GROSS!

You are right. I transposed the numbers. I meant 6-5. Most humble apologies.

Apparently no one told Ken Massey there's a new sheriff in town. His initial call is 6-5 with basically a tossup on Southern Illinois. Definitely going to be better than this. https://masseyratings.com/cf2025/5538 Edited to correct the win/loss figure.

I'm curious what the deal is with Spicer going to ASU. I know he was a UND commit years ago and was at Duluth at one time. So we didn't want him or he didn't want us? I'm guessing the first. I haven't paid a lot of attention to hockey, sorry.

There won't be any better teams in the Summit than there are in the MVFC and no more money either. Leave me out of your pipe dream.

Would someone tell me why anyone would want Summit football? We're in the MVFC, which is way better than the Summit ever will be. If we aren't happy with the MV we should have stayed in the BSC.

Hopefully Jax knows what to do.

I'll give him a chance, even more than a chance, but one word still comes to mind: Inbred.

So did we do NDSU a favor by sending down someone to catch Miller's throws, or did they do us a favor by letting Belquist strut his stuff?

Quoted for truth.

Or sometimes you want to move to get further away from the mother in law. It can go both ways with stuff like that.

Is that anything like the Bring Bubba Back thought from 10 years ago? Asking for a friend.

My gut feeling is BB gets one more year, so take that as a good sign. I thought the same thing about Bubba for a couple days after the season ended.

I certainly would agree. The problem is that it was before many on this board were even born. Same with our hockey glory days.

The reality check is that NDSU football has far surpassed UND hockey. Even in our hockey glory days we weren't that big just because hockey is and always was viewed by too many as a niche sport. Lots of hardcore followers but the average sports guy gravitates towards football. It's going to take some pretty good years to build any nationwide excitement back into the program. That's the reality.

I read on inforum that Fargo has three now and one in Moorhead. This will be the fifth for FM metro. Funny thing is restaurants seem to be closing as fast or faster in FM than they are opening.

Everyone was convinced last year that Jerry would be the starting quarterback. I'm not assuming anything right now.

Hard to make money when you're being taxed to death.

But it hits the instate landowners too.

I am in favor of eliminating all property tax then, not just on the residences.

It would make more sense to eliminate the income tax.

But I hear some of the entrenched ones want to change and lengthen the number of terms they can serve. I imagine every term they will try and stretch it out further and further. I have zero respect for the ND Legislature.

Valpo never excites me no matter where we play them. Same goes for other teams like Drake which tend to show up every few years. I don't care if it's an easy win. If we need to schedule crap teams to pad the record we aren't ready for the playoffs.

How do you propose to get into an FBS conference when none of the other Dakota schools have been successful? I'd venture a guess that two of the other schools might have slightly better credentials than we have and no luck. I'll grant you that it appears SDSU hasn't tried very hard either to move up though
