  1. How dare anyone steal Carson Wentz's draft day with talk about UND especially on a UND fansite.
  2. It would be bad to eliminate this program all together. If UND can't provide it at least they can offer it at another school. Good move by Ed.
  3. If they got into the BSC would they try to push us out as we are an outsider and odd teams isn't good.
  4. Some link ranked him the 12th best linebacker, hopefully he can shock people and be taken high, Miami needs a linebacker and they already have a Bison on the team. His size could be a problem but Zach Thomas was only 5' 11" 242 and went to 7 pro bowls and was one of the best LB's in Dolphins history. Ratelle could be a great steal for a team.
  5. I did see 5th or 6th, maybe I have high hopes for third.
  6. I heard he could go as high as third round.
  7. Yeah all started by the bait of a Bison guy and chomped at by a UND fan, and it snowballed from there. Sorry for continuing to push the snowball.
  8. Today's the day, any chance we see Will go in the second round?
  9. They can't. The SWAC does but they don't participate in the playoffs. After getting screwed by the committee last year UND's only goal is to win the conference outright then maybe we reach the playoffs.
  10. 2010 you had 12,202 in the first ever playoff game in the dome after a 7-4 season (at least you didn't get screwed by WIU like we did), I don't think your bandwagon was fully there. In 2011 you had over 17,000 in the second ever playoff game and a 10-1 record..see the difference. And before you bring up it was a holiday weekend and this and that, UND hockey had 11,742 against Notre Dame. Maybe all your football fans were at the REA instead of the dome.
  11. Fighting Hawks is the name, no nickname changes will be coming. Ed Schafer did put this to bed. One month until the new logo is announced. Go Fighting Hawks!!
  12. UND plays in smaller arenas then NDSU in all the major sports except volleyball, plus with Fargo having a slightly higher metro population I hope you have higher attendance and of course how well the team is doing. UND football was towards the top in attendance before we moved up for this reason alone, lose and attendance go down (look at your numbers from 2009) people didn't jump on the Bison bandwagon until 2011, have a mediocre season after season and your bandwagon will fall apart, history has proved that.
  13. I don't need his permission to post. I think we can agree rules can change it is the NCAA we are talking about.
  14. I thought SV said rules were going to change this summer, I am sure SV will clarify what may or may not happen in the near future.
  15. So was Steve DeBerg.
  16. Dave St Peter?
  17. But it's true when comparing attendance. It's like someone at Michigan asking someone at Kansas how much is their attendance in football when you know football is not their #1 sport. So at UND attendance goes hockey, football, men's basketball, at NDSU it's football, men's basketball and either the Fargo Force or the FM RedHawks, cause no other sport hits 1000 in attendance unless UND comes to town.
  18. C'mon that's crazy talk there is not going to be another type of league out west, he doesn't know what he's talking about-- says everyone on Bisonville.
  19. Baseball just isn't right up here when we can have snow on the ground until Memorial Day or later. Its sad to see it go but its understandable to see it cut. We just have too many sports costing a lot of money that the school doesn't have. Cut the minor sports that generate not much or any revenue, and concentrate more $$$ on the core sports. Higher salaries, upgrading facilities, and of course rising travel expenses.
  20. When did I say EMU was our benchmark to move up. They should drop down if they can only get 4000 average in the big boy league.
  21. How many scholarships is swimming/diving and volleyball? That may put us over the 200.
  22. 200 scholarships? What are we at?
  23. So UND could cut as much as 5 more programs and still be DI compliant that's good, that we aren't close to that number but 21 seems like a lot especially when our rivals are in the 15-17 range.
  24. What is the minimum number of programs for DI? Does our neighbors (NDSU, USD, SDSU, Montana, MSU) have 21?
  25. Wouldn't UND have enough money in the budget if we had the DI minimum number of sports? Lacrosse is a better choice with our spring weather than baseball. But too bad conference affiliation sucks.
