Didn't say it was illegal, but definitely in the gray area. They had to go above and beyond and purchase separate audio tapes to steal the audibles. I have no problem with it. You also ignored the rest of the links. All teams are guilty of stretching the rules.

Condolences to the NDSU family, way too young. Didn't know him but have some mutual friends and they all spoke highly of him.

And now poaching from St. Cloud State? This one isn't even a PWO...

Not a NE fan by any means but wow, let the hate flow... When Shula was signed by the Dolphins, Miami was charged with tampering and lost a draft pick. In 1985, they were caught stealing opposing teams radio signals. They have also been accused of stretching the rules on obtaining and studying audio of QB cadences, in particular, Tom Brady's. In 2011, Chad Henne was quoted about learning the new offense from the offensive coordinator, during a time frame when there was to be no contact with coaches. But keep pretending that Miami is completely innocent. All teams do things in the gray area, not even an argument.

Official UND release on Signing Day party:

The last few years, some of the transfers have been in attendance at the signing day party. Obviously none of the high school kid are there. Has been a good crowd and fun to hear the coaches talk about the recruits.

No news is good news type thing I'm hoping.

Just so we're clear, C is UND violating the spirit of the agreement and being the only school in the nation without a nickname correct?

Quit reading after all the excuses. You don't put yourself in a position to let the refs make those calls in OT. UND had their chances tonight. They roll tomorrow but gave it away tonight. Omaha is for real though.

Is this what the Flickertail faithful thought as well? The only thing that has always been consistent and never changed is The University of North Dakota, not a nickname or logo.

Signing class announced. Per UNDSports.com

Did you miss the part where UND does not currently have a name despite what you want to think?

Agree on the first part and as they say, you are what your record says you are. I do think this team has the capability of being above average and winning a game or two in the conference tournament, mainly because Shanks becoming eligible and playing more minutes (34 last night) has made this team significantly better. But close losses are still losses. Big question is whether or not they can figure it out before they end of the year. Honestly I have no clue. Thought the win at Idaho and 1st half of the EWU game were a step in the right direction. Then a collapse in the second half and letting one slip away at home last night (again).

Curious on your personal opinion on the following: 1)What changes would be needed under the current agreement you would find it acceptable to reinstate the nickname 2)What changes would be needed for UND to actually consider reinstating the nickname

Agree. I've seen a lot more protests/marches/etc about what still remains than what isn't here any more.

You might be more relieved on Wednesday when the faxes start coming in

Usually a lot to go west out of Fargo but they do fly out of GFK as well. Multiple factors determine which place they fly out of. Last week they did fly to MSP en route to Moscow out of Fargo but they will also typically catch flights to Denver out of Fargo rather than going east to MSP.

Yep....

Have I mentioned I enjoy watching Hooker?

de Ruen with his 4th with 10 to go.

This team is fun to watch. Lots of effort.

Shanks looking very good and getting lots of minutes. Hooker so fun to watch. Seems like everyone on Weber can hit from deep. UND doubling hard down low when Weber gets it in the post, we'll see how long that works. Cashman looked good in his first half minutes.

Nothing out of the realm of possibility. B1G winner will likely have a higher PWR than the AHA winner. #2 overall seed could get a fairly unlucky draw (assuming they don't do any shuffling).

Agreed. Host team will have to win 2 games instead of 1 to make it to the championship now making it slightly tougher but I don't think attendance will be nearly as good at a neutral site. Unless you're putting it at a very easy location for multiple fanbases to get to, the footprint of the conference is huge and you're taking away a guaranteed large crowd from the host school.

There's always tickets for sale. A lot of it will depend on what other schools are sent to Fargo. If it is 3 teams that aren't close or don't travel well, their allotment will end up being released. If there is another team that is close by, that will help drive up the price. If Minnesota were to somehow make it and be sent here instead of South Bend....yikes.
