SIOUXFAN97

any word on tv for the fresno game?

I dare you to find a FCS team that plays on a football field that is more boring that piece of junk rug at the Al? Two giant Alerus logos and two Sioux words in the end zones? I know they replacing the field next year but what are the odds the Alerus center logos will be bigger and more in your face? They should have the interlocking N&D at midfield, with the Big Sky logo at the 25 and North in one end zone and Dakota in the other. The sound system stinks. Me and my three friends that went to the Drake game couldn't hear a word anyone was saying about anything the whole game. The banners that hang from the roof also partially block the video boards too. Also the rise over run or pitch of the seats sucks. I'm only how many rows up when i sit in the last row behind the students yet I feel i'm miles from the action. Compare that to REA where they have the highest pitch possible (ADA sets this i think?) for their seats and sit in the last row of REA and you feel your right on top of the action. In my mind the seating pitch is one the biggest failures in the Alerus that makes that it feel so sterile.

The Alerus is what it is. A concrete box along the highway that made a handful of local people a lot of money (kind of like the Choice Wellness Center will). Sterile and boring (kind of like the Drake game!!). Hopefully Faision is working behind the scenes to secure a long term home for Sioux football for their entry into to the BSC and beyond (WAC/MWC???). Why is it that UND hasn't paid for a football stadium maybe since the 1920's yet it still doesn't have a plan or money set aside for a on-campus football stadium that would cost millions of dollars? I know its nice to have people like Ralph to cut checks for 125 milion dollars but when are we gonna lead the way and get it done.

please mussman... less sutton more miller/garmen less anderson more ivery/townsend and please get the ball to a tight end, any tight end

next poll question should be if the sioux lose on thursday what will the attendance be for the next home game: over/under 5000?

please let it be bradley or comes!!!!!!

HOPE MR CARLSON HAS SOME MAFIA CONNECTIONS AND PULLS OUT FILES ON EACH OF THOSE NC$$ CROOKS AND FLASHES IT TO THEM AND THEN MAKES THEM AN OFFER THEY CAN'T REFUSE!!!

I first me Cordero last year where I work and he was a really really nice young guy..likes to talk football. I had a feeling about MH having a shot at qb...being that they say he is one of the best if not the best athlete on the team.

I still think the only way this meeting does anything is if they bring people that actually live on the Spirit Lake Res. like Eunice D. who could look across that table and speak from the heart and make little president berkeley squirm in his mini-chair. I also think that the delegation might to need to ask if dropping the logo from athletic unis but still sell merchandise but keeping the name would be ok. to be a fly on the wall in that meeting in indy!!!!

im starting to actually believe douple now more and more considering what happened when mr. berkeley came back from the bsc meetings and all of sudden......................

I emailed that emmert guy and surprise surprise no response yet...i just asked him if he regarded UND as the best university in the country for American Indians and if so why do suppose that is? Pretty simple question and answer but he seems stooped? I wish Tom Clifford was still around to put Mr. Berkeley in his place. Does anyone have a screen shot of the Facebook chat log between Grant Shaft's son and pro-nickname people that was reported to have happened a few months back...jsut wondering go sioux

That would be awesome if U of San Diego joined the BSC...anyone checked out their boards to see what anyone is saying....Any new news on Idaho, SJSU, and USU? I did check out Egriz.com and yes that is some violent stuff over there.... I'm sure Fullerton is waiting by the phone to see which three schools (not you south dakota) wanna to be part of the future of the BSC conference (two eight team divisions and then hopefully cal-davis and cal-poly would be REQUIRED to join 100% into the BSC). Hopefully Faison can get out toof the Mines game and bring in some school from FCS to come here in place...if not its only one more year of crap and then its on...

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
