I'm a season ticket holder for two sports and an alumni and haven't received one yet. Why am I not important?!

Actually no you didn't. Seems pretty cut and dry to me what you said. Maybe not what you meant, but definitely not what originally implied. And what was your specific example? The only building I can think of off the top of my head that was taken down in recent memory was the Old Ralph. And while there are a lot of memories in that building, taking it down for the IPF was the right choice and it is not even close.

The booster money behind those schools is in a completely different universe than what UND deals with.

So are you saying it is or isn't standard operating procedure at UND to tear down buildings? Or just another baseless assumption/accusation similar to them taking all the student tickets away? Seems like you read between a lot of lines that aren't there.

Hyslop and Memorial are still both used quite a bit. Memorial got new turf and some updates to the locker room (that will be moved to the IPF) within the last few years. No clue if its anywhere near financially feasible, but renovating the Hyslop for basketball would be great and give the Betty to the VB team.

That isn't what you said though: If it is standard operating procedure, then I'd assume there are multiple examples of this. I'm asking what buildings you were talking about because I can't really come up with any.

From what I understand: UND got approximately 2,500 that went to the Champions Club. Each of the schools that make it there will get something like a 500 ticket allotment. Using those numbers, there should have been around 500 left though I'm not sure if the student tickets came out of UND's allotment or there were additional tickets that went to them.

Champions Club got roughly half of tickets (2,500 or so). Very curious to how full those SRO sections are going to be.

What buildings are you referring to? Please don't say the old Ralph.

Not a fan of it and hope it doesn't come to it, but if necessary, I agree with this. It isn't fair to the rest of the players, especially the seniors who stuck with the program, to not put the players on the field that give you the best chance to win. Lifting Studsrud's redshirt this doesn't mean he couldn't redshirt next year or future year if necessary. If he isn't quite at the point where they had hoped, he could redshirt next year behind the two QB's who will be juniors.

I'd be pretty damn upset and embarrassed if I was a USD fan and had a coach giving interviews like that.

I think a better question is why would Joe Glenn make that comment in a post-game press conference regardless?

5dimes pre-game line: SUU -5 (-120) / -210 moneyline UND +5 (-120) / +160 moneyline O/U 43 (-120) My prediction UND moneyline + the under

Apparently one beat writer out of Terre-Haute is now the whole Indiana St media and speaks for all the schools. It'd carry a lot more weight if it came from one of the basketball/private schools, the ones who have no desire to add another football driven school. And the SIU play by play guy definitely disagrees with his feelings so not sure where the traction among the schools thing comes from.

Price was still the same at Valley Dairy late tonight. Well see how long until their prices move up.

Pretty sure they've had a table set up near the "Kid Zone" thing by one of the escalators in the past.

You may end up being surprised.

They will also be picked up by Fox College Sports so it isn't just a regional thing. Wonder if there will be some very similar announcements for some games of a few of the other winter sports coming soon....?

One needs to drive by the construction site to realize how massive this building is actually going to be. Very, very excited to see the finished product.

Not sure of my number, I could be higher up on the list than I thought. I'll have to check and see if I still have it somewhere.

Getting towards the bottom. Got a call for 2 standing room tickets. She said there were less than 50 tickets left. Not sure but think I'm somewhere around 2,000 or so on the list. Definitely did not expect a call.

UND nickname taskforce seeks input for naming process

I know you were already called out on this, but wow....talk about a flat out lie. Pelini may have some issues, but you seriously thought NDSU went into Big Red's backyard and took the top 3 guys in the state. This 24/7 list shows you got #'s 11 and 12. SDSU had #'s 7 and 8. Rivals gives you #'s 5, 8 and 10. But keep going with what you said. If you repeat it enough, it has proven to become a fact with the FU faithful. For the record, not knocking these kids, just amazed that you actually thought that. So a kid gets hurt his senior season and he shouldn't going to get recruited by anyone? Obviously you proved how big of a "fan" you were with the previous post, but NDSU and all other schools do continue to look at players they were previously interested in even if they get hurt. Pretty certain NDSU has gotten some players that have slipped through the crack due to injuries in high school (or not being academically qualified, etc). Just off the top of my head, while he's no longer with UND, Jameer Jackson would have easily played for NDSU. And as a true freshman, Dev Ferguson is well on his way as well.

Thanks John Madden. For the record, they are 1 and 2 respectively in that category, 9.7 vs. 11.0.

Take it up with the numbers, not me.
