Anyone want to give Peter a different cause to go after and send him NDSU's M/F participation numbers? He might be onto something with the second half of his tweet and he has my full support.

As already stated, football doesn't get the required donations for season tickets including in their Revenue. The 2017 numbers will also show a sizable increase in ticket revenue. The post below shows the net cost/participant. It should be pointed out that facilities expense in these numbers were a pure guesstimate and the $2.2 million in REA/Betty expenses are broken out as follows: MBB - 11%, WBB - 11%, MIH - 48%, WIH - 18%, Soccer - 1% and VB - 11%. I'd venture to guess the WIH cost is lower than it really should be.

Guessing attendance is light when all practices but 1 are not only at 7:45 but also during the week.

I'm not positive, but I think those numbers are off. Even if there were 8 players in Sochi (the Herald only named 7), Schlossman only named 6 this year in this tweet. It's not Fighting Sioux hockey anymore You "understand" that the University was in financial distress? How kind of you to acknowledge that There was a way to make it work?? Oh really? Strange that claim is short on details. UND explained what was needed to make it work: a $60 million endowment. I don't recall any of this "talking up" in past Olympics, especially from the foreign players because, well, their games get minimal coverage in the US. I also don't recall UND seeing any noticeable bumps or exposure from the previous two Olympics at a cost of $8 million/4 year cycle. The University found a way to maneuver numbers to make it look compliant? Decisions weren't made in the "spirit" of Title IX? I don't think she actually understands how Title IX works and there isn't a "spirit" behind it, either you're compliant or you aren't. The OCR investigation proved that UND was in compliance. Period. Women's team of what caliber? Slightly above-average? 0 Conference Titles, 0 NCAA wins but once finished T-2 in league play. What exactly are you hanging your hat on here? This pandering and flat out misinformation is why people have such strong feelings that appear to be negative. Enjoy your gold medal, it's an awesome accomplishment to be incredibly proud of. Quit trying to drag UND through the mud while doing it.

Oh look, another GF Herald misrepresentation...

Gave them a good game, that effort would have won them quite a few more this year. Everyone (hopefully) back except Dale. Add in Moody, McCauley and Bijiek and head to the Summit.

Didn't dig themselves a hole for a change. Hope there is enough gas left in the tank. Guessing Dale won't get as many looks, gives Stewart a chance to get going after going scoreless in the first half.

Oh, that's it? They should have a team in no time.

Last I heard, Avants probably won't play but hope I'm wrong. Not sure how UND counters Akoh without him.

Who cares about them? Most of them (those that actually care about basketball) probably can't read anyway so unless you make it into a picture story, the majority of them will be none the wiser. I like that he has high standards and hope he expects the same from the coaches and gives the athletic department the resources to back up his statement.

You're right. They are at 19% and 13% to win the AQ. Mankato went 2-2 against both of them so anything could happen there. I was looking at the Pairwise probability matrix which shows most likely scenarios. Just a swing and a miss all around on that post for me.

So for UND's sake, we want to see the following win their conference tournament: Atlantic Doesn't matter, all below UND and will take one autobid, leaving 15 spots open. B1G Doesn't matter, all four remaining are above UND. PSU is the closest remaining at 11. Minnesota is out of the conference tourney but currently at 13. ECAC Cornell or Clarkson Hockey East Northeastern or Providence. WCHA Mankato NHCH SCSU, Denver, UMD, UND. Omaha currently sits one ahead of UND at 14 and would get you in assuming there is only one upset in the ECAC, HE or WCHA. Guessing BC may have a chance to move up as well, though how much depends on mathcups, which would mean UND needs to win this weekend and hope for chalk in the ECAC and WCHA.

Not sure about most but there is definitely no shortage of semis plowing down Demers during harvest season.

Game winner. Nice little pass by Geno

Wow.......what a comeback......

UND with a big stop. UND ball and 36 seconds left.

"Hotter than a fat kid's corduroys" per the announcer. That was of course after he gave up an easy baseline layup with 3 seconds left on the shot clock to a guy that was "quicker than a hiccup", though not sure if he thought Jones was going to be there for some baseline help. After they moved Crandall onto Hall, looks like they went with Walters and/or Brown instead, but he's back in now.

Down to 4. Crandall shutting down Hall in the 2nd half but wearing him out. Stewart picking up the slack on the offensive end.

Cut it to 10 in under 3 minutes......keep up the effort, 8:29 to get the rest back.

Listening to the pregame, I think they would take the shots spread out like that (assuming most of them weren't from Hall). The problem is they are hitting them, shooting 50% from deep. Pretty disappointing to watch after making a mini-run to end the half.

The only positive is the first 17 minutes went about as bad as they could have. Limit second chance points and keep playing defense. Geno has 13, needs to get 30.

Points off Turnovers: MSU - 8 UND - 3 2nd Chance Points MSU - 14 UND - 0 Story of the game right there....Need to get it to under 10 before the half.

Was the toll bridge the last new one that was built? That turned out to be quite a mess. You're not comparing apples to apples on the projects due to what is and isn't eligible for different funding sources.

I agree somewhat, but the turn lanes are mostly worthless anyway due to street parking. Finding a way to divert large vehicle traffic would be a better way to spend money, though that likely involves a south end bridge and help from Minnesota among other entities.

To a point, but more so because of his own set of special circumstances to deal with brought on by himself than him applying for and then "bowing out" of the Ohio job last year. However he seems to have continued on just fine and even managed to get his contract renewed which was no small feat.
