Okay - it was early.

So glad you have the time to continue to monitor here and question every comment - reality check it's a UND fan site we are going to diss FU - it's all a matter of opinion - and I think there is a site especially for you with like minded people - it's not here.

I think we have plenty of FU trolls here with expressed intent of "broadening our horizons" amazing how important you find the fan site of a school you don't consider your rival. I'm guessing you are another in a long line of twenty-somethings with little prospects and nothing better to do - if this doesn't fit your profile then it's even sadder that you have time to be here.

http://fansided.com/2014/11/03/phil-jackson-tweets-support-anti-redskins-protesters/ According to this story UND has opted not to choose a new nickname. Jackson attended the University of North Dakota, which has opted to not adopt a new sports nickname since dropping the “Fighting Sioux” moniker for good after a statewide referendum in 2012.?

That name is taken - and that school hasn't been asked to change.

So can we assume Bartles has a season ending injury too?

Sorry to tell you the quality is just fine a majority of the time.

This is not my opinion but I've heard this angle before somewhere - so IF the recruiting rules of another school applied to UND the following would be true: ; UND Women's BB can have its pick of the top talent in the region. If offered by UND the only reason any player would choose to go to another school would be because of more money or more playing time. If a player originally offered by UND chooses another school it's because UND changed its mind or doesn't need the player anymore. Any player that attends another school within the region was obviously not recruited by UND or not talented enough for UND. The above is all in jest - of course.

Unfortunately it's a long way from being an annual game - my money is on that it will never be an annual game.

It's not just Fargo, Saint Cloud (140 miles to the east) is averaging a couple of shootings a week - most are associated with gang and drug activity. Yes they have a bus pipeline from Chicago and a very active placement program for immigrants (not saying either are related - just saying).

http://www.grandforksherald.com/content/tom-miller-be-patient-und-qb-situation Pretty big leap to assume that fans are going to come down on Studsrud after just one game. Even the biggest nay-sayers and armchair coaches haven't come up with that opinion (yet).

Looking for up to 4 tickets for Weber State Football this Saturday. I know I can walk up and get them at the ticket office just trying to cut some costs to get my family in the door (they only come up once a year to see what it's all about.)

In Bubba we trust.

Interesting because insiders at UND will tell you it was is members of the Chippewa Tribe that run the Native American Center at UND and make it very unfriendly to Lakota/Sioux, they are also the ones that were/are the most vocal about scrubbing the Sioux name from campus - some have said their reason for wanting to remove the Sioux name from campus is because of a long standing rivalry between Lakota/Sioux and Chippewas.

Glad you're concerned enough about our program that you need to come here constantly and check in. Hey Captain Obvious Jr. we know our program is down we also know where our program has been and have faith it will return to and when it does you can bet there won't be a multitude of our fans frequenting FU Central. With everything that you have to talk about at Bison - Swille you still find the need to come here?

Was it worth pulling the red shirt? I suppose it depends on how bad Bartles is injured - the fact they did pull it might mean Bartles is hurt pretty bad too.

Those of us who follow our school and don't live in the area would disagree. I love being able to watch EVERY UND Big Sky volleyball, football, mens and womens BB online.

My opinion is it's both - players and strength conditioning coach both need to step it up in the off season.

From Tom Miller in GF Herald: UND has lost seven players to season-ending injuries, including four key contributors offensively. A few others are questionable against the Eagles, including senior running back Adam Shaugabay and true freshman wide receiver Dev Ferguson. Shaugabay and Ferguson did not make the trip to Cheney. Must have been a late night when he wrote this because if neither made the trip they are worse than questionable.

Geez get over yourself - one of the major reasons FU was chosen was because there was no compelling game among the big boys - that was stated in the press. The game was barely talked about. If it was a UND/FU game there would be plenty more compelling stories but in the big picture it's just a backdrop and a small town circus with major behind the scenes ass kissing makes for great TV.

I appreciate and support the optimism - I would be more on board if we were going into the game with our #1 players on the key positions. Not thinking it's going to be pretty - but will be tuning in with a beverage in hand - looking forward to next week.

Hey Clawman trust me you don't want to go there - every time someone asks me about it my wife just shakes her head. It's an entertaining 15 minute tirade on the joys of political correctness. As with most issues the answer is ....."follow the money."

Just because you call them true UND fans doesn't make them that - alums yes - fans nope - just because you attended a school doesn't make you a fan for life. A true UND fan would never cross over to FU land no matter what the situation. Some of it has to be for professional reasons if that is where professional people go I would be there to smooze and if I lived in FU land and my professional/business depended on fitting in I would bit the bullet and attend but you wouldn't find me shaking a Scream Yellow sign at any games.

Another day wasted by FU trolls sharing their insecurity on another team's site. We get it your football team is having a great run, ours is struggling. Coming here every day is just a really poor reflection on your life.
