Santiago and Oliveira play well beyond their age. Brady looked like he had a completely different gear. Hopefully he's past whatever nagging injury he had earlier in the season which in hindsight, hindered him more than originally thought. Clive makes a huge difference. Great strategy by Rudolph/Bubba to start Bartles and call a few QB runs before putting in Studsrud. Quite certain that final extra point was good. Seriously can not say enough good things about Ratelle. Always in position and doesn't miss tackles. The stop on the goal line was an absolutely amazing play, hitting Prukop from the side and still preventing him from falling forward into the end zone (video stolen from twitter).

You make it sound like he's picking random players and heaping undeserved praise on them. Prukop was pre-season All-Big Sky, was leading the FCS in offensive yards/game and is a Payton Award candidate. Zenner was one of the best players in the country and frankly probably one of the most talented opposing players to play against UND in the Alerus. If you have that big of an issue with Berg recognizing incredibly talented opponents, I think its you that has the issue (not to mention your shot at Prukop is fairly unnecessary).

50% to win, or there will be a runoff between 2...

Bold prediction. Just curious why you think support for Fighting Hawks going to fall off that much? Students becoming apathetic about it and the process? -
I would have went Kenan Thompson for Matt Brownlow

I believe the saying is "If you have 2 QB's, you have none". Anyone know what happens if you have 3 QB's?

Doubtful, it is just no one has figured out what it is supposed to be yet.

I'm not sure first starts really are really comparable. Stick has been in NDSU's system almost 2 full years, including traveling with the team last year and taking the #2 reps since he's been on campus. Studsrud was a true freshman, on campus a couple months and running the practice team the week before his start. I think homer's main point was that in a vacuum, the stats that Studsrud is putting up (and winning with) are on par or better than what Stick did. Bison fans were happy with that, UND fans have not been. I get your point about it being his first start though.

Rejected headlines: "Local Man Still Has No Clue" or "Former Mayor Saves Money on Stationery, Wastes on Filings"

What are the proper channels? The consulting firm was hired to help with the committee. The committee has been disbanded.

Kudos to Dr. Kelley for listening to people and doing what was right. This was the right decision (that admittedly only came about because of self-inflicted circumstances made with good intentions that went bad).
-
Same.

When/If Fighting Hawks win since that is what is rigged to happen...

What exactly was the glorious plan? The company line has always been that the "administration" was in favor of Sundogs. That ended up last in the poll. Now somehow they masterminded Fighting Hawks to come in first? Or they somehow managed to get Nodaks and Roughriders within what would generally be the statistical margin of error and felt that because of how close they were, both should be included? Which for the record is a decision I disagree with, but I digress. Trying to make everyone feel included isn't exactly what I would call a glorious plan. -
is it time to change the GFC-RR district boundary line?

Clearly KnightRiders. The combined girls hockey team already has that covered. -
Can't say I really blame the guy. Need to get back to making the QB uncomfortable. Dropping the LB's back isn't helping the pass defense, so might as well send them.
-
I agreed with you until you got to part where somehow a nickname that was eliminated by the committee should get a bye straight into the finals? Not sure how that makes any sense or adds credibility.

There will be an NBA Hall of Famer on the bench when Montana State visits Grand Forks March 4. http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-basketball/3869783-womens-basketball-john-stockton-takes-job-montana-state-will-face-und

Yes, shame on me for not going around and making knee jerk statements based off of incorrect information. The amusing part is that it was cited in the original post. There's already more than enough misinformation going on with this giant mess, you'd think we could at least get the school colors right.

Brings back nightmares of the game two years ago when it was looking respectable and possibly be 21-7 going into half before MSU scored three TD's in the final 3:18 of the first half to take a 42-7 lead.

The official colors of the University are Green and Pink. The official athletic colors are Green and White. Last I checked, the nickname is for the athletic team. Why people can't get that right is beyond me.
-
He made the right decision on the first one, though he should have never reconsidered. I understand (but don't agree) with trying to be all inclusive this time around, but you need to set it up so that there is a majority winner. Trying to make everyone happy (or feel included) is just causing more anger and giving people plenty of ammo to question a process they didn't agree with to begin with.

Putting an incoming president in charge of this dumpster fire wouldn't improve the process. On top of it, he's now in charge and the one everyone can point the finger at., because there is going to be an unhappy group regardless of outcome. Not a good way to start off your presidency. This was Kelley's job to finish from the day he was hired. Despite not agreeing with every decision made, I am willing to give him credit for at sticking around long enough to try to resolve it instead of passing the it on, especially since it has taken a few years longer than anyone imagined.
-
Kudos to Hunter for not dragging out his decision or putting the Twins in a position to have to make a choice. Don't agree with a lot of his off the field/clubhouse stuff, but his on the field performance speaks for itself (last few years notwithstanding). He always to watch patrol center field in the Metrodome.

Have also saw this on various social media platforms today. If people truly are hanging their hat on that logo, they are going to be incredibly upset and claim they were sold a false premise even though UND has had zero to do with that logo floating around.
