No idea looking up that tv schedule was enough research for me if you or anyone else wants to search for the ratings feel free.

The first 2 rounds of the FCS playoffs were only on ESPN 3 as were 2 of the quarterfinals. The other 2 quarterfinals were on ESPN and ESPN 2. One semifinal was on ESPN2 and the other on ESPNU while the championship was on ESPN2. ESPNU/ESPNnews had about 8 Big Ten hockey games on this past season. I don't believe the NCHC TV deal with CBSSN allows for our games to be televised by ESPN. The NCAA hockey tournament had 5 1st round games on ESPNU, 1 on ESPN 2, and 2 on ESPN 3. The 2nd round games were 3 on ESPNU and 1 on ESPN 2 while both Frozen Four semifinals were on ESPN2 and the National Championship was on ESPN.

Agreed I didn't even really notice it during the frozen four.

I wouldn't say they've choked in every NCAA tournament loss for the last 10 or so years like you implied. Some of the years they even outperformed expectations going into the tournament but I guess that is your opinion.

Just a pathetic comment I'd like to see you say that to some of those players faces that do so much for the university and help put it on a national stage every season.

Drake Caggiula ‏@drakecaggiula Jul 21 The University of North Dakota will forever be known as the Fighting Sioux...a name the resembles COURAGE... Gage Ausmus ‏@Gausmus47 Jul 21 Wow who is on this committee #joke #SiouxForever Bryn Chyzyk ‏@chyz21 Jul 21 Troy Stecher ‏@troystecher Jul 21 I'm sure the athletic alum and current student on the committee voted UND #1 for a reason. Listen to the voices that matter. #SiouxForever Just a few quick reactions from the current players on Twitter. I don't think you will see them speaking out too much about whatever the new nickname/logo is but I also don't envision the hockey program really embracing the new nickname/log anytime soon instead just using North Dakota and UND primarily. Ausmus is this seasons captain and Stecher, Caggiula, and Chyzk are all assistant captains.

I would think almost all hockey fans know by now that the new banner won't be able to have the Fighting Sioux logo on it and will instead have the ND on it. Anybody who sees the banner and gets pissed about that issue really hasn't been paying attention.

Well that would be a surprise to me. The players sure aren't embracing the no nickname option being gone right now and I guess I really don't see that changing anytime soon.

I'm just saying I don't think the team will really embrace it and the North Dakota script will remain on the front of the uniforms rather than putting a logo on the front. There may be a very small logo on the shoulder or something but I would bet the logo will not be a very prominent part of the uniform. It isn't like it is an uncommon thing to see a teams name on the front of the jersey rather than a logo in hockey anyway.

I'm pretty sure the coaching staff has some input in what style of jerseys they want and I'm willing to bet they will just stay with the North Dakota script jerseys. It isn't like it is uncommon to see hockey jerseys with the name spelled out across the front rather than going with a logo on the front.

I have a hard time believing the hockey team will really ever embrace or use the new nickname/logo no matter what it is. I think they will just stick with the current uniforms they have now and continue to use North Dakota. If they won a title this year I also wouldn't be at all surprised if they made sure to somehow incorporate the Fighting Sioux name/logo in post game celebration especially in the locker room. It was cool this year that we still got to see the Fighting Sioux logo during hockey games as Zane had a patch on his chest protector and you could make it out under his jersey especially the white jerseys pretty easily.

Twins have now lost 3 in a row and with 2 games left with the Angels followed by 3 with the Yankees and 2 with the Pirates they are in a pretty tough stretch of games that could determine whether they really end up being contenders or not before the trade deadline.

I only meant for the poll on here so not like it matters anyway. I do agree with you Sun Dogs is the worst case scenario and if I get a real vote it definitely would not be for that but I'm not sure what it would be for. I wouldn't be at all surprised if when the new logo/nickname are implemented hockey just continues with the North Dakota jersey style and no logo sticker on the side of the helmet.

Always kind of a guess as to when certain guys will come in but looks to me like you have all the current commits listed there.

It isn't anything to make me feel any kind of way or anything I need to think about. I'm sure I won't be the only person who continues to call the teams Fighting Sioux and wear Fighting Sioux stuff rather than get on board with a new nickname either.

Couple reactions I've seen on Twitter not happy about no nickname being eliminated Mike Commodore ‏@commie22 36m36 minutes ago @SchlossmanGF if it can't be Fighting Sioux I don't see what's wrong with keeping University of North Dakota. I liked that. Mike Commodore ‏@commie22 34m34 minutes ago @SchlossmanGF and who is this guy talking about "its time to show courage"? Is he serious? That time passed awhile ago. https://twitter.com/chyz21

That would seem really stupid to see what the public thinks when it isn't an option and then when they see the public likes it were they gonna go back and fix there mistake and make North Dakota an option again?

Since it can't be just North Dakota now I guess I don't care what it ends up and won't vote for any of these nicknames. I will continue to call the teams the Fighting Sioux. I will continue to support the teams especially men's hockey but will not buy any merchandise with the new nickname/logo on it.

Never really thought of Gerlach as much of a risk to go the WHL believe when he committed he had said he was a big fan of Sioux hockey and always dreamed of playing for UND. Not sure how true it actually is but seems to me kids outside our traditional recruiting areas are a lot bigger risk of bolting for the CHL. Gerlach from Texas, Miller from Ohio, Koules from California, and Mantha from Michigan to name some.

Voltin hasn't been a recruit for a while now and I would think the other guys will all come in next year. Cakebread didn't have a good year at all with Fargo last year and if he has the same type of season this year I could see him never ending up on campus.

Twins go into the All Star break at 49-40 good for the 2nd best record in the AL behind Kansas City.

I would be very surprised if he doesn't end up playing at a JUCO somewhere this fall and if he plays well and stays out of trouble there somebody will give him a 2nd chance.

Completely agree, it still isn't an excuse for what he did and he shouldn't have ever reacted that way but I do think she should also face some sort of penalty for her actions.

Not excusing the QB's actions at all as what he did was very wrong and he should have just walked away but did the woman face any punishment in this? It looks to me like she plays a big part in it by threatening to punch Johnson first and then kneeing him in the groin area and punching him when he tries to restrain her. I also see Johnson's lawyer has come out and said the woman provoked Johnson with racial comments as well. I would think Johnson will get another chance probably spend a year at a JUCO and if he plays well many teams will probably be after him again. http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/13215817/deandre-johnson-was-provoked-woman-racial-remarks-lawyer-says

I could see him getting a start in September if the Twins have already been eliminated from playoff contention or maybe coming up if the Twins have a couple starters go on the DL during the 2nd half of the season.
