Thought that we should start a game thread. Looking forward to the start of the season. Anyone looking for a site with all the links needs to listen or watch - here you go.. http://www.undsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=13500&ATCLID=209619440

Here is a nice game page for UND football game days http://www.undsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=13500&ATCLID=209619440 NOTE: I started a game thread..

I think that San Jose covers..

No return game and I believe that NDSU paid over $200K for FCS games in the past.

Cool, a surprise would be welcomed.

Hey, I would love to see strong line play. Just have not seen it for a couple of years. Anderson is the only starter that I have seen descent play out of the rest not so much: Barton, and Meehan have played OK Hanson got pushed around as a NG - not sure how that translates to anything decent as G. Boas unknown DLine Carrothers and Cummings have done nothing Hinojosa unknown I agree that any player may improve from year to year. But, you are asking for 5 very average players to step up in one season. I just don't think that is going to happen. I will be watching on Thursday night. Not trying to be a hater. But, no much to cheer about recently.

The bad thing is that they are the best that they have got right now. So, they have to produce. I think both lines are going to be train wrecks.

More than likely a shot at UND... Paul Allen is a marginal play by play guy. Can hardly listen to the games.

I know as a season ticket holder, I am really excited about the 1 nonconference game against DRAKE a nonscholarship program followed by Idaho St, Cal-Davis, UNC and MSU. Hell, they should just call the Big Sky and say they don't need home games. Lets just go on the road all the time. Its what we do at UND. Maybe if we clean the slate with them we can get some home games in 2020 or later. But, I would hate to inconvenience the conference like that...

Don't thank us - please send your warm regards to the man himself. I could use your help - please go troll Bubba/Faison Bubba's email - bubba.schweigert@athletics.und.edu Faison email - brian.faison@athletics.und.edu

Faison? - this is Bubba - he has not coached a game yet and he has already screwed it up - can't wait to see his gameday decision making.

What?

Its called the Dayton rule - how many of the 124 really care about football? About 40 - check the budgets for football. The rest are looking for the cheapest why to play basketball.

Don't agree with this at all.... please do not sign this deal.

He has had 3 or 4 different deals on the table...

For UND to have a successful offense they really needed Bell and Stockwell contributing. I could be surprised - I am still looking forward to the first game.

I assume that we are going to see a lot of movement in the 2-deep.. surprises for me.. 1) DL - no Cheatom or Walker at NG boy they going to be light.. I hope that don't get pushed around up front too much. 2) LB - no Butler or Jenkins-Moore 3) OL - no Stockwell or Bell I think that it is going to be a long season.

Sensor's off of 494 and France in Bloomington

I just got my season tickets in the mail ready to go..

I believe that BF has talked about this recently and he stated that UND had a plan in place. If the P5 hockey schools go to full cost UND is going to follow. Fullerton also talked about full cost scholarships and that the Big Sky might be looking at supporting basketball at full cost or additional stipends.

Oh no, we have no control we have to play.. you have got to love a good part time conviction. If you believe in it then you fight for it.. otherwise it's just empty. which is what I think of when I think of the University of Minnesota. Only a good cause when its not too inconvenient..

Agreed, the craziest thing about all of this - in the upper midwest "your word is your bond". It is spoken of often in particular small town/rural Dakota's. Go ahead and try this in main street rural Dakota. See, how long you do business in that area. Yet, Taylor and NDSU have already broken this repeatedly changing the deal over and over again. This is so far removed from the culture of this area that you would think people in the media would start to call them out on this. But, yet it appears to be accepted behavior. I get the numerous NDSU trolls that hit this board not caring about there word - just read what they write. But, I have got to believe they are alienating some of the casual followers. I know that I was not happy about how UND conducted business in 2003 and I let it be know in 2003. In particular, about not moving up. But, were is main street North Dakota on this.. are they fine with how NDSU has broken there word (again, I get nothing was signed - so its not legal) but I was taught at an very early age if you made the verbal commitment - it meant action and follow through. Maybe I am just getting too old to understand.

email sent 5 hours ago - If I have to pay more for season tickets so be it.... schedule other home and home with other teams - move on.

Johnny Boy is just begging to get banned right now.. don't get it.

Of course one major difference - ONE SCHOOL WAS LEAVING THE CONFERENCE and PLAYING IN ANOTHER DIVISION
