    Nickname/Logo Affecting Conference Affiliation

    in UND Nickname

    Posted

    Where were you 5 years ago when UND wouldn't schedule NDSU (in any sport)? Go through your transition and then we'll talk. It's simple.

    NDSU has proved it doesn't need UND - Can you say the same? Can you say hypocrite!

    Taylor has told members of the Fargo media that NDSU will not play UND as long as he is in his job, although they won't report that. This is just his way of making that happen without owning up to it. There's your hypocrite.

    Football Attendance

    This was definitely the largest student attendance I've seen in all of the history of the Alerus. We need the student section to start some cheers, especially during pre-game warm-ups, there was a group up in the corner that tried. Also let's start some new tradition cheers, not sure what they would be but how would it feel to be inside the Alerus with 11,000 fans shouting, We are North Dakota, We are One!

    Check out this article in the Corpus Christi Caller-times. The Sioux Crew sent the article out to their members.

    The Javs were really impressed by the loud crowd and the Sioux team.

    "You couldn't hear anything, and they knew your names. It's something we should be used to, but some guys weren't used to it at all," said receiver Clavens Charles. "It kind of got to the point where we couldn't understand what was going on, we couldn't get the signals to get the plays in. It was just a lot of mental errors and a lot of penalties that cost us."

    "The noise ... I mean, I've been to outdoor pretty big-time Division I football games that weren't that loud. Over 11,000 people in a confined area is pretty loud," Javs coach Bo Atterberry said. "

    "Also, it was a team that has all their individuals committed to doing it right, no matter how big or small their role is," said Atterberry, whose Javs travel to East Central (Okla.) for Saturday's Lone Star Conference crossover game. "They have some guys that just played special teams or whatever, and they beat everyone. It was like they were the most privileged person in the world just to be running down on a kickoff."

    "Atterberry said. "I don't even think as coaches or fans or anybody we had on the bus with us had any idea what kind of environment that would be. They sang 'Home of the Brave' in the National Anthem, and (instead) they all said, 'Home of the Sioux,' and it was like thunder went off in there. It was coming out of the rafters throughout the whole room."

    Cancellations

    in Men's Basketball

    I was thinking the same thing earlier today. We must be related or something. :lol:

    I know that they were considering cancelling the camp in early August also because of lack of enrollment. They have decided to keep it.

    Sioux vs. Mankato

    Does Mankato have any special rules for tailgators? Specifically any restrictions on adult beverages.

    Two years ago they told us they didn't allow grills in the parking lot but they waited until we were headed into the game to tell us.

    Personally, I don't like the man. I know that the majority here think his $hit don't stink (as does he). I just have never like him.

    I agree with you there! Thanks, Mr. Bunning!!

    Rob is a very good man and would be a great choice. He was definitely in favor of moving to D1 and told me so a few years ago while he was still at UND.
