Two of the most iconic logos of all-time in college hockey right there. What a damn shame...

Yes, as long as there is enough color contrast so that it's a "home" or "light-color" jersey. UND's blacks would probably not qualify. Would be interesting to see a UND-in-black vs. BU-in-red match-up, though.

How about the accidental replay on the baseline pass and subsequent layup/dunk where the passing player and the ball were both on the line?

Had no idea before tonight who Grayson Allen is, but if you asked me before the tournament started what team would likely have a kid by the name of "Grayson" on it, my #1 guess would be Duke.

I understand your passion, Fetch, but much like the Brooklyn Dodgers, the New York baseball Giants, the Baltimore Colts, the Houston Oilers, the Quebec Nordiques, the Seattle Sonics, the Los Angeles Rams, the Buffalo Braves, the Minnesota North Stars, and countless other teams like them, eventually, people move on.

Tyus Jones with a flop that would have made Kyle Rau proud!

The cummerbunds have been in use all season long by Wisconsin, Louisville, and others. Looks awful.

Uh, no. I was Fab Five all the way. I have been a Michigan hoops guy going back to the days of Antoine Joubert and Gary "The General" Grant. That 1989 team led by Glen Rice was amazing too. And if 1993's team played North Carolina's 10 times, Michigan wins 9. I only wish that Jalen Rose could have mopped the floor with Bobby Hurley in 1992.

Actually, I thought ESPN tried to make Laettner look like a good guy.

Shouldn't you be busy stuffing the UND nickname mailbox with your witty selection?

Is this Prom '15 or what? Are those white cummerbunds that Wisconsin's wearing? WTF, Adidas?

Had a mini-class reunion in Dickinson last week when I was home for a short visit. I showed up in my "I HATE PAUL DEMKE" t-shirt. Bierman was pretty average that night but a couple of guards who had made like 3 three-pointers all season hit something like a dozen that night. Jim Schroeder didn't win the big one either until moving on to Fort Yates. Back on topic, is it Thursday yet?

Anyone else watching "The Returned"?

Awesome videos, NDSU grad. What was Lakota's nickname back in the day? They're combined with Edmore now, correct? How about McVille? I seem to recall the announcers going back and forth on "Mick-ville" and "Mac-ville."

Well, Ox, I am jealous not only of that, I am equally jealous of you and your state B boys tournament record, too - a 5'3" point guard. Whooda thunk that back in 1986? Didn't Kevin Bierman also dunk a ball so hard on you that it smacked off your forehead and left a giant backwards "Spalding" imprint there for a week?

Didn't the Bruins steal the Penguins' colors? It's a shame that the Penguins didn't move to Kansas City a few years ago. Imagine the uproar that would have created had Pittsburgh promptly built a new arena and the Bruins relocated there.

Didn't they put up 10 on Brain and the 'Roid Crew?

I still hate Christian Laettner!

Seriously, though, I need to add a skating Friar jersey to the collection...and SOON!

I'm not sure where you were at but he caught some flack in '98 and that really ratcheted up in '99. The '00 title quieted that talk but the team lost in '01, watched its biggest rival win in '02 and '03, and finally lost in the regional with what some folks thought was his best team in '04. If you don't think there was some talk of Dean Blais having lost his Midas touch, you're wrong.

You're looking at the KPH reading, not MILES per hour, Goon.

I'd agree with you, although UND did get to 3-2 in the 2nd before giving up two late goals, including that dagger with less than 30 seconds left to make it 5-2 at the break. Didn't exactly get that "epic comeback" vibe headed into the 3rd either...

Fixed!

Would anyone else here like to see Goon and DaveK just meet in an alley somewhere and slug it out already?

I had to re-wind the DVR because I wasn't sure where the game was being played. I thought it was in Japan.
