  1. i do it on purpose to see who "that guy " is...haha
  2. no just have them go thru some back tunnels and then come out at the main entrance of the conference center and have them walk south to the main arena....little kids can be lining both sides of the hallway with mini north dakota flags...divert a few (freshies) players to the concourse levels and have them go north to south on the inside concourses (with flags!)...drones showing the walk in the main arena.....takes about 3 for the walkup....pick whatever music but i would do classical (o fortuna or ride of the valyrikes) on the walkup ..when they hit the main arena ....then: everything goes dark for about 15 seconds....que the loud af explosions....then the the team runs onto the field using dropkick murphys, tupac, the killers, metallica music? your welcome.
  3. did you see who Drake lost to? so it would kill tom to just mention SOS in his piece? how many average fans know what the pioneer conference is?
  4. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/college/transfer-wesley-eliodor-finding-his-place-in-unds-no-1-ranked-offense this is why people don't trust the media anymore.......yes they are number 1 in offense but please use some context. 95 sos
  5. me thinks that mel might make out with MORE than his 95 million when this is all said and done....#kangaroocourt
  6. actually no....zach is pure garbage
  7. i'd take my chances with carson a thousand times over instead of zach wilson.................... wilson is clueless
  8. you plant a tree for the next generation.....plus the compounding interest will kick in the farther down the road you go. we were probably in Memorial for 20 years too long....where would UND football be if the Alerus would've been voted down (again). With how easy it is to use QR codes to send money they should be at every home game (vb, fb, bb, hockey) with a mock up of SOMETHING.....dare your drunk friend to drink and donate! get him to donate 10 bucks everytime he goes to get a beer! put grandpa on the spot and say "you can't take it with you claude"....and visually seeing on the scoreboard live during the game would be fun (especially at the ndac game...espcially if we win...would be fun to see how much was/would be donated by people leaving the alerus after eating a w!"
  9. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/38380947/tucker-denies-harassment-claims-calls-msu-hearing-ridiculously-flawed is this same lady that came to und a few years ago?
  10. jets uni's look sharp...und could do the all green and white with "hawks" on the glossy helmets?
  11. offense, defense, ST....need a "clean game"
  12. we used it first and have the trademark i think but since they use(d) it more we leased it to them or something stupid like that....
  13. boise on national tv for sure
  14. i actually dream of und football being relevant again......
  15. gonna laugh if delaware gets a MAC invite instead of the mighty mighty bizons....
  16. why would notre dame have any say in a potential logo that north dakota might have?
  17. maybe it's just that "N" that shoots lower in North Dakota that i don't really like?
  18. uff dah...buzzkill....yeah never seen that........but you could go a little more "gothic" like Duke?
  19. offset...probably not
  20. agreed...my nd offset logo would be great (i would ditch the giimeky font and go old schoold like duke or the other nd)
  21. one or two plays can decide a game and not "taking" the six when bo was wide open at nebraska can or could cost you game. same thing with drake....tommy pounding one into smith's ankle from 10 yards away when they are giving you six and you decide not to take it ...against "the big 3" that can't happen. (and iirc correctly we then left 3 off the board bc .......special teams)
  22. as plain jane these were they worked....and they were probably pretty cheap........
  23. I remember when the Alerus was built...wasn't too up to date on "is it UND paying......GF City...both?" When I found out that it was Publicly Funded and that UND would just rent it that was new to me. I then asked someone that knew about this stuff and he said UND doesn't have the money to build something like that and that it's a miracle that this will pass and if it does UND will have a nice indoor home for the next 50 years on the cheap (rent). I then said why isn't there any long-term strategic planning going on now for the next "Home of the Sioux"....good question he said. What if UND back in 1928? said this Memorial Stadium isn't going to last forever and always was planning really long term to raise money for the next Memorial Stadium? They didn't and that is water under the bridge but when UND got bailed out with the Alerus Center shouldn't the people at UND have a plan (and a way to pay it) for AFTER the Alerus Center? So if UND has a plan for after the Alerus Center should they have a plan to raise a large amount of money over time? How about 1 dollar from every FB tix sold goes into a "New Memorial Stadium Pot"....AND setup 4 fundraising booths at the Alerus for every home game. One in each corner of the upper concourse. At these fundraising booth you have nice looking ladies and guys with a mockup of a New Memorial Stadium over their shoulders and a QR code anyone can scan to donate thru Venmo, GPay, CashApp and whatnot. Obviously accept cash and checks too (for the cottontops) and pump it live to a little square on the scoreboards with a live amount raised during each home game (like the 50/50 pot)? and another square showing the current value of the "New Memorial Fund". So if we average 10K fans per game for average of 5 games per year and deposit it into a "lockbox" and assume 5 dollars per fan per 10K and the dollar per ticket with a 8% ROI....it would raise how much over 50 years? (i have google sheets number but wondering if the good finance guys would have a number?) 10,000 tickets sold at $1 per x 5 games=50k per year 10,000 tickets sold at $5 donation per fan x 5 games=250k per year so 300k per year at 8% ROI for 50 years=?
  24. i think you missed the point.
