The Root games and any games by a regional network airing home games of an NCHC team won't be on FCS. They can be aired on the Root/etc channels on Directv and dish

Ugh... Midco is regional. If Directv or Dish carried Midco (the full channel, not just a specific game) then it would be ok. FCS picks and chooses games across the country, thus not a regional network.

I'm disappointed too but I also realize the circumstances. How many other colleges with an enrollment of 13,000 students has every home game broadcast nationally?

Prioritize.

Any game, doubleheader or not, aired by CBSSN will only be available on that channel. If you don't get it, you don't get it. For the two times that happens this year, go to a restaurant to watch or better yet, go to the game.

Does anyone not realize this has been going on for at least the last 13 years?

Absolutely wrong. Please be a little more knowledgeable about the situation before you post crap like this. FSN, Root and NESN are regional networks carried nationally on Directv and Dish. FCS is a national network. Games on regional networks, like Midco, can be carried nationally if the channel itself is carried nationally. Any game on any of these regional networks does not violate the exclusivity clause like FCS does.

Saturdays are generally reserved for football. It's the same thing the Big Ten teams are dealing with. UND didn't have a choice of having all games on FCS. Every home game will be televised and four road games will be televised.

It actually went up from 2011 to 2012.

Who was bad at negotiating? UND? UND wasn't negotiating with CBSSN, the NCHC was. From the NCHC and 7 of the 8 schools, this is an incredible contract. The league wanted a national network. CBSSN made it a condition that they were the only entity to broadcast the games nationally. The league decided getting exposure to the entire league was more important than just keeping exposure for UND. That's how a league operates. It looks out for the best interests of the league and at times, like this, a specific team may have to settle. Just because UND was a founding member of the conference does not mean UND gets more say in matters. Just because of the hockey history of UND, the school does not get more say. It's a conference not a dictatorship. With the HD feed, Neulion will have to up the amount of resources for the stream. Although, I've never had any issues with accessing any of the streams or with buffering issues. Yes, it was crappy SD but that will change this year.

Phase 3 is probably some crappy attached outdoor football stadium with retractable roof.

And they still don't have a QB who can win a game. The QB's job in Fargo is to not lose and he came dang close to doing just that several games this year.

As long as he continues to commit crimes in the GF/Fargo area, he deserves to be called a former UND player. It's a shame that he broke the law. It's good he got caught and he deserves any punishment coming. Hopefullly, he learns and gets his act together. There's a whole lot more life to live for most 23-year-olds.

Those five recruits are a combined 9-19 vs UND while at UNO.

Agreed! That's a definite must

I believe they are almost as good as ticket sales. Probably much better. I'm guessing UND will average close to 10,000 ticket sales per game or 14.8 ticket sells.

I think this is a great, perfect, and outstanding opportunity to get a hockey guy in as commish. The ougoing guy was great at running sports but hockey is different, as many people can attest. I'm excited... disappointed with certain moves, but excited that this is happening prior to the season starting and not mid-season. There is still time to commit changes. Fortunately, those working under the commish have been working hard, specifically and somewhat surprisingly Don Adam in his role as superviser of officials. I'm excited about the on-ice performance of both the teams and the officials. The rest of the stuff can grow over the first full year of play.

Buy. I think they will be in the 20-25 range with 7 wins. Buy or Sell: Starting QB rushes for 300 yards in the regular season?

You just said he's a freaking loser for attacking someone's dad. Regardless of any potential truth to your post about SiouxTupa's dad... you still attacked him. And you didn't say he was a nice guy until several posts later. If SiouxVolley comes back in a couple days and says your dad was a good guy, are you suddenly less offended by his original post? Talk about hypocrite, but that's nothing new from you.

Because the only two options are playing Crookston or Oregon...

Kind of makes one go "I'm excited to have a former AHL defensive coach coaching UNDs defense instead of an offense focused USHL coach.

But it's not 19,000. Don't you know NDSU fans like to compare every accomplishment of theirs since the end of their transition to UNDs first year?

The coaches obviously feel that he is worth bringing in so I'm inclined to believe that he will help the team in some way.

So does he have two years left?
