Not quite sure I get your stepping stone comment? He only has two years of eligibility left, Mankato will be his last stop. In regards to distance from home, Mankato is 220 miles and roughly 3 hours closer than Grand Forks is from Brooklyn Park. Not a huge distance but plausible enough to use as one of his reasons.

Per Wayne Nelson, as of yesterday the application list was up to 53. Two new notable applicants: -Iowa St. asst. HC Bill Bleil -Miami of Ohio interim coach Mike Bath

Your threshold for miracles is pretty low then.

NDSU has similar issues that didn't make it to the media as well as ones that did. Why some and not others? Guess the hometown papers miss some things. Right, wrong or indifferent, every problem doesn't get covered.

Explain to me how Faison was involved? He was in meetings when the package showed up, someone else opened it and tweeted a picture. When he found out about it, he called Taylor and told him about it. As for the second part, not sure where to start, but making completely false comments about the hockey team being related to a murder seem to indicate you have issues of some sort.

Well, comments like this are pretty interesting: Not all incidents have been reported in the press at NDSU, so not sure what your point on that is. And Faison had zero to do with the banner thing and I'd like for you to point out a single time he has called a press conference to poke fun at NDSU?

I think the same could be said about you. I don't think I've seen a single person say that Hardee should have kept his job or got his day in court.

Not what I was referring to. People make mistakes, the media doesn't report all of them, likely because they don't catch everything. Happens in Grand Forks, happens in Fargo, happens everywhere. If it was put in there that he was verbally reprimanded, then it is there. Conversations like that are usually documented for review and future reference.

Your input and clarification is appreciated.

This spring. All rental company's disclose that they reserve the right to check your driver's license history when you sign the rental agreement. They have access to a database with traffic violations in them. Whether they run it or not every time is up to them. There was something put in his file, so I guess there is that, so I'm not sure in the grand scheme of things if there is a huge difference. And I can guarantee you that every incident in Fargo has not made the media. A simple records search can verify that.

Huh? A coach gets a DUI, is reprimanded and told if he has another screw up and he's gone. Coach screws up, put on leave for 3 days before he resigns (which likely came before he was going to be fired). Just curious how you think it should have been handled differently? The only thing I'm not sure on is the driver's license issue, but I don't have enough details to understand what is going on with that. If a rental company gave him keys to a vehicle, obviously they were under the assumption he had a valid license as well and they usually are pretty thorough on checking that.

Since you seem to want to compare, what would be the punishment if a coach at NDSU were to get a DUI? And what if it didn't make the media, would it be a cover-up?

Wow. For being a sport that doesn't matter down south, Volleyball sure is getting a lot of attention from the FU faithful. Faison has handled this situation correctly as unfortunate as it may be. To say he didn't know about the first DUI when he stated there were disciplinary actions put in Hardee's file is pretty dumb. He's not going to lie about that.

Really? Seems like CAS is stating that if something isn't in the paper, it must be a cover-up by the athletic department. Slippery road to go down...

Players leave teams every year for a variety of reasons. Will it be more noticeable this year? Probably, but I don't think by that much. It does look like it may end up including a few bigger names this year though.

Fine. Are you sure that all of the NDSU coaches transgressions have been in the paper? I mean you wouldn't be on your high horse if that wasn't the case...

I believe Miller only said he thinks BB will apply.

Weird how the Herald list had more names on it than McFeely's if it was a cut and paste job. The Herald did have a list before McFeely's came out as they hadn't seen Marshall's name yet. I guess they were waiting until the end of the week to put out a list of candidates that likely won't have a chance at the job.

That is quite a glass house you are throwing rocks in. Doesn't look like Hardee's DUI shows up in a public records search. Will be interesting to see what the results of the Portland investigation is.

Idaho State did. They were the #3 seed and ended up winning the tournament. 14-6 conference record vs. 17-3 for both UND and PSU.

What are you talking about? UND beat SUU twice, 3-0 both times they played.

They made it sound like the story would be updated after the initial resignation was posted. I'm sure there will be some more details in the updates.

I agree that the TB situation is different and is old news but was handled poorly. Watching the FU faithful try to continue to spin it instead of admitting that is the amusing part.

So how many strikes does a player get? And does it reset if they have been suspended for a game?

Cooperating how? By trying to get away from them while handcuffed? You can't be serious... And my other point went over your head. It was in response to the FU fan said he "heard" the other guy wanted to take it outside because he had buddies with. Which contradicts Beck admitting multiple times on video that he told the other guy they should take it outside.
