Risky

NDSU is ahead of Dickinson by 2 points at half time. NDSU got a basket with 3 seconds to break a tie. What is the Dac 10 the premier conference in the state.

Everyone sort of tries to make light of the Sioux Falls team. Yes they are NAIA. I do think there are reasons they win national championships and rarely lose any games. They were a very good football team. They could very well be better than a few teams we played this year. They certainly were good enough to beat us if we weren't playing good ball. They did that.

On the news I see Chapman was giving tours of his new mansion today. The timing of that seems a little strange. You would think he might not want to draw attention to his palace this week. It apparently doesn't bother him. I guess it confirms the arrogamce he has.

I am sure his phone is ringing off the hook. There is nothing another University would be more interested in than a Presidential candidate who is in the middle of a money scandal. Do he really think anybody is going to believe that.

Chapman gets caught with his hand in many cookie jars. Then he resigns. I sure hope they don't pay him past January 2. That would be a real shame if they did. It would be like a thief stealing your money and then you give him some more to go away. I think the SBOHE would be smarter than that. Chapman obviously has no integrity.

This Chapman is something else. Wow.

I will be curious if Joe Chapman survives the mess. His image will be forever tarnished by the people of North Dakota. He is going to be remembered for the wrong reasons. It does make a person wonder. He apparently didn't think any of this would come out. Then again he probably thought it might come out, but he didn't think anyone would call him on it.

I have to admit I wasn't sure if I would like the 4:00 start but I think I am going to really like it. It is nice to have the morning off and also have a good part of the evening still left after the game.

It reals doesn't matter that May, Mertens and Allard were offered walk-ons at NDSU. A year from now if more money had opened up at NDSU they might of ended up with money or they would of disappeared from their program. The main thing is that whenever possible it is a huge plus to have local kids on your teams. If these players aren't good enough , they won't spend their whole career at UND. It is a risk for both parties involved. But it is a risk worth taking. I think Coach Jones has the program starting in the right direction.

Didn't Clear Channel Bismarck just sign on to be on the Bison Network. Does that have any bearing on the situation UND has with Clear Channel?
