  1. Was it 57 tickets or 57 orders?
  2. OSU suspends starting running back 3 games despite assault charges being dropped Meyer says it was for "conduct not representative" of Ohio State.
  3. If that is the case, maybe NDSU should start putting ads for the SHAC in the "Courts" section of the Forum. They might finally get the donations to finish it while people are looking up what their favorite player has been up to.
  4. I'm sure you'll be the first to report it with the interest and knowledge you have in UND athletics.
  5. We'll see how true that is depending on who suits up against KSU the first game of the year. Or maybe offseason transgressions don't count. Or maybe they don't count if they aren't reported in the Forum. Time will tell...
  6. The game by game shows a record of 4-7. The expected overall record based on a combination of all the percentages is 6-5 record (5.88 wins and 5.12 losses). Obviously with no season data yet, they don't mean a lot but still something to help pass the offseason.
  7. You give the AD at DU much more credit than I do. Plus, I can see DU just moving out of the Summit (obviously not an issue to them) rather than trying to pull off the sort of scenario you are laying out there. But who knows....
  8. He played with that injury for a large portion of the year. If he is healthy, watch out.
  9. Re-read what I wrote. It has nothing to do with how NDSU handled it. And to my knowledge, Beck still has an charge against him for resisting, so not sure how that falls into the category of not being in any legal trouble.
  10. But how many fans actually care? Not pretend to care becuase it seems right or express fake outrage when it is a player on a rival team, but actually care? Most are more concerned about being entertained and would prefer to let it lurk in the shadows. Like all of the sudden it was a huge surprise to find out McGwire and Sosa weren't 100% clean? Most people choose to turn a blind eye because the home run chase was high quality entertainment. You are dead on with the winning part. Owner's need to field a winner to make money. GM's and coaches will take chances because if they don't win, they lose their jobs. No one is going to give them much more than a pat on the back with their pink slip if they lose a ton of games and while trying to claim the moral high-ground on having clean players. None of them will admit to knowing anything shady their players are doing if they are caught (or not caught) but they aren't blind either.
  11. Not quite sure what a last place conference school is, but I'll assume you are talking about USD or Idaho State?
  12. My guess is because it is a lot more rampant than people want to think. And its been going on forever. Players were using amphetimines and other substances back in the 60's.
  13. They have had enough issues this summer already without bringing in a transfer. Caillou and the gang haven't reported much on any of them yet though. They must have got too much heat from FU from how they handled the Beck issue.
  14. I was high on Golladay since he was recruited, but after recently talking to a former player and hearing what he had to say, I'm even more excited to see him develop the next few years. If he keeps putting in the work and can stay healthy, he can develop into something really special.

    Ticket sells

    Correct, if you have a tailgating pass you do not have to pay the $5 parking fee. Also, I believe if you try to do it on a game by game basis, you are not guaranteed a spot and there have been a few games in the past were there reserved section has sold out.
  16. Does the Fargodome actually operate in the black or do they use the same accounting methods the Alerus Center does as counting what they get from sales tax as revenue? Having a much larger tax base in Fargo is definitely an advantage. I thought one of the articles recently stated how the surplus the Fargodome has is from the sales tax that is expiring soon but can't remember how it was worded.

    Ticket sells

    This will be my 3rd year with football tickets and I finally was able to get hockey tickets this year after a few years on the waiting list. I have taken part of the young alumni discount the past few years (slightly different than the one they have now). Great way to entice younger people to start donating and be involved.

    2013 season

    Same as any other position, next man up. WR is the one spot on the team where depth is more than adequate, there will be some real good playes fighting for playing time.
  19. Looks like Notre Dame Prep in MA.
  20. He was originally a 2013 recruit but pushed himself back a year and is playing at a prep school this year.
  21. Not sure if it was officially put on here, but it looks like Jarvis Garrett officially reclassified to the class of 2014. We offered him a while back as a class of 2013 recruit. He has offers from Creighton, UW-GB, UW-M along with a handful of other mid-majors (all per Rivals) plus interest from some other bigger schools like Marquette, USC, Oregon St, OSU, Indiana and LSU. Looks to be a long-shot at this point.
  22. You can do better than that Dan. Storing e-mails in the trash folder? If only there was a feature that allowed a new folder to be created where unimportant e-mails could be stored. I will agree that it doesn't look like his intent was malicious, but it still doesn't make him look all that great. Anything Carlson can get on these guys is just ammunition for later, regardless of how small it is.
  23. First, your sentence makes no sense. Second, yes their is a list. I'm confused how money is being extorted? No one is being forced to buy hockey tickets. People voluntarily give the donation for the right to purchase tickets. I suppose UND could just figure it into the price of season tickets and they would be that much higher. But people probably like the tax donation aspect of the way it is done now. Regardless, I suppose you have some extra time to discuss it considering its a 100+ degrees down in Phoenix. Too warm to be out by the pool.
  24. Yes. Very valid comparison..... Feel free to not give the donation to have the right to purchase tickets. There is literally a list of a people waiting for the opportunity.
  25. From what I understand, UND is working with Nuelion to ensure that more resources are allocated on both ends to provide a higher quality. Whether they are able to actually provide that and handle the traffic is a huge question. What the Big Sky has is great. The biggest problem I had with it was the large variance in quality depending on which school's feed you were watching. I believe that Fullerton made a comment about setting a minimum standard for webcasts league-wide which would help with that issue.
