Why on earth wouldn't we schedule USD? Or anyone else for that matter?

This is the MVFC's doing. They got involved with USD after UND Committed to the Big Sky. The question is: Did the MVFC schools only want to go to ten and waited so they wouldn't have to pick between the UXDs? Or do the member schools actually prefer USD over UND?

No link, an educated guess

USD to MVFC

The board may not be the issue, the MVFC's desire to go to only 10 and not 11 may be the issue.

So, lets say the MVFC wanted to expand the entire time, but only by one team. They stay mum and even outright lie until UND commits to big sky. I do believe we will be the only Dakota school in the big sky.

Did I miss this? Per the Forum Colten St Clair decommits from CC and commits to the Sioux.

I'm officially on baord with Nokotas. Uniquely North Dakotan, a unique name to UND, not an intangible notion like the force or freeze (one of the worst trends in sports of the past two decades) and fits well within the current color scheme.

I saw the piece as well. It is remarkable that this man ran a Big Ten University. Costas seemed stupified by what Brand was saying.

3 - Hale, Parise and Zajac

Wow, 13 Americans and as far as I can tell at least 9 former collegians. Not bad, Lou.

Anyone know anything about this Cichy kid? I don't recall hearing him mentioned. http://www.hockeyjournal.com/juniors/20060...7JuniorNEHJ.htm

Oilers Deal Pronger Should see more Greene next year. Any possible impact on Chorney?

A North Dakota native?

He's dead on. If UND is truly moving up, someone please tell me how we are now better off after pissing away 4 years.

I believe the press secretary is a former Sioux Football player.

I suppose this is now the appropriate double UND alumni to contact. Earl Pom

Not unusual for Hale. I was at the Princeton game in 2002 and saw something similar. Following the game as the players were coming off the ice, a kid around 8 years old held out a sharpie for Hale to sign his Sioux jersey. Not only did Hale sign it, but he took the jersey (right off the kids back) down to the locker room for the entire team to sign. Very excited kid.
