Thanks; wasn't aware of that.

What new policy?

Now they can be the cockiest 1-9 team.

Hope to be there, too. Only a two and a half hour drive. Have to get there early, as I don't have a ticket yet.

Without Kuksa, perhaps it won't be a true blue test of how far our D has come, but if they do well without him, it will really be encouraging. What a defensive stud he's going to be if he can recover completely from this injury.

Actually, wouldn't mind seeing that happen. Would be tremendous publicity for our state and it wouldn't hurt recruiting for either team.

Well............except that we'll obviously never know what might have happened had he stuck it out at UNC for his 5th year. Maybe something, maybe not. Plus, he did have the character to stick it out for 4 years there.

Maybe he's not a quitter. Quitting isn't the answer to every adversity in life. I hope he sticks it out. He and Mollberg will make each other better over the years, no matter who ends up getting the lion's share of playing time. And you never know when your number might be called; e.g., you never know when the starter might suffer a game-ending/season-ending/career-ending injury or when the coach might decide to make a change. For example, Bradley quit last year after losing the competition for the starting job to Hansen. Had he not quit, he probably (unfortunately) would have been first in line to take over after Hansen broke his leg. Unfortunately for him and fortunately for us, he had quit and Hendrickson took over and did an outstanding job. To take it a step further, if Hendrickson had been a quitter and not had the character to stick it out for 4 (5?) years as a second/third stringer, he wouldn't have had the outstanding senior year that he had, either. But he stuck it out and was ready when opportunity presented itself. Sticking it out doesn't guarantee that you'll get the opportunity, but quitting guarantees that you'll never experience those kind of opportunities.

Int. on the 1!!! Sioux ball.

Speaking of scolding, what would you call your post?

27-24 Sioux. Hope it won't be this close, but will be happy either way if we get the win. Hopefully, another step forward for the defense and better ball security by the offense, leading to our best overall offensive game, considering Sac. State is better than Idaho St.

Great news to see the FCS contract extended through 2016-17. Am wondering how long we're restricted by the NCHC from getting Sioux home hockey games back on FCS. Are we stuck for good, or does the current restriciton end at some point?

Excellent post. There's a big difference between constructive criticism and bashing the coaching staff. Most of the comments seem to fall into the latter category. We've got a first-year DC and a first-year OC, both with a lot of potential, I believe. Both the defense and the running game have started to show improvement the last couple of games; the defense held EW to 200 yds. below their season average. Excellent improvement. Even with experienced, new DC's and OC's, it takes time for their new system to take hold. We're only halfway through the season; let's give these guys a chance to see what they can do the rest of the way.

Who/what is Ceighton?

Don't forget Jones. I wanted to beat you-know-who to the punch .

I think it's time for an email campaign; doesn't do a ton of good to vent on this board (although it usually feels good ). With the kind of money the REA/UND takes in on game days, I think this decision wasn't very well thought out, both from a PR standpoint and from the standpoint of the comfort, convenience, and safety of our uber-loyal fans.

Looks like its Cole Stefan, a 6-4 guard transfer from Wis.-GreenBay.

Jayson, where are you??

Updates would be greatly appreciated, especially until we can get the game on Big Sky TV. Thanks.

Thanks. Per my edit, above, I misread it and thought that this was a basketball recruiting thread.

Just curious--what "coaching situation?" Edit: Oops, sorry; I misread it and thought it was a basketball recruiting thread.

They will be. Sioux 38 MSU 35

S. Dak. St. with over 190 yds. total offense still in the first quarter at Nebraska. Fire Pellini, fire the DC, fire everybody. Zenner already with over 100 yds. rushing.

You have us 0-1 in the Big Sky, but the Montana game was nonconf.

Nah, you're a little early; the armchair coaches won't be calling for the heads of Coach Jones and staff for a couple months yet.
