and yes if und takes roughriders they should ask the city to rename the school the "roosevelts or the teddy's"...wouldn't cost too much to change and both high schools in town are talk about the old days of the redskins/roughriders...

what does cavalry have to do with north dakota? and two word combos of a color/region and a idea/thing/noun are odd and a dime a dozen--- green hawks green wave green force mean green red wolves red storm red hogs red dragons red foxes blue hose blue hawks blue rebels blue raiders blue streaks tundra hawks prairie storm prairie wolves purple raiders purple eagles purple knights arctic foxes valley dragons golden flashes golden lions golden bobcats thunder wolves prairie stars..... game show time...match up more than three of the above names with their respective schools...i follow sports as much as anyone on here and i would have a hard time doing that.. sooners gamecocks tar heels gators buffalos jayhawks longhorns razorbacks volunteers hoosiers hawkeyes game show time..match up more than three of the above names with their respective schools now roughriders/nokotas would be easily recognizable as unique to und...especially is given time and a cool/marketable logo...

what boggles me is that everyone i talk to about this says they like roughriders and nokotas the best (same with me) but i have not found one person that says "i like big green, green hawks, green pride, green sundogs, pride, flames, force, or any other stupid ass nicknames being thrown about? where are these people...oh yeah...fargo...a place i don't go to that often. nokotas-no one else has it...original and has a meaning roughriders-state nickname...run with it

assuming that und's new nickname is somewhere on this list then?

yes on all the previous but just being a gf residence doesn't mean you should get a vote imo

de rouen was at planet fitness tonight working out...i'm assuming he is staying?

and he's only 29 years old....

so the chair of the ncaa hockey committee says congrats to "boston...oops i mean providence... terriers"??? gimme a break....waht a joke

that third period was awesome college hockey...congrats providence....

i guess i just don't get why people would be so scared about letting hak go and trying someone else...you think if eades got the job the bottom would just fall out the bottom with ten straight losing seasons? i admire the ad at umd letting their womens coach go...try someone else and see what happens (and save about 200k a year too)

i guess you are missing the point being that maybe hak plays it to close to the vest and doesn't allow his players to use their god given talents...maybe schmaltz has been yelled at one too many times in practice to stay here, don't go there, do your job and don't mess up.....watch the video...there is fifteen seconds or ten seconds left in the game/season and he looked like he was posing for a picture back there...

that could be the problem right there...hak would rather not give up a goal than to score a goal sometimes...just look at the last fifteen seconds of the game from yesterday...it might be so ingrained into the players heads that they don't use instinct and react...i think it was schmaltz that just sat on the blue line staring at the scrum right in front of him on the boards...just frickin sat there...he should have been going forward with everything he had but he just stayed there??? why?

whatever sandelin, parker, york, allain, bennett, lucia, the gwoz, eaves, or comley did in the last few years did...what they did...don't know what they did but it worked.

right off the checklist that all hak lovers have... hot goalie bad bounces bad ice bad luck what if jt miller had_____ injuries refs and the other team played their best game of the year. put em on dartboard...throw a dart and you have the reason why hak hasn't won a championship at any level in nearly 30 years!!!!!!!!

whatever the adjustment that sandelin made two days later...not sure what it was but it got him a banner to hang in amsoil arena?

once again i haven't brought up dean or gino in my posts..they are gone and aren't coming back...and secondly ralph built his building to win National Titles not wcha, penrose, or final five titles and participation awards that are so popular now. No f'ing way after the michigan game a couple years ago would he have said good job hak get em next year...no way. And maybe you are too close to program to where you can't see that something is wrong with the hockey program and something needs to change.

way way too many selfies from bernstine on his instagram....way too many

i haven't mentioned gino or dean in any of my posts....they both won lots of games and national championships with far far less than what was handed to hak and i respect them for that...here is a question for ya...If ralph was alive today do you think that hak would be coach after these last 11 years??

any of the head coaches at other schools that have won a national champion in the last ten years with 1/50 of the resources hak has been give over the years...any of them!

just like if you ask random ndac football fans which football conference they are in you will responses that range from NCC, Horizon, Summit, Gateway, and Big 12 because they are just there regardless....ask a lot of und hockey fans before a game and ask what rank in the nchc or national poll they are and you will get a lot of blank looks...REA will sell out pretty much every night for the rest of time no matter what product is put our there...regardless of record.

not saying that muss got a raw deal but if you talk to people that know intercollegiate sports they know that it takes $$$$$$$ to gets thing done...there is a spending war amonst schools for all sports...muss had guys that last couple of years that should have been graduate assistants as assistant head coaches and o and d coordinators...what we were expecting the results to be...on the ohter hand hak doesn't have that problem...he has every resource at his disposal yet he can't get some more blue chippers and maybe figure out that dump and chase and cycling just have a weak ass shot hit a "hot goalie" in the chest with no rebounds is not gonna get it done and the natinal tourney... but hey at least we are out shooting these teams we are losing to in the semi's??

honest question...let's say hak keeps winning 70-75 % of his games but doesn't win a national title...how long would you be comfortable before making a change....5 years...ten years...20?

yes
