. But they will be able to use the IPF as needed during years like this.
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.

Tough to be the flagship when the school an hour away is the same size and is very similar academically.
You can say "UND is THE flagship" all you want, it doesn't make it so.
I don't think we have 7/11 's here.
OK, so your unemployed; I was trying to be nice.

Work on your reading comprehension skills. I was responding to the FACT that the Herald does not run a court report like the Forum does every week.
Sorry.
-
Yeah too bad the Herald does not run a similar list every week.
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.
-
UND isn't the flagship? Please expand.....
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.

Read my post which would exclude Herr Ralph.
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?

Sorry, not familiar with who Dustin Iverson is??
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!
-
Your right. Those stories seem to get barried on the back page!
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!

I'm not about to throw comments towards NDSU for the actions of these former players. For one thing there really isn't anything that NDSU can do about it anyway. I'm sure NDSU and their fans are disappointed with these former players actions. The only reason this was front page material is due to NDSU's success on the field. NDSU football is huge in Fargo and the entire region, that helps sell the Forum when you can put those items in headlines. Yes, in my opinion NDSU should have handled the original situation and current players differently.
Another reason is UND has had it's share of bad apples over the years and there is no doubt in my mind that we will probably have more in the future. Schools deal with kids who make bad choices every year. You never hear about them unless they are athletes, that's why they are news worthy afterall. It's unfortunate that people make stupid mistakes, worse that they fail to learn from them!
It's unfortunate that the press always seems to print the bad stuff that people do and very little of the good things get any press at all. I know many student athletes who donate time to worthy causes that never have front page stories about it. Nature of the media I suppose. Not saying that this story should not have been printed, obviously it is news. It would be nice if they printed some of the good things athletes do off the field once in awhile though.
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 that the quote is what the judge spoke over the players when there were sentenced. Since so many Bison fans thought the whole forgery deal didn't deserve anything, it damn well applies to them too.
"Not smart enough, grown up enough or sophisticated enough"

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.

Should have said 90 or higher, Nostradamus!
