They also are in a league where the rest of the schools don't offer scholarships (currently). He was 3-40 in his 4 years there.

There is a lot of truth in this, but the last paragraph should hold true regardless of your thoughts on the coaching staff. At this point, I think a change should be made, though I won't be completely surprised if one isn't for a few various reasons. I am disappointed with the season and expect better, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to renew my season tickets and attend games to support UND. There will be room on the bandwagon when things get better, there always is.

Pretty cool picture. Mind letting inquiring minds know what program(s) you used to make that?

You keep saying that but it isn't true. Brian Faison's e-mail address and phone number are publicly available. He is also very approachable at many of the events he attends.

Anyone can contact the AD by phone or e-mail or even walk up and speak to him at many of the events he's at. That is not limited to donors, former players, etc and it may actually lead to some change or at least provides actual input. Bringing a sign like that to a game is not done to make your voice heard (and it won't have any effect), it is a "look at me, I need attention" move. Starting to feel a lot like someone who's appeared with multiple user names and worn out his welcome each time.

He was battling multiple injuries last year. The year before, when he was healthier, he shot a ridiculous 68.2% from the field. That was 5th in the nation. Brekke never has been a shot blocker though. I hope those other three are great this year, the problem is Traylor played all of 8 games last year and Salmonson and Cacaterra didn't play any, nor did Nash for that matter. I have no clue what to expect from any of them. I know what a healthy Brekke would provide though.

He's a career 62% shooter, pretty good even for a big man. And that is after a pretty good drop off last yearwhile he was battling injuries. And he's been playing with these guys for 3+ years, lots of familiarity. I think the issue with the other bigs is no one knows what to expect from them.

Was unaware of the 11 players traveling, very good insight. For some reason I always assumed that there were 12 on the bench, never knew that they limited i tto only 11 that travel.

Disagree 100%. You don't pull that kind of experience off the court in a season where you are basically going "all-in". Not sure I agree with pulling Hooker's red-shirt, but if Brekke isn't going to be able to play and Stefan isn't going to get a waiver, you could run with a pretty small line-up and play a lot of up and down basketball.

Luke has done a tremendous job on the recruiting side in Illinois. Bartels, Kuska, and Golladay have already shown they can contribute now. Reyes, Palandech, Sharp, Cheatom and Norberg look like they have some very good potential as well.

A one year anomaly on numbers that mean nothing when just looking at the bottom line with no context. Was there any one-time large expenses last year like, oh maybe new turf or something that could have possibly skewed that number?

Not sure he'd be eligible for one. Regardless, terrible news. Would love to have him back and throw a few dunks down on NDSU as a little payback (even though it was definitely an inadvertent elbow by Bjorklund). Would be a good match-up between those two.

I'd say the switches to the O-line helped out too, seemed liked there was a little more time in the pocket, though there was still too much pressure. I don't think either guy has come close to separating himself.

Might be above your reading comprehension but it was a fan of FU who was trying to tout the MVFC.

I believe it is in the media guide on undsports.com.

Wait, weren't Denver and CC in the WCHA and historically Hakstol did pretty well against them?

Similar to how the MVFC has done in the playoffs lately outside of NDSU?

Any coach who would be worth looking at is currently busy and will be through the end of the season.

Considering that they changed systems when Berry came in, I would guess that it came from Berry's input.

So now you're concerned about talking about the football team since I pointed out your contradicting posts? You obviously were concerned that the coaches aren't out at the bar enough since you are the one that brought it up.

Yoru post didn't say that someone else saw them, it was inferring that you saw them out. Regardless, you post about them being at the bar and make it sound like a bad thing and then a few weeks later post that they aren't ever at the bar and make that seem like a bad thing. Not that it really matters whether the coaching staff goes out and has a drink or two, but just wanted to make sure people knew how seriously to take your posts.

Not that your credibility was ever all that solid to begin with, but...

Just curious, is it possible we have offered Wilkie and it just hasn't been reported? I'm guessing there are quite a few offers out there we don't know about. I don't think anyone knew about Ferguson until his verbal was reported.
