    Any chance Sawyer Riffle will be ready to take over at kicker next year? Nobody we have has proven they can own the job ... if our freshman can't unseat someone, do we look at some sort of transfer? There has to be a handful of D2 or community college kids that could outperform what we have seen this year. Given how close many of our games have been, this could be the difference in a few wins vs losses.

    How many scholarship kickers on the roster? Expect that number to go from 0 to at least 1.

    Well said. 
     

    And again I would add aligning with the remaining Summit members that it’s off the table if they leave in their own.  Not sure how they do it but have to make it a challenge to move on their own.  Not having a bus league for Olympic sports makes it nearly impossible.   

    Und needs a stable Summit because where does UND put its olympic sports if too many teams leave or get kicked out?  Plus, maybe one day UND moves up to football only FBS too. There's so much realignment happening, why do something that negatively affects your own conference and builds a bigger divide with your closest school?

    Coach Schmidt in his first season as head coach at UND gets the 2025 Fighting Hawks into the postseason! 
     

    UND plays Tennessee Tech (11-1) at noon (CT) on Saturday, November 29, 2025. Tough matchup as Tennessee Tech’s only loss was at Kentucky. Tennessee Tech went undefeated in conference play and in FCS play. 
     

    Great opportunity for UND football. Let’s Go Hawks! 

    You mean Chaves got us into the playoffs. Schmidt's team !@#$ the bed in every close game. 

     

    Having Chavezzz on the committee certainly helped.

  4. I don't think I've ever mentioned Romfo in a post, let alone said anything negative about him. 🤷‍♂️

    However, can we please talk about how much of a dictator the man in charge is? Sure, he takes a bit of feedback from his close allies before making decisions, but he doesn't listen at all to us, the ones doing the voting. I'm actually quite worried about what's going to happen in 2026 if he continues down this path. I don't think we'll ever see the voice of the voters heard again. It's as if you don't donate enough money or have enough power, your opinion doesn't even matter. The results so far are a mixed bag, including quite a few decisive mistakes. And for those who previously saw success and were at the top of the ladder, it's been quite the fall from grace. Schmidt needs to get back to being a man of the people.

    Fortunately, the UND athletic department still runs like a socialist country.

  5. It would be hard to find a more political video. Had I started a thread and posted a video touting the benefits of socialism, it would have been shut down faster than government and fewer people would lose their jobs. Instead, @jimdahl allows a double-standard.

    The first commentator owns a property management company with dozens of violations who created a PAC to fund candidates that have pledged to remove renter protections. His company has made political donations only to Republicans, including the RNC, MJT, and other candidates outside of MN. Money that could have been donated in state to help improve the situation he laments.

    The first five minutes includes them bitching about no parking, but because Google exists, there are at least six parking garages or lots within three blocks of where they're standing.

    It also focuses solely on the cities. If it was about the precarious state of Minnesota, it probably should have mentioned that sweet, sweet socialism the farmers need just to stay afloat.

    ...and I don't want to start a new thread.

    What an interesting idea. You mean there doesn't need to be a new thread for every random thought a poster has? Or to promote a new post on their blog?

  7. Wtf is Schmidt's shirt? JYDs should not have an apostrophe unless it's supposed to mean the opposing team owns them in the last 5 minutes. 

    Who approved a shirt that most 5th graders would realize is grammatically incorrect.

    A month-long review of the NCHCTV broadcast schedule has revealed a notable absence of scheduled games for the University of North Dakota's hockey team, including the upcoming matchup against Manitoba. This observation, coupled with an unsuccessful attempts to contact the network directly via phone and email for clarification, has led me to concern. Could anyone in the know, please provide information regarding whether UND's games are being distributed through a separate, exclusive broadcast agreement, such as one with Midco, for the current season?

    The UND hockey website has every UND home game, plus road non-conference games listed as NCHC.TV: 2025-26 Men's Hockey Schedule - University of North Dakota Athletics
