Well put, and for what it is worth, I appreciated all of the NDSU fans that pulled for us. Including the very classy Carson Wentz tweet. No way in hell I'll cheer for NDSU when we are playing against you, but I'll certainly admit that I've pulled for the Bison in Nat'l Champ games, or in games against FBS opponents. I may be a little different, because my in-laws are huge Bison fans, but who do I have a more vested interest in. NDSU or Sam Houston? NDSU or K State? NDSU or Jacksonville St? NDSU or IA ST? Etc. Its the obnoxious fans, that will look for any little way to put down UND, even moments after a nat'l championship, that gets irritating. Unfortunately we have some of those fans too. Anyway, lets make some noise in football, dance in basketball, and hang number 9 in hockey. Go SIOUX!

I'm not ready to condemn the whole bulk of NDSU fans because of this article. I actually watched the game surround by NDSU fans. I took a few jabs, but for the most part they wanted to see the Sioux (Hawks - that was one of the repeated jabs) as much as I did (ok, maybe not quite as much). This speaks more to me of the obnoxious youth (I'm only 30), that feel the need to share their opinion with out looking at the full scope of the situation. This person is offended by UND chanting Go Sioux and Sioux Forever, but apparently not by their own fans chanting Sioux Suck S%#T. For the record, I'm not overly offended by that, it is simply an opposition chanting against a rival. What I'm opposed to, is criticizing the use of a particular nickname when you feel it suits your interest. Really, I didn't even finish reading this article because of how thin the meaning was behind it. This is no better than any of your "overly" PC crowd that like to kick and scream, but if you ever asked them to give a real description of what or why this offended them, they would have no substance behind their opinion. In general, I'm more disappointed with the author of this article than I am in NDSU or their fans. To bulk together the views of all Bison fans with this moron would be the equivalent of bulking together all the people at UND or in GF, with the moron English teacher that hates ROTC. I'll step down off my soapbox now.

Exactly my point ... thank you! Hope he kills it with the Wild.

ok, I think people are beating a dead horse with the Anas injury. I don't think the kid was really just whining or being a baby. I think he was seriously injured to the point where the pain was excruciating and he was trying to toughen his way through it. If anything is upsetting here, it is the medical staff for QU not sitting the kid, when he clearly had a substantial injury. If they do their job, then the kid isn't going back to the locker room multiple times. I appreciate athletic toughness, but there is a point where you become a liability to the rest of your team and the yourself. The difference between UND and QU is only that injuries really don't tend to be discussed at UND. Even so, comparing any UND player's injuries to Anas's is a ridiculous discussion. Seeing how nobody here has complete knowledge of what Anas was playing with, compared to any other player at UND or in the league. I know we like to think UND player are all the toughest SOBs out there, be some of you need to take your green glasses off for a minute.

What is the general consensus here. The longer we go without additional departures, the more likely these kids are to stay? Or will some of this drag well into the summer?

Mafia Wins!

For what its worth, that guy follow up his tweet saying he was just chirpin, and that Stecher was a Stud that he wanted to see him in Edmonton.

I was just at scheels last weekend, couldn't bring myself to buy anything that said hawks. Did find a ND hockey shirt though, had to go that route.

No feather would leave you with a naked bird. That is just inappropriate, not to mention offensive to all nudists. C'mom Man!

disappointed me when I got to UND and heard the sport had been dropped just a few years prior to me getting there, or I likely would have gone out for the team. Frustrating to have opportunities limited because of something like Title IX. Can't tell me there isn't a better approach out there.

He was overlooks by MANY as a high school recruit. So long as he plays to his potential, I don't expect him to be overlooked by NFL scouts.
-
Just got my National Championship t-shirt, but man do you they gouge you for it. Ouch.
-
Yeah, he was as obnoxious as always. They're not a big fan of him over there. Sick of him talkin up Bohl.

So put the women's hockey team in Volleyball shorts ... problem solved. ok, I'm sorry that was terrible

Could I also say we may have some non-conference tournament games in Chicago next spring!!

Goofers at Mariucci

The Grady news is just awesome. Hope the secondary can live up to the talk that we have about them regarding improvement. Can't wait for Football to start. It was a great hockey season ... Now it is Football's turn! It all starts with the Spring game. Hopefully a lot of these Freshman intend to be on campus this summer. When I was on the Bowling Green message boards, they have us inked in as an auto-win. Let's go get them! Stony Brook first of course, but I'm really excited to see what we can do against BGSU.

Referring to what? When they win #8, there is another big donation? haha

I assume you are talking about Jim, Jack and Johnnie? Those are some loud voices to compete with -
Big news! They will maintain all sports programs and fire the ROTC hating English professor. Bring your own tar and feathers!

No doubt it was smart for LJ to comeback this year. Definitely rounded out his game nicely. Couldn't even count how many shots he whiffed on last year. Much better play this year. also a kid who's play doesn't always translate to the stat sheet. I definitely liked having LJ on the ice much more this year.
-
Really hope Cam ends up sticking around too. For not really knowing much about the kid when he was stuck behind Zano, I've really enjoyed watching him this year. Kids always looks calm, cool and like he is just out there having fun. Of course, it is easy to looking like you are having fun when all you do is win
-
Heard this as well. He should stick around for another year. Would be very beneficial for him.
-
haha, cuz we're all so pumped for next season!!!
-
Thats what I thought. In fact there were some games, where people on here were calling for him to get benched because of way too many costly errors.
