I think it was 2013 when they dumped back in black and started a new intro with welcome to the jungle I thought that is a good choice of intro music (my favorite is Enter Sandman at Virginia Tech), along with that was a new intro showing clips of years past a good hype video. I think all of that was gone last year, the music, the video, it wasn't right. I loved the lights out, the hype video and GNR playing while UND runs through the helmet. But you would think after we have been in that building since 2001 they could find something everyone likes and stick with it like at the REA.

There were a couple, I think they had 10 fans by 2010, they didn't join the bandwagon until 2011.

Eeew bville.

I think that was the first time I used that phrase, but okay I won't use it.

Or my post had numerical facts that weakens his case to keep Jones. Oxbow6 put this comment about my post, but I see no one commented about it.
-
Did you guys say that in 2001? Never say never.
-
I love that song. The crowd really gets into that one.

Nice to see the women take their hot streak into Reno. 12 out of 13 is very impressive.

I am sure people in Grand Forks, Devils Lake, Minot, Bismarck, and the rest along with most of Minnesota hear about NDSU especially beating ranked Notre Dame in South Bend and beating Oklahoma in the dance but you are right it was just Fargo that hears about it. Re-read the Fire Jones thread I bash him, you stick up for him. Other people bash him, you respond to mainly what I say. Oxbow made a joke about Jones today but you replied only to me. Do you only follow my criticism about him and ignore other's?

We didn't have an attendance problem prior to moving up to DI. When Muss drove the program into the ground, people stayed home, it wasn't until Bubba arrived that people started coming back. Winning=butts in the seats.

You always stick up for Jones, hell during last season's collapse you praised him and bashed what me and others said. People did that with another UND coach and now Bubba has cleaned up that mess. I bring up NDSU because their media is in our area, their recruiting area is the same as ours, they are in the same state as us, the same area of the state as us, our rival. They are underperforming this season as you see but did you forget how much praise from the state and media for winning at the dance, for beating Notre Dame, beating Wisconsin. How about Jones, what had the media said about him in a positive light? You might find my ranting as comical, at least I know of others on this board that know it's spot on, and find you defending Jones as comical.

What does that have to do with anything, because I didn't I don't have an opinion. Go away with your dumb questions.

At least Ed Schafer knows that any NA imagery big or small is not going to be acceptable and that's not my opinion that is written fact said by the President of UND. He knows the do's and don'ts, so go ahead and blab on your "opinion", and we will find out May 27th what the final logo will look like. -
It's not just last night he has 31 road wins since 2008. I don't get why you are so in love with the guy. A lot of people can see how he should be gone but you don't get it. He is not a good coach compared to the other Dakota schools with maybe USD as exception. He can't beat a DII transition team (Omaha). He can't beat a ranked team. You hate hearing about NDSU, well that's what you get by knocking off big time programs while our team goes to OT against Bradley, or loses to Cal Poly or Omaha. Jones has zero count them ZERO signature wins. And you stick up for this guy like he's your best friend. Getting curb stomped in Montana doesn't cool off his hot seat. He had this fanbase getting excited for Reno even if went to the buzzer with Montana that would be a good thing, but getting pounded last night has lost that excitement. You can blame the players and I'm not excusing them but this 31 road win track record of Jones has a lot to do with the loss.

Get over NDSU? Kinda hard when people around the state and the media talk about it while not saying a word about UND. Big Sky is hard to win on the road in, are you saying the SL is easy then why haven't we beaten Omaha, SDSU, and the Bison on the road? Like someone else says it starts at the top.

I would say if the feathers have a headdress look which it looked like it with the circle in the design then that's not going to fly, but take the circle out like in Fetch's post above and it looks good. -

If Indian imagery is okay in your eyes why did William & Mary had to drop the feathers from their "Tribe" logo? http://pilotonline.com/sports/william-and-mary-will-pluck-feathers-from-its-athletic-logo/article_a77b1478-0686-5374-9546-535f38ae3cec.html " After thinking about suing to keep its two-feathered logo intact, College of William and Mary officials have decided the issue no longer is worth a fight. The college announced Tuesday that it would phase out the feathers, which the NCAA says insults American Indians, but not without some public tongue-lashing. " -
Isn't there a coach that said he was going with that strategy.
-
But there are teams close to home, that go on the road against ranked teams and knock them off, while we struggle...again it starts at the top. Jones has 18 road wins since joining the big Sky. The most wins in any season since 2008 has been 6. 4-8, 3-9, 4-11, 2-14, 6-11, 4-11, 4-12, 4-8 (so far) for a total of 31-84 on the road in DI. 31 wins in almost 8 full years in DI on the road. That is bad!!
-
Lets try and get passed this and get a win in Bozeman before we take on Reno, hopefully the neutral court won't be much of an advantage for the big dogs in UM and WSU.
-
Shouldn't they make the dance first then bitch about seeding. Only one team gets a trip (unless you are in that multi bid Slummit League).

Who did the PA in the 80's-90's at Memorial?
-
It used to be everyone up for a 3rd down and XXXX. That was back to the Memorial Stadium days.
-
We all have the ho hum teams in our conference, even back to the NCC days.

Actually it would be like SDSU taking their award to Hillsboro a non DI city. I don't get the whole taking trophies to different cities thing. Does Ohio State take theirs across Ohio or to Detroit?
