No you won't. No changing once a pick has been made.

Is it game time yet? The wait is nearly over!!!

It just seems like we've had more than our fair share of departures is what I was getting at, while conceding that all programs lose players. What is frustrating is it seems we are losing too many good young players whereas other programs often lose margin players or ones that get buried in the dept chart. Getting buried on the chart hasn't been a huge problem for us, and that's another reason I question if we are going after the best players? More or less thinking out loud on some of this stuff, I do think we've improved in a lot of areas in the last two years and just have to keep plugging away.

It's just going to have to be next man up. Every program has defections and we have to deal with it, even if it puts a big hole in a few places. Hopefully we don't lose any more and we don't have any more off field incidents. Whenever we lose a player it does make a guy wonder if we are really recruiting the right people?

This is where we are lacking and where the Bison are stomping us. It's those TV games that are killing us in the exposure dept. We need to find some way to get on TV ever week during football season.

The greatest blasphemy is associating my name with this thread. I never once implied that Wentz was comparable to Christ and feel it is in horrible taste to have me listed as the starter of this thread with the comparison of Carson Wentz to Christ. I am therefore demanding my name be removed as the starter of these moved posts and really, the comparison to Jesus is in bad taste, especially on Easter.

I sincerely believe that the minimum we should expect or accept is 8 regular season wins and at least 1 playoff win. We need to make strides every year.

It's gonna be a game boys. I'm thinking nail biter but I feel a lot better about it today after seeing how good the guys were yesterday. 3-2 Hawks.

Because it was at NDSU, the greatest know power in college football. (sarcasm)

I sure hope it doesn't take that long. The last 16 years seems like a lifetime ago.

Sure seems that way. Doubt Fargo media will allow anyone else to share the spotlight.

It just seems like hockey is a non-event to ESPN now days. The worst is that there isn't much that can be done to bump it up either.

More disappointment. I hope this isn't a trend

Disappointing.

And I hope no one is questioning the loyalty or support of the Sioux Forever crowd. If anything, some are supporters to a fault, but all UND fans do still know what the bottom line is, as you have pointed out.

The Drake for Friday and the Nick for Saturday

And there lies the problem. Until people start accepting the new name the wounds will just continue to fester and the entire program will be stuck in the past and dragged down. We are trying to move forward and can't. I'll grant you, Hawks wasn't my first choice. Hell, it wasn't even my 5th choice but we have it, so let use it. I'm sure the new recruits we are dealing with would be more comfortable with the Hawks name since that's what it is. It is what it is and it's not going to change. Why make things so miserable?

Attention moderators, grandforks hockey has hijacked cowboys account. Can anyone translate?

I hope Bubba doesn't just let this slide by with a one game suspension A slap on the wrist will just mean more of the same. Guys that can't follow the rules need to be booted or the infection just continues to spread.

Would you settle for an Athletic Director instead?

No one will accuse us of having a hot goalie, that's for sure

But we've still got a long ways to go to get attendance to an acceptable level. Until we sell out most games and move a lot more season tickets the place simply will never have the right atmosphere. We can talk about changing music and doing certain things after touchdowns, but in reality, the best atmosphere is a packed house at every game.
