coach daddy

Now that you are telling Rutgers and UMass how to run their athletic departments, will you leave us alone? Both of those schools need you way more than we do.

Is that a shot?

Jenny Crouse won 3 National Titles and was player of the year twice? nationally, I believe. The list of best players ever to play here begins and ends with Jenny Crouse. Argue over who is the 2nd best player.

It's called Capitalism. I hate that gas continues to rise but if I owned stock in Exxon Mobil, I'd probably be a happier man today; and I could afford gas more easily.

Can't deny that. She has played at a very high level for 4 years.

You can say that if you want, mockingly I'm sure, however, Craig Smith deserved an interview. His record speaks for itself. It is too early to throw Coach Jones under the bus but if someone can tell how this team will get any better in the next 5 years with no league, no hope for the playoffs, and a team that is already not very good.....................I don't see it.

Take it back further if you want; Scott Hanson=Dakota Prairie played at Northern (Elite 8 team with 3 starters/key reserves from North Dakota that Rich never talked too) Kevin Burkhard=Lakota played at Northern Kevin Aronson=Crary, played at Moorhead St. and led NSIC in scoring Those are 3 Rich, Ben, etc. chose not to recruit. We've looked in other pastures for many years Walrus. Why would this coaching staff do it any differently?

Definitely Crouse over Kimbrough. No Doubt. I'd put Heisler in the top the 5 of all time. Too many people on this board didn't get to see her play, but look at her stats from her career. I believe she shot over 50% from the 3 pt. line. Awesome player!!!

You know so little about the small colleges in this state its sad you'd even comment. The educational opportunities that exist at Dickinson, Mayville, etc. are important for the rural high school grads of this state. Kids coming from small towns thrive in the environment of small colleges (2 yr. and 4 yr.) This is my opinion, but I believe more of those small college kids stay in North Dakota after graduation also. I'm talking from a percentage standpoint vs. actual numbers. No research to prove it, just years and years of being a part of this state and letting my children attend state institutions other than NDSU and UND.

I swear to God, the stupidity of some of you never ends. I don't care if you are just trying to get a rise out of us or not. It feels good to call you STUPID!!!! The small institutions in this state are beautiful schools. The campus' have a great feel to them and plenty of kids who otherwise wouldn't compete athletically get opportunities at those small schools. God forbid this state ever forgets the importance of our smaller institutions. Of course, guessing by your name, you didn't bother to stay in ND and use your SU degree to benefit the people of North Dakota. State wasn't good enough to be a place to raise your children?

Once again, the people in charge have decided that being a grad, having a vested interest in the success of the institution, and bleeding sioux green for most of your life is not enough to make people believe you can this institution or athletic department. I'm embarassed for Mr. Smith and the work he has put into this University to not be given a chance to lead. Why is the most obvious decision so freakin hard for this school? Kelly might be good but Bruce Smith already is good and his love for this school/community is obvious. Damn!!!!

Don't know enough about all 5 but if Smith isn't of the finalists there better be an investigation. What better way to start the year than a lifelong UND guy being named President.

If Coach Lennon brought this kid to campus knowing he had verballed to UND, I'd be very disappointed, not to mention shocked. If this young man called Lennon, Schmidt, etc. and said, "Hey, I want to play for you". Then it wouldn't be Dale's fault for the kid changing his mind. Still, most coaches tell their recruits to stay at the institution that recruited them, not the coach. I can cite how that has been over the last 10 years. It isn't worth writing about now but if this continues, I'll give more details.

If that's the reason he's here, I stand by my statement; Go Away!!!!!

And there is no justification for a man? from another University to come here and tear down a man who went to Vegas, started his own company from nothing, turned it into Billions of dollars, and then gave back to a place that meant more to him than any other place in the world. Like I said, Go away. Tell to your Bison folk somewhere else. Coming to this website to insult the people of UND is pointless.

You can't be stupid enough to believe you can come to this site and take that kind of cheap shot at the Englestad family. If some farmer (lol) offered to build you tools a new arena in Fargo for $100 million dollars, you'd take the offer in a minute. For the 1 millionth time, THERE ARE NO STRINGS ATTACHED TO THE BUILDINGS HERE AT UND. This why Bisonville exists. Go take your stupid ass cheap shots over there where you'll be appreciated.

Not sure it turns around next weekend either. Mankato and St. Cloud are both good enough to win in the Betty. Can't make shooters once the season starts. Wonder why we don't play both the big kids at the same time and try to shove the ball inside more. Koenig took 1 or 2 shots Saturday and Benter maybe 5? If everyone is going to zone us, we might as well go to plan B.

To win 14 we have to win 3 conference games. I don't believe we'll win any on the road so we have to win 3 at home. Duluth, St. Cloud, and Augie? maybe, but I am going to guess 13-15. I think Augie beats us at the buzzer; probably the guy from Bismarck!!!

Why would I want a 2 guard who is 1 for 13 from the field? She took 13 shots in the tourney because she had to, not because she wanted too. Good thoughts both ways. We'll see. Not sure which stats you see that tip us off to any of them being true point guards. Asst./TO ratio? Doesn't tell us much between any of them as far as I can tell.

Amen brother, Amen. Tracy has babies so in another 14-15 years we can start the cycle again.

Just my opinion, but I believe Jahner was a much better point guard than Mallum. Even in the NCC, size is a factor at the point. I also believe that a point guard has to pass first, shoot second. Jossy and Mallum are more shoot first players. IMO, that does not work at the point.

Different as in...............better?

You're right, she may be the closest thing to a point guard on this team. However, I don't believe she is a true point guard (Jahner) and I believe that is the problem with this team. I didn't mean to sound harsh in evaluating her, just feel like point guard is not her best position.

He is at least 3 more years from being able to play.........................."project" is being nice. He is a huge longshot to ever play for UND.

I gave this material to my students one year. Sorry I couldn't just attach it to the reply but I couldn't find an attachment option on this page. This may make the Title IX talk a little more clear to all who read. About Title IX Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 is the landmark legislation that bans sex discrimination in schools, whether it be in academics or athletics. Title IX states: "No person in the U.S. shall, on the basis of sex be excluded from participation in, or denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal aid." Athletics has created the most controversy regarding Title IX, but its gains in education and academics are notable. Before Title IX, many schools refused to admit women or enforced strict limits. Some statistics highlighting the advancements follow:
