Agreed that Coach K and Dean Smith didn't make too many stops at Grand Forks International Airport but talent wise he could step on any court and be on an equal level.

Boschee did not have UND #2 on his list. If a guy can go to Kansas and win Big 12 Freshman of the year honors, he could play at any program in the nation. Duke, UNC, Iowa, Michigan, Kentucky. If someone can go and play at a big time D-1 school he is not going to have UND on his list. UND was not #2 with "Big John" because he went to Northern Iowa when he transferred. If UND was #2 why didn't he transfer back home?

Jeff Boschee? John Godfread? Sorry to say but Rich doesn't stand a chance when the likes of Kansas and Utah are knocking on your door. To even think that UND had a shot at these kids is absurd.

So I read the article about Jeff breaking the NCAA records in the GF Herald today. Maybe I am reading this wrong but help me out here. The NCAA confirmed that Jeff broke two D-2 records......... Career Points (326) - David Purnell, NW Missouri State, 1996-99 & Career Field Goals (64) - Mike Wood, SW Missouri State, 1974-77 But then I read he also broke Cameron Peterka career UND marks of... Career Points (347) & Career Field Goals (65) Now I am not a math genius by any step of the imagination but shouldn't those NCAA records have belonged to Cameron in 2001? The NCAA.........proving that Native American Mascots is wrong, and math is even "wronger" GF Herald Article

Mr. Electricity? Pick it up Dan.

Congrats Jeff Glas!! UND's All Time Scoring Leader!!

Anybody have dataflix up yet?

I don't understand how trying to protect my health is being lazy. Isn't it just as lazy when smokers don't want to do something as simple as go outside to smoke?

Changing the name would also allow the school to host the playoffs and not have negative PR.

You smoking in a room of people puts everyone's health at risk. Me not smoking in a room of people puts no one at risk. See the difference. Is it too much to ask smokers to go outside?

I should've further explained my statement. Sometimes, yes, court is the only way to go and good will come from it. My statements were more geared towards a possible UND v. NCAA lawsuit.

I think the best thing to come out of this whole situation is that UND and Native American's can come to some sort of agreement here and make peace. There is no good that comes from people taking sides and battling it out in courts, etc.

I do not think that a court battle is something that either side wants. At first I was all for everything that UND could do to save it but certain posts from Mafia and ESPN have made me reconsider my stance. I think something gets lost in this argument and that is respecting peoples rights and wishes. Let me say that I still back the nickname but if the tribes vote to not back the nickname, then it might be time to rethink things. Yes, that is right. ESPNInsider & Mafia. You have made me see the light on this one. I agree with you. If UND loses the support of the tribes as shown by a vote, then you can't really say that it is an honor anymore. I personally thought that UND was trying to honor the Native Americans when they selected the name, and I still think they are, but if the people who are being honored don't see it that way, which I don't think will happen, then you have to rethink your stance.
