SIOUXFAN97

hey bincity where u getting these game dates from? have they releasedthe full schedule or from the weekly press conference or something?

old school championship green!!!!!!!!!!

what's the over/under on how many days til blais is head coach of u o minny?

When's Mashpun making up his mind? He kind of looks like Myron Allen!! Remember him?

I knew Mathison was a walk-on but I was unsure about Stockdale...

It's pretty obvious that the Sioux need a few big guys to compete in the Big Sky....Problem is a lot of scholarships are being used up on the sophomore class. Does Coach Jones pull scholarships from Archer, Stockdale, or anyone else and try to get some guys with some size instead. Also, can't you find someone from the football team or something to be a practice player/reserve instead of Mathison? Just wondering how this would go down if Jones does this or does stick with them like he did with Monsebroten? I think Jones still knows that his leash is somewhat short or else he wouldn't have played two true freshman....so hopefully he keeps the ball rolling for 2012. Just wondering....

Nice game for the guys but.... why does mathison play ahead of doug archer. mike got a three second call, offensive foul, and a missed jumper in four minutes. doug had a blocked shot, offensive rebound, and a layup in a four minutes? didn't like the "four corners" plays at the end of the game for the sioux... webb was awesome in the second half nice webcast...gonna be nice to have that we we join the big sky..

My take on Idaho is all or nothing. I don't like the everything except football. The Big Sky kind of holds all the chips when dealing with Idaho. The big brains at Idaho will soon see that the Big Sky is where they belong and shoul've never left.

University of North Dakota or University of North Dakota Fighting Norse

If not "Fighting Sioux" then just University of North Dakota. Of all the nicknames around the "Fighting Norse" is the only nickname I like.

Hansel, I don't know about "two of the worst" team joinging the BSC, remember that UND already has a win against Sac State. Also, having post-season tournaments on campus of the regular season champion is better than playing in Sioux Falls in front of a three-quarters empty arena.

Goon, the colors will always be green, black, white, and pink....those will never change. Just take everything that had Sioux on it and replace it with Norse.

My vote is for Fighting Norse. Instead of a side profile of a Sioux warrior use the side profile of a Viking warrior. Sioux and Norse are both one syllable long. Scott Hennen, Jr can still bark out his "here comes your "FIGHTING NORSSSSSSSSE!" Most of all the other choices suck and too pc. In two year I hope if I have to change my screen names from Siouxfan97, I hope I have to change it to Norsefan97 instead of Sodbuster97, Roughnecks97, Pilots97, Green Sox97, or all the other dumb ass names out there. my two cents

Goon, your blog post is what started me on the Norse name and theme. Warriors is too generic. Go from Fighting Sioux to Fighting Norse. Go from a side shot of a Sioux warrior to a side shot of a Viking warrior. 99% of all these "ideas" on here suck. Use your oline powers Goon for the Fighting Norse (and keep up the blogging on Goons world)... Siouxfan97 soon to be Norsefan 97?

Does anyone really know what Idaho is planning? You would think they would want to be proactive but they seem to just be sitting there thinking how great they are and that a MWC invite is gonna come their way.

I don't think its any suprise that BSC wants NDSU, Idaho, and SJSU....

Would have loved to see a Summit League team go down tonight!!! few things....every minute and every shot that Schuler puts up should be replaced by Haugen....Haugen is the best pure shooter on the team and he can knock down some shots....How Schuler jumped ahead of him in the lineup this year is beyond me. and I can't believe i'm saying this.... Wilmer needs more minutes!!!!! big improvement from the last few years for coach jones and of the ten students left in town only three went to the game.........

Funny how Idaho "fans" think they are the so much better than all the other schools west of the Mississippi!!! You would think that Notre Dame football and Idaho football are one in the same! Some "fans" over there say they would rather drop football entirely and focus on their other sports than to "drop down" to the Big Sky Conference and play in beautiful settings like in Ogen, Missoula, Bozeman, or Greeley? Fans of Idaho and San Jose State better realize that the Big Sky Conference is the best and probably only option left when the WAC dies a slow death in the next few years.....

Is there a reason why Seth Nichols isn't in there yet?

"Watched" this on the internet while at work and I can't wait to see how bad our qb's really were later tonight!! Only problem I have with Mussman was punting at the end of the game like that....are you "playing to win the game" or trying to not lose too badly? Come on go for it....ridiculous!!! Totally ridiculous. Fire Mussman? No. But keep making gutless calls like that and have fun being the new ball at Iowa State.

If Taylor has any brains in that thick head of his he calls Fullerton and asks "what will it take?" Taylor better act quick because with the WAC death a few years or days away the Big Sky with a committed Montana is gonna be the place to be for football in the west. NDSU, Idaho, Utah State, and San Jose State better get Fullerton on speed dial. Congrats on Montana choosing FCS instead of trying to be the next Idaho where they think they are better than everyone else for winning the eharmony.com bowl or whatever bowl they won. I agree that Faison and Kelly would help NDSU get into the BSC because we have something that NDSU didn't seem to have with Chapman as president: class. go soo

Great news about Montana!!! Time for NDSU to find out their buyout of the crappy MVFC/Summit and start negotiatng with the Big Sky Conference ( I hate NDSU with a passion and could care less about SoDak schools but a travel partner in the new expaned BSC would be nice). The WAC as we know it is dead in three or four years (or less at this rate with TCU).

they throw it to the three and five? COME ON
