UND's a 2 point underdog. Predicting that they roll with a 10+ point victory, salvaging a split.

You're telling me there is more than one person that illiterate??

And you also started not one but two Fire Muss threads along with another similar one in the middle of the football season. And yeah, sure seems like your only intent was to keep the game threads clean... In a roundabout way yes, I guess so? I guess they were picked 4th/6th in the coaches and media poll and I thought it was a little lower than that, but still thought they surprised some people. They probably would have been picked around the same spot in the preseason poll this year bringing everyone back this year, but regardless of that, they are still underachieving across the board this year.

I tend to ignore pretty much everything that happened during transition in relation to his performance, it had to be tough to get guys to play here. I'm amazed at the current senior class that Jones was able to put together when he basically recruited with nothing to sell them. Last year, I think his team overachieved by finishing 3rd and taking Weber to the wire in the semi's, pretty sure no one predicted either of those things to happen. This year I think they are underachieving based on what their results were last year, but the season isn't over.

Quite the deductive reasoning you used to get to that conclusion. I don't like this thread because it was started 5 games in to the conference schedule and some people think that putting someone out of a job should be a knee-jerk decision after every loss. Again, I'm disappointed how the season has gone but I am pretty confident Jones remains employed even if he doesn't win a game the rest of the year unless you or someone is going to write a check that says otherwise. And even then, I am pretty confident that he will still be coaching at the start of next season. Never said that history always repeat itself, but almost every single year his team has played its best basketball at the end of the year. That's called a trend and I'm hopeful that it continues.

I don't disagree with a lot of what you wrote. My point is that it is just sad and frankly embarassing that it is so predictable to see a "Fire Coach X" comment or thread after every single loss. Not going to deny that the regular season has been disappointing and quite honestly impossible to understand or predict. Jones teams have histroically gotten hot at the end of the year, hoping that the trend continues.

Fox Sports North Plus. 339/639 on Midco Grand Forks.

1 1/2 game lead in the conference standings, keep it up ladies!

Which is also tied for 3rd in the conference, right in the neighborhood of where they were picked to finish in the conference in the preseason.

Have him put up a fence and gfhockey won't stumble through, messing it up on his way to the next bar.

Why? Its not happening this year. The reaction to every single loss for UND athletic teams on this website is embarrassing.

I figured a split on this road trip, was hoping they'd get the win tonight and prove me wrong Saturday.

Sac St passes the ball around for 34 seconds and get a layup to move it to 8 points. UND misses a 3, Traylor with the offensive rebound and one to bring it to a 5 point game with 50 seconds to go.

Big charge call on Nash, not sure I agree. Sac St gets 2 layups to go up by 10, Webb answers with a 3 to cut it to 7 with 2:26 to go.

Trying to figure out this team is maddening. They are scary when they figure it out but it is always to fleeting. Had a chance to cut it to 4 but 3/4 court pass to Huff was overthrown. Good play, try to make that one every time.

I would tend to agree more if the exact same thing wasn't happening on almost every single campus across the US. Becoming way too admistration heavy, tuition continuing to climb, etc.

So if Hak wins one this year does that mean York or Lucia should get fired since they have the best teams and can't bring one home? Or is Lucia still living on the pair he won over a decade ago? Just asking questions.

All he's going to read in that is the word party.

^^^^^^^^^ Wow, now you aren't even typing straight, let alone being coherent. Setting new bars everyday (along with spending all day in them I suppose).

I'd be curious to see the actual usage numbers on the online subscriptions they are cutting. If they are still making the same information available, though with a slightly longer wait time, for something that gets used a handful of times a year but costs an excessive amount of money, than it makes sense.

I believe that is the plan. While the med school may be incredibly outdated for its current use, they will be able to convert it into a useful building for multiple things. There isn't a whole lot of extra room on campus, getting rid of some of those buildings will help them free up some.

Score 3, give up 2 or less. Clear eyes, full heart, can't lose.

Huh? Somehow Faison is moving the goal posts by agreeing to what GT originally proposed? Faison's latest offer wasn't an every year contract. Seems to me that implies that GT has moved the goal posts since he hasn't agreed to what he wanted all along, a one time home/home contract.

Well after, Faison was looking for an every year deal before UND had a conference. Faison sent Taylor a contract with the terms he requested. Maybe it got mixed in with the paperwork that GT continued to give Bohl access to after he had already accepted a new job?

Thought it was worth pointing out that UND is currently tied for 7th in the nation steals per game average 9.00/game.
