  1. Um, ok. Well, no, it's not meaningless. Because the line at the very top of the story, the part bolded and larger font, is the definition of a headline, which is why I asked you to clarify. Now that you have, I can understand what you were saying. I didn't intend anything snarky from this, I just wanted to make sure I understood what you were saying. It's a pretty good statistic, particularly when you note (or someone did) that 40% is the average. So, I just don't see it as irresponsible. You, like myself, don't think it's a big deal that UND has no female coaches. I see nothing wrong with that. However, it probably shouldn't be ignored that UND has some sort of a perception based on this, now. The Herald reported on that. Pretty simple. At the end of the day, take whatever you want, I just don't think that Brad nor the Herald did anything nefarious with that story. Like it or not (I frickin' HATE it), this kind of story is a story, these days.
  2. New AD Chaves aware of UND's lack of female coaches That does not seem sensational to me, whatsoever. It seems incredibly accurate in the story as it became more about Chaves' response. Or, are you referring to the "headline" as "UND is 1 of 2 schools in the NCAA with no female HCs"? I don't see what additional context would help with, here. NDSU having 3 female HCs would be considered "not good", I'd guess, but UND is at the bottom. That and how Chaves' plans to address it (again, not that I care hahaha), is the story. We're all picking on something kind of silly here, I think.
  3. I feel like your point is a bit short-sided, but I get it completely. The news is UND has no female HCs. That news is reported. The context of UND vs. all of NCAA seems much more prevalent, to me, particularly since UND is 1 of 2 without one. Not how I feel about the media, but to each, their own my friend. Again, I've spent too many typestrokes on this, already haha. I literally DO NOT care that UND does not have a female HC lol.
  4. This is fair. Maybe we've all got a case of paranoia, a bit.
  5. The paper serves Grand Forks and its communities. Not Fargo or Brookings or Vermillion. I do agree that it provides FURTHER context, but the simple point of UND not having a female head coach is made. Not sure, you should email him. I'm certainly not going to because I do not give a single Ef lol.
  6. Right, and he made the comparison. To me, the context is UND in comparison to the NCAA and not UND's peers. I guess I don't see it as lazy.
  7. Not sure what would preclude Brad to need to compare UND and other schools. His fact pretty much summed it up that UND is one of 2 schools that will not have a woman head coach. Why the need to compare to others? To make it seem ok? Lol Btw, I couldn't care less if UND doesn't have a woman head coach in the system as jobs should be based on merit, not gender, but I don't think it makes Brad lazy for not comparing UND to area schools.
  8. And this is the sad world we live in.
  9. Did Moser get a new name?
  10. I find it so awesome on multiple levels that JBD had the most amount of pullups at the combine
  11. Coming in 19-20.
  12. Oh my God, I am the winner.
  13. Definitely understand, I just am going by what I've read and heard.
  14. No. 1 with a bullet.
  15. Hmmm. I'm certainly hoping this is the case, but I'm thinking this is a bit high of a bar.
  16. He's a borderline 1st rounder. Likely 2nd. With that said, he's very, very good.
  17. He's definitely coming next year. Big get for Bubbs. Loving this 2019 class.
  18. Told ya, GF
  19. Hahaha no. More of hoping, I guess. Because I think it'll be funny to burst people's narratives around here.
  20. My guess?? Very soon.
  21. Wait, but, I thought they had to be a first rounder? Aka... they are only a blue chipper at pick 32, but not 33. This CAN'T be the definition
  22. I just don't see a large enough trend to say that we aren't... So, if JBD and/or Tychonick get drafted at No. 31 instead of 40, this sprinkles the magic fairy dust on them to make them blue chip? C'mon.
