I don't think anyone thinks Mussman is a great head coach, so maybe he did do the best HE could considering the circumstances. Someone could have done better, no doubt. But maybe Muss will only ever be a great OC and a below average head coach. And that what he brought to the table was below averageness.

Just because Faison could have put in a bid doesn't mean he has to. As someone who works for a college conference and an athletic department in a separate conference, I know the ADs communicate with each other on a regular basis so it wouldn't be surprising if Faison reached out to the other ADs to see if there would be a chance of a positive vote for GF. But he should just submit a bid so it looks good to others. Of course having appropriate resources is necessary to being a successful D1 program. Where has that not been the case? Bubba and Brewster (2/3 of the non-hockey money-making sports at UND) are being paid sufficiently. As is the volleyball coach. Jones started as a D2 coach but does he deserve a raise just because the school is now D1? As you've clearly commented, he doesn't deserve to coach the rest of this season let alone a raise. Since the transition was completed UND has hired new football, women's basketball, and volleyball coaches and they're being paid appropriately. UND paid the buyout for Mussman's contract which undoubtedly cost the University money it could have used elsewhere. UND paid most of the cost for $4million new turf at the Alerus. UND is building the largest indoor practice field in the country. The way you make it sound, it's like UND is just scraping the barrel to get by. Look how long it took for NDSU to renovate the BSA. Just because they were athletically more successful doesn't mean they are financially more successful although their football wins have helped a lot.

Don't you realize? It's always Faison's fault. He should have had employees spend dozens of hours on a bid for this. There's no way he did any research to gauge the interest from other schools in attending a tournament in Grand Forks. Or at least hire an external company to create the bid, as UND is just rolling in dough and shouldn't have moved up to D1 if they couldn't afford to throw money at any and everything some message board posters don't like.

Does it generally fall the same weekend as first round of NCHC playoffs? That could have been a deterrent as most athletic departments would be stretched thin if two different big events were happening at the same time.

Haven't you learned? Once = always on Siouxsports regardless of topic.

Did someone just complain that the laser in the press box is too boring? Think about that statement for a bit. Talk about privileged fans who look to complain about anything.

That doesn't matter, as dlsiouxfan has already proven that MOST UND hockey players only play for one or two years

I'm curious who was the last UND hockey player to spend just one year with the team. I mean, if MOST players only spend one or two years, there must be dozens of examples from just the past decade. Certainly, you couldn't be completely exaggerating about this, which makes me assume you're doing the same on your other posts which makes me care a while lot less about your little tirade.

Nope,just like Calvin Johnsons catch in the endzone was ruled incomplete.

You're arguing with another ndsu fan about your own team's QB and then decide to take an unnecessary shot at UND in the process?

Why are two ndsu scrubs arguing with each other on a UND site?

Of course you get consistency but you implied that the gear is supplied free. It costs money regardless of any deal.

That is not true.

You'll pay for doubting the power and existence of the %gobc!

How is there a log jam? These records literally mean nothing when it comes to standings.

Surprised no Demko

Reading comprehension 101... I suggest you take it. Nowhere in his post did he say anything about you being the only one who wants Jones fired. Just that like the anti-nickname crowd, you're the one who yells the loudest. Anyone who defends Jones immediately gets attacked so I wouldn't expect anyone to stand up for him on this site.

Did you just use an article by goon as a legitimate source of information?

We have an extra ticket for Saturday's game. $30, Section 4 (over DU goalie's right shoulder), Row 4.

The Big 12 is looking at adding Colorado State and one other team (I'm hearing UCF) which would leave an open spot in the Mountain Division of the Mountain West. Idaho could be an option, although Boise will likely fight that.

Anyone else going? Saw Chris Kuper will be attending. Temps should be mid 30s unless a warm front moves in toward the end of the week. Would be nice to see a road win to get to 5-7.

My guess is it has more to do with Watch Big Sky than midco. The conference wants the games streamed from their site... one location for everything and that's why it's not on ESPN3.

Studsrud had knee stuff too or just a typo and meant Molberg?
