I am not a Jone apologist, I am not Mrs. Jones. Now let's have an intelligent discussion. 1. When we look back on this team in 5 years I think we will realize the talent level wasn't as good as the current perspective thinks it is - for this level of basketball. 2. This teams legacy - great individual talent - weak on team work? 3. Can't really compare DII records to DI record - way different opponent talent level and strength of schedule. 4. There will be no more Elite 8 appearances for UND men's basketball - ever.

I have followed UND basketball since the Gunther era, maybe that is part of my problem. Dave and Glas both had down years, sometimes several in a row. But I never heard anyone ever call for their heads. Of course there were no chat rooms, there was only talk over a beer after the game. They had talented teams and sometimes they just didn't put it together as well as another team. I always just looked at it as entertainment, not a reflection of UND as a whole, or something that would ruin my enjoyment of UND sporting events in general.

What's the record of Summit schools vs Big Sky schools this year?

April 26th - there will be beer, there will be brats.

Shanley = private school = donor dependent (follow the money).

Is it common knowledge how much schools offer kids or is it hearsay - how is Kolpack able to write that every time a kid chose UND over FU it was because UND offered more money?

Plans are to attend again and try and bring some first timers - will there be a metal detector at the door? I am going to dig through my Siouxpride.com inventory and try and come up with some doorprizes to add to the bounty.

Road trip!

Loved the comments by the new volleyball coach who said now is the time to bring kids up because if they can't handle it during the winter it won't be good for them or for the team.

Okay your daily duty of coming to a fan site of a team you have Moooved on from and trying to convince us that FU is better in every way is accomplished.If we said "Mission Accomplished" would you go away?

Gotta give CC credit for what they have done based on the obstacles they have to recruiting: super high tuition (not everyone gets a full ride), small fan base, no local community recognition - of course it is a small private college so the educational benefits are outstanding.

Please show examples of when I said that Mussman should be kept in charge of UND football - you won't find any. You will find that what my opinion (which I am entitled to without ridicule) was that the UND administration could be trusted to make the right decisions and that I quesioned the value, benefit to UND and integrity behind a constant barrage of posts that called for a man's job, insulted student-athletes and questioned every move the UND adminstration was/wasn't making. The rest just isn't worth the time. I challenge you to go one week without a negative post.

How does that work for the majority of alumns that don't live within range of the free TV. Big Sky Network is sweet for those living outside the state.

Hey I made a mistake with a rating - why call me out? My thoughts are that back in December many were sharing too much doom and gloom about this year's recruiting opportunities and class. Kids just don't have to make a decision that early and while I am very excited about the new football staff I think the doom and gloomers are now over the top with what a recruiting miracle has occured. I continue to be amazed at how many posters here that are UND fans question every decision and every move that the UND staff makes. It is certainly okay to question things but there is seldom kudos given or retractions made. I'm not a kool - aid drinker I just trust that UND is a quality institution and hires great people who know what they are doing. Plus I don't know what parameters they are working under, guess that's why I throw out so much fewer accuastions, questions and insults to their ability and integrity.

I'm not the smartest one in the room - that appears to be you. There are so many holes in this rant I don't know where to start. But there are enough pissing matches going on in every thread I'm going to pass. Just back away from the ledge - it's not as bad as it seems to you.

KFGO is not going to take UND over NDSU - at the end of the day having WDAY isn't so bad - UND gets lots of air time in that market - just have to accept that SU is going to get the primary share of the media attention.

Okay other than UND who's going to bring the most fans to this thing? I'm not feeling any urgency to get my tickets yet, there are going to be plenty and hotel rooms also shouldn't be a problem. My biggest concern is finding a place at the table at Hoggsbreath.

Not much choice in the market - KFGO has FU, WDAY has UND - they have to program for ratings.

Perhaps they casually mentioned they have a left over big screen TV from Best Buy just sitting around.

There's always a fan social it's hosted by the SCSU Booster Club Saturday night - watch for details. Great road trip, always plenty of Sioux fans around downtown after the games.

So how would you feel if you and some FU buddies were talking football and I walked up and said "I hate your team and hope they lose every game. In fact I cheer against them." and then I proceeded to try and engage you in conversation about FU football. To me if just doesn't work to have FU fans come to our site and try to cozy up to us and then constantly be dropping thoughts like I root against UND football, FU football has left UND in the dust, we win every recruiting battle." I think most could understand that someone who says they hate your team isn't someone you want to hold a conversation with about your team.

Is it urban lengend or truth that Northwood changed its name from Trojans to something else because of the underlying reference to condoms?

Back on topic - don't you love watching a big tight end catch one over the middle and turn it into something big. Name: LUKE FIEDLER School: Freedom High School – Orlando, FL (Coach Jeffrey Higgins) Vitals: Tight End (#34). 6’5″ – 215. - See more at: http://siouxfb.areav...h.7NnvZPQb.dpuf

All are welcome, we come here to talk about UND. Usually when someone has to say "I'm not trolling" it's followed by something that could be taken as trolling. And cut the "gosh you sure are sensitive here" crap - glad to talk UND recruiting with anyone, not so interested in hearing "we win every recruiting battle" from another school ad nasium. 119 posts in 8 years not really that engaged in talking about UND.
