    Rumor has it that Bubba addressed the team last week with more fire than anything seen in the past.  Maybe the message is finally resonating that the “Mr. Roger’s” approach to firing up the team is not really working.  Also hearing that our younger quarterbacks are making real efforts to take on leadership roles.  While it can be hard to expect significant changes based on history, I remain hopeful that we will see moves forward again next year.  This team can be frustrating, but I’m hoping for improvement and will be right back tailgating and in my seats next year.  I am, however,  hoping we see real changes on defense and get some of the old Sioux linebacker and secondary hitting back into the system.  Our coverage schemes on third down clearly have to be scrapped as well.  We have a whole year to work on that….

    Too little too late why wait till after the season

    Good point.  Wonder how GF ranks in hotel rooms per capita, compared to other cities.

    If you read through the North Dakota high school activities, Association, #MIN, they aren’t giving us the class B girls basketball tournament anymore due to hotels

    A bubble on "Albrecht Field" (if that's the planned name) takes away the patio (left field) experience. Make the new FB facility work, maybe by having a "bump-out". With a 6 foot outfield fence you only have to be about 200' down the line

    The new indoor field doesn't need to be connected for extra convention space but close enough for an across the parking lot five minute back and forth shuttle would be smart. 

    GF is limited on larger conventions due to number of restaurants. 

    And hotels I’m told for tournaments

    Based on this logic, Grand Forks shouldn't have a Super Walmart, Sam's Club or Super Target either. But we do.

    Also, if Brainerd/Baxter, MN can have a Costco, then Grand Forks is definitely big enough to have one.

    ND airports with flights to Denver:

    Fargo

    Bismarck

    Minot

    Dickinson

    Williston

    Devils Lake 

    Jamestown


    The city in ND that does not have a flight to Denver:

    Grand Forks,

    which ironically is a leader in all things aviation with the top aviation school in the country, an Air Force base, and is becoming the leader in drone technology.

    Sad really…

    Figure it out and earn my business…if Devils Lake and Jamestown can do it so can GF. Until then, I will choose the best option based on expense and ease of travel.

    Jamestown and Devils Lake have ambitious directors and tourism officials

    He has spent 5 years building up a good offense. Now recruits are starting to take notice and if you look at this last years and next year's class on offense we have some serious talent coming in. This talent will take our offense to another level. 

    Why did it take 5 years? 
     

    look at usd they did it in one?

    Sucks, that guys poured a lot of his heart and soul into this team. Hope for a speedy recovery for him. It does offer more minutes for others though and I am excited to see more Mara.

    In my opinion the biggest problem at the GF airport is the absolutely brutal schedule Delta has in order to make any connection in Minneapolis.  It seems like you must take the 5:00 AM flight which means getting up at 3-3:30 AM - a hell of a way to start a business trip or vacation.  People who live outside of the GF area must get up earlier.  For some of us that means only 3-4 hours of fitful sleep.  And by far the most common return time is around midnight.  A western hub would also be useful.

    Agreed the flight times are the worst thing holding gf back

     

    wondrr if we have even asked delta to change

    Get another carrier with similar flight destinations and delta will decrease their price 

    minot has more flights and Bismarck is only 30 miles further than from GF to Fargo 

    williston has more carriers than grand forks, partly because of oil 

    Does our airport guy even try

    If only Tim Miles coached around UND and had knowledge of the school and would most likely be interested in that…oh wait

    He is coaching around Und 70 miles south tonihht

     

    whoever burned the bridge with Ben Jacobson by the way, he used to come up here on a two for one deal
