Geno.

Correct on Gordon. As some might know, I have zero life in the late summers and I tend to make it to most summer camp practices. Gordon looked more than ready at that time, and was the most impressive back on the field many times. That said, this was when Santiago was practicing with the WRS.

I joked with a buddy last week that poor Nevermann might find himself in the same spot that he was last year in Wyo: Bubba: Hey, Oscar! Nevermann: Yeah, coach? Bubba: Come over here, pal Nevermann: Coming, coach! Bubba: (putting his arm around Oscar)... Sooo, how're things goin'? Bubba: Workouts coming along? Grades? Heard much from home? Nevermann: Everything's good, coach. Bubba: Soo, Oscar, we're looking pretty good at running back going forward, aren't we? Nevermann: yeah, coach, I'm pretty excited; can't wait to contribute! Bubba: Soooo, whadd'ya think of linebacker? Nevermann: <oh crap look> All kidding aside -- I think Oscar is safe at RB, as we all know the importance of depth.

That's a great point that I forgot about! Boxers and wrestlers bring a lot to the game of football. Can't be overstated.

AFter a season of winter weights and Diet by Baukol..... wow, he's going to be something special!!!!

Yeah, let's see if Prior handles this loss better than Hardee did on his last trip out to a BSC tournament.

Below is the most recent injury report published in the UND-Cal Poly Football Notes that came out late Monday (despite the fact that it says "Oct. 31" on the Injury Report -- I think that part just didn't get updated). It is kind of funny the cat-and-mouse game that teams play with the opposition when it comes to these reports. For instance, we all assume Brady is out for the season, but the report lists him as "doubtful." Doubtful ????? What??? We all saw him on Saturday, didn't we? Looked more than doubtful to me, but, hey, what do I know? Bubba also gave an encouraging nod toward Oliviera on the Midco show on Tuesday night. He said something like Brady's injury might not be as severe as first believed, but he gave no time table for anything. I will keep hoping for the best! NORTH DAKOTA INJURY REPORT | Oct. 31 2 Brandon Walker, WR (Out) 5 Brady Oliveira, RB (Doubtful) 15 Alex Reed, WR (Out) 16 Romon Bridges, WR (Out for season) 20 Zach Arnell, DB (Out for season) 30 DaQuan Baker, DE (Out) 32 Taj Rich, ILB (Out for season) 43 Drew Greeley, DE (Doubtful) 46 Tyler Coyne, FB (Out for season) 61 Brandon Miller, OL (Out)

How in the heck does MacKenzie Hart not get first-team all conference honors after leading the entire NCAA in digs per set and the year she had overall?

I think Walker has an injury. Not sure what or how severe.

Along with the other reasons, I imagine some of it is because they run, run, run, and then pass in the red zone where TDs are more imminent.

As long as that's all it is, I am quite cool with it. Go, Hawks!

Guess we'll just save our pent up frustration until next fall on Sept. 17 and take it out on someone at the Alerus Center in Grand Forks.

I love how so many seem to think that some original name was going to be announced today after knowing for several weeks what the two possible results would be. If it would have been the other way, I am sure we would have been seeing much the same comments from the FH crowd, lamenting how unoriginal it is to have the same nickname as a high school in Grand Forks -- again, after knowing for several weeks what the two results might be. The fiened incredulity is a bit nauseating. I guess this is just the pissing and moaning stage.

Fighting Hawks!!! I'm on board!

It's a 50/50 guess for anyone at this point... .but undoubtedly, it's leaking all over the place. but that said, hell, even the Wisco ESPN3 announcer knows.

The official notice of a presser for today is below: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: NEWS CONFERENCE NOTICE: UND to announce new nickname TODAY The University of North Dakota will hold a news conference today, Wednesday, Nov. 18, at 10 a.m.in the Television Center in Skalicky Hall on the most western edge of the UND campus to announce the new nickname for the University of North Dakota. WHAT: News Conference to announce UND’s new nickname WHEN: Wednesday, Nov. 18, 10 a.m. WHERE: Television Center, Skalicky Hall (on the western edge of the UND campus) WHO: President Robert Kelley, Others Contact: Peter Johnson Executive Associate Vice President for University Relations Division of University & Public Affairs University of North Dakota (701) 777-4317 work (701) 740-5398 cell

that's my guess, too.

I've heard good things about Avants, too.

I was surprised in a good way. They will only get better!

Final. 52-67. UND. Dyer with game high 23. Roscoe with 14 pts and 7 rebounds.

True Absolutely, agree.... I don't think anyone thinks that. There are so many variables in play to make a snap judgement on a single game performance. For instance, two years ago, NDSU lost by 18 to UND and then went on to shock the world by knocking Oklahoma out of the Big Dance.

I think all of you are talking past each other and actually agree more than you disagree. UND wants to win and will compete as hard as they can to win tonight, but they if lose, this one game does not a season make or break. That is the thought that I am interpreting from Hoops. Just trying to keep perspective instead of arguing on the extreme margins. But, hey, this is a message board and any other way would be no fun, right?

I see one of their workhorse running backs who's played in all 10 games so far almost came to UND this past fall. DJ Peluso (7.3 avg per carry, 1 TD and 29 long) had UND on his short list with Poly coming out of JUCO.

Anyone know if Kyle Ruhe finally hung it up after two injury plagued seasons? I see they updated the roster (nice new look) and Ruhe is not listed anymore. He had a lot of of promise.

Kenny Golladay. Palendech. Big Snacks Edwards. Though they left for different reasons, as in coaching change. Golladay is probably the more comparable example.
