Don't think so. We recruited a kid from mandan in the same class who is being groomed as a DB who was also a little better QB than Hanson.

That is his specialty! He has about 15 different inflections of "my oh my"....my favorites are dismay and disappointment. He is so aweful it is almost like he is a parody of a sports announcer.

IALTO!

I am looking forward to UND playing in that tourney next year! Of course my brother lives there. Nice arena, Fun area to visit.....If the dominos start to fall and more teams start making the jump to D1 hockey look for Florida Gulf Coast University to explore the option. They recently transitioned to D1 and their sports are doing well. They explored football and decided not to do it for now. They have very strong club hockey programs and draw pretty well......the ECHL team that plays at that arena draws pretty well and won the Title last year.

And he pisses on your toilet seat and grabs another beer out of your fridge....looks like it's gonna be 2:30 before he stumbles home tonight.

Interesting that the guy who would have been his new head coach started the year as his position coach and might have at least had some hand in recruting him? Not sure of the timing of his committment, but if he didn't have a hand in recruting him to NIU then he was likely trying to recruit him to UND where he used to hold the same position.

More than likely a Checkers team.

Not so sure. If St. Clair can't match up skill wise on that line I think Chyzyk would get a shot.

I also own the 87 dream team print. have it framed on my wall. picked it up pretty cheap

Pop goes the weasel!

The worst part was the idiot running the cameras spent more time showing the crowd and kids dancing than the game....when they did show the game it was very choppy.

Good for Marcus...blood is thicker than water...or school affilitation. I remember Steve Feeney, former UND DB cheering on his little brother at QB for the Bison against UND.

Lines up on Betus.com Wofford -8 1/2 over UNH Central Arkansas +8 1/2 vs. Georgia Southern Old Dominion -13 1/2 over Coastal Carolina Illinois St. +3 1/2 vs. Appalaichan St......Illinois State wins outright Cal Poly +12 vs. Sam Houston State SDSU +8 1/2 vs. NDSU Eastern Washington -21 over Wagner Montana State -11 over Stonybrook

Have stayed there almost every year for the Final 5 and also the Frozen 4. The hotel offers a shuttle to and from the arena as does Alarys Bar which is about a block away. If it is nice out, it is definitely walkable as well.

i would check again. your post just reminded me I hadn't booked a room yet. Just booked a corner suite for Thursday through Saturday night!

It is the Embassy Suites....free breakfast in the morning as well! Block and a half from Alarys...jump the shuttle to the arena and you are all set.

well that would be 6 or 7 years down the road assuming that Jeff moves into a head coaching job in the next 2 years and then has 3 or 4 years of success(20 win seasons, national tourney appearances at d2 level)....his older brother and UND alum Mike might be on a quicker track. Currently head coach at Bemidji State in his first year their taking over for a 22 win tournament team from last season.

Well, not that it is a great excuse but we had our kicking team on the field when they called a timeout and when we came back out with our offense after the timeout it likely led to some quick player changes.

I'll take a crack at the first couple rounds. SDSU 31 E. Illinois 27 Villanova 34 Stony Brook 21 Bethune Cookman 23 Coastal Carolina 20 Wagner 30 Colgate 24 NDSU 27 SDSU 21 Montana State 45 Villanova 28 Old Dominion 52 Bethune Cookman 21 Eastern Washington 54 Wagner 17 New Hampshire 33 Wofford 24 Sam Houston State 38 Cal Poly 30 Georgia Southern 24 Central Arkansas 20 Appalachan State 28 Illinois State 17

NDSU's first game will likely be their toughest game until the Title game.

I agree. obviously the autobids are not considered as to who gets in when. Coastal Carolina, Colgate, Wagner, and Bethune Cookman are all teams that would not be in this field if not for the autobids so technically SDSU got in after them.

Looking at the playoff bracket is all the more reason that their needs to be a sense of urgency for our football program. There are 4 teams in the field that I would lay 10-14 points on UND and 2-3 others that would be a pick-em. It doesn't take much to be a top 15 team in the FCS....we need to get their quckly and then worry about getting to the top 8-10 level which is another big jump.

NDSU did get the easiest potential quarterfinal game as they should as the #1 seed. But the play-in games and where they are in the bracket is a joke. You have SDSU and E. Illinois playing each other and Villanova and Stony Brook playing each other with NDSU and Montana State getting the winners meanwhile you have Coastal Carolina playing Bethune Cookman and Colgate playing Wagner to get to Old Dominion and Eastern Washington. Those 4 teams(C. Carolina, Bethune Cookman, Wagner, and Colgate) are teams UND should schedule to get easy D1 wins and get your 2nd and 3rd string reps....so not only does NDSU potentially get the best of those 8 teams to play they also get a conference foe as well....meanwhile the CAA is protected in that none of their teams would have to meet until the semi-finals while the MVC has a potential 2nd round matchup and Cal Poly if they get by SHSU would have Montana St. in the quarters. So if you realisticly look at the 8 teams playing the playin games you have #1 playing #4 and #2 playing #3 while the bottome 4 teams play each other.(3 were autobids that if they weren't would not be in and somehow Coastal Carolina got a bid over probably 8 or 9 teams that would boatrace them.
