  1. The past is relevant. NDSU would be the standard bearer for NFL players and they have 11. I am surely not a pessimist but just because you say something over and over doesn't make it true. You also reprimanded me early in the fall because I dared to say that we were probably a couple of recruiting classes away from winning the MVFC. New regime and all that. News flash - we were very competitive but it didn't happen last fall
  2. ESPN lists Iowa with 29 players on NFL rosters this year. UND has 1 - Waletzko
  3. I don't live in GF and haven't been to the Betty for many years. I was familiar with the old setup but not what's changed. I believe they moved the stands on the end back but not sure. It wasn't great originally so can only imagine what it is like now. Can someone explain what they did?
  4. per what I'm reading that was the expected proposal. Not sure why it didn't get voted on and the 9 game redshirt rule did.
  5. Reading FBS coaches just voted unanimously to extend number of games played from 4 to 9 and keep redshirt. Not sure if applies to FCS if it passes.
  6. Not 100% sure that's true. I got to know his family a bit during his time at UND and didn't hear any rumblings of that. They were fully on board with him and UND football. It sounded like he was also considering coming back for last season which doesn't make sense if it was for a different major. I do think it had more to do with the old OL coach leaving vs. Danny but he did follow Danny.
  7. In my opinion a number of things about Danny leaving and his return are true at the same time. The fact that he left wasn't a huge deal to me but where he went and the position he left for says a lot. Danny 'bleeds green' but left for a lower position at a rival school and took a player or two with him. Looked to me like he was pouting cuz Bubba wasn't retiring fast enough. His offense at Wash St didn't have a great year and he wasn't offered to move with HC to Iowa St. He will be an improvement over our last OC.
  8. Sounds like the Antique or the Spud in the 80's. We almost had an all out brawl between guys from the football and hockey teams one night at the Antique. Fortunately if blew over.
  9. not looking to be snarky but I'd assume that OC has final say on play calling. The passing game coordinator generally develops the passing game routes, passing game plan, etc. and provides input but doesn't call plays. Reading online, that seems like the normal setup. Maybe they had a different arrangement
  10. more confirmation on Danny
  11. crazy finish to regulation. going to OT
  12. wasn't able to watch earlier. Announcers said ISU defensive changes turned the game. Do you know what they are doing differently?
  13. Tie game. 5 minutes left
  14. He posted pics with his kids during the season so guessing you are right and they lived in GF.
  15. Here’s Miller’s post.
  16. 2-10 last year. Enjoy.
  17. Koi Perich from Gophers entering portal. Read earlier they were expecting he’d cost $1M+ and sounded like they’d pay it. Wonder what he’ll be getting somewhere else.
  18. More crazy portal numbers.
  19. Hope we're taking care of him too.
  20. UNDFootball360 reporting the same.
  21. just saw this.
  22. I see ESPN+ has Finland vs Czechia tomorrow (12/29) at 2:30
  23. a few do show up on ESPN+. Tomorrow Canada and Latvia are on ESPN+
  24. I'd guess there's a formal or informal limit on how much Sioux merch we can sell and still be seen as having changed our nickname.
  25. I grew up in GF area, played for the Sioux and was a militant 'keep the nickname' guy until it just wasn't worth what it was going to cost. I also have a house full of Sioux stuff that will last me as long as I am on this earth. They fought it to tune of millions of dollars but it became untenable by the end. The pain that was going to be imposed went way beyond any potential gain by keeping the nickname. I believe we got jobbed on playoff seeding or left out completely as punishment in multiple sports. If we'd have chosen a better nickname like Nodaks, I think the transition wouldn't be such a big deal.
