I used to tease my Gopher buddies that DeBus was hoping to stick around long enough for his kids to suit up in the M jersey along with him.

What would be more fitting - and likely - is a 4-1 or 5-1 a** kicking and driving home with this season’s book being closed.

Tell ya what, @Wilbur, I’ll take those regional tickets off your hands for you for free if you toss in a $50 gas allowance and a 3-night hotel stay in Fargo.

Brad Berry getting set to put “OLD NODAK” out of its 2022-2023 misery later tonight…

Yea, nice try. The 1998-1999 team was 33-5-2 headed into the NCAA’s before that disappointing loss to Boston College. The coaching staff didn’t start off the 1999-2000 season thinking there were a ton of “problems” that needed their immediate attention. Unlike our coaching staff, say, next fall, and what they will be dealing with…

And had that team gone 0-1 in the NCAA’s after bowing out as a #1 or #2 overall seed…how hot would Berry’s seat be right about now?

I still cannot believe the comments last weekend. Absolutely absurd to make that statement. This team has folded up more times in crucial games than a Japanese origami piece and he blurts out that they’re gonna go on an unprecedented run and take home the NCAA title? No pressure, boys!

The last chapter of the book is going to be AMAZING, isn’t it?

Welp, panic it is, boys. 24 hours to the end of this season.

I totally dare him to bust out the black NODAK jerseys for tomorrow. What a totally appropriate way to end this dumpster fire season.

Why throw away even MORE money next weekend than you have already on this season? Save that gas money and hotel room expense and stay home. I’ll even give you 10 cents on the dollar for your already-purchased Frozen Faceoff ticket package. It’s a sunk cost at this point anyways, right? Think of it as a few bucks back in your pocket.

I’ll give Berry credit for that win because at least they didn’t underestimate their opponent the way SCSU obviously did the previous year. Other than that, yuck.

I turned down @Ice Arena Man‘s offer to carpool down to Omaha this weekend. And boy am I ever glad I did. 4-1 final tomorrow. Season over.

I set it up for him on a tee.

The same AIC who knocked off St Cloud State a year earlier, right?

Surely you can’t be serious?

Berry might be lucky the 2020 team didn’t get to play in the tournament…just sayin’

1 NCAA tournament win since 2016.

Berry might want to take a writing class or two otherwise that last chapter of this year’s book is gonna be a lot shorter than he predicted a week ago.

You guys almost sound shocked that the team is losing tonight. At this point in the season, are you honestly surprised at the results? Was the 0-0 “shootout win” a sign that they were gonna put it all together for the playoffs?

Win tonight and they have a shot to take the series in 3. Lose tonight and panic sets in tomorrow for this group. Oh-two-barbecue.

The players are stoked? Me too! With Chay Genoway back on D, I’m liking our chances!

The more the merrier, for HJ's and mimosas after the sweep this weekend, right @redwing77?

Ugh. We all know what that means.
