May all be true. You called BS on my post. This doesn’t impact whether what I posted is BS or not. I’m just saying I had that conversation and that is what they told me.

Why would Tom’s reporting or lack thereof impact the truthfulness of my post? At the time we were talking about all of the issues SU fb was facing including Best Buy theft. He said they were all wondering what scandal would come up next. I pressed him on why, as reporters, they didn’t tell what they knew. He told me they’d be cut off from the team if they did.

I have an acquantice that is a prominent NDSU sports media personality. Around the Best Buy timeframe he told me that they know that if they report that kind of thing they'll not be allowed back on campus.

UND recruited him but in the end he and his family decided he’d be better off getting out of Zach’s shadow.

Looking at a number of posts from conf meet where UND athletes flashing a Hawks hand gesture on podium or with trophy. Haven’t seen it before. Does it extend beyond T&F?

Thanks. I didn’t mean for the emoji. I had two question marks which must default to that.

Haven't seen anything on Ethan Thomas this season. Is he hurt or

I used to travel to Beijing for work once a year 10-20 years ago. The smog was incredible if the wind was low. Beijing has some geographical traits that cause the pollution from surrounding areas to settle and concentrate there. We tracked the air quality index (AQI) closely out of curiosity and avoided spending time outside when it was bad. We used the index put out by the US Embassy (which was close to our hotel) because the Chinese rating was often understated. At times we couldn't see across the street it was so bad and could taste it too. I was there a couple of times where the rate was off the chart bad. Yuck. Beijing had rules on when you could drive your car based on last digit of license plate. The higher up people in our company had two cars so they could drive every day. Also people picked their own plate numbers so most ca plates ended in lucky numbers. On days those cars we off the street it made a bigger difference. I'm reading that China's CO2 emissions have been flat or slightly falling since March 2024. I'd be curious to go back and see if anything has changed in the polution levels in Beijing.

He didn’t really mean ‘we didn’t want her’. It’s just standard schtick when a recruit turns us down or someone leaves.

Saw comparison to Brad Marchand. He leads NHL all time with 8 career suspensions (28 games lost) in over 1330 games. Curl has 4 suspensions in about 62 games.

Bring back Morton.

Any rumors on where Uelmen will end up?

You are correct again.

Those Mets fans sure are good at booing loudly.

Women's bb assistant?

Here is Jonah Cummings post on X.

Bubba was already under contract for 2 more years. If you send him home you still pay it. I had a visit from one of the foundation guys last week looking for donations. Not affiliated with athletics. He told me that Bubba has been a big boost for that department. He is very well liked, knows everyone and opens a lot of doors for them. Often goes along on alumni visits.

Thanks for the info. I had no idea.

It's been a long time since I was in school so a lot has changed. I assumed you kept your scholarship through the end of the semester even if you entered the portal. Is her scholarship protected beyond that if she isn't with the team? Or are you referring to other scholarships beyond basketball?

They didn’t mention Chuck Langama in the article. I really think he’ll have a breakout year.

DU with 4 total shots with under 2 minutes left in second. Wow

Nice Strib article on Gutzmer. It is probably behind a paywall but it says Feeney and Gutzmer top 2 QBs on their class in MN and #7 and #9 overall in the state. I know the Minnetonka coaches would be biased toward their guy but they thought he compared favorably with Feeney. https://varsity.startribune.com/minnesota-football-recruits-commit-to-north-dakota-ndsu/601662889?taid=69d5a8a72dba0d00016ac58f&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter
