  1. Mollberg completed 10 of 13 for 288 yds and 4 td's tonight against Park Rapids. TD passes of 56,57,64 and 75 yds. Lakers won 36-7 on a windy night in Park Rapids.

    If he continues to play like that, he will probably get an offer from Iowa

  2. Does anyone really think the school administration needs a thread to alert them they have a coaching problem - if and when there is a coaching problem?

    Why not, we think we can influence the nickname debacle... :whistling:

  3. ... No one put men in charge of the earth. Evolution created sexual reproduction and two distinct sexes in species that reproduce in that way. Let's stick to facts. ...

    Trying (but probably failing) not to get too deep into this discussion with you: during Biblical times, men were, indeed, the head of the family and held responsible for any and everything done by members of their families. If Grimaldi is speaking in this context, his references are correct. As recently as the generation that fought in WWII, men were heads of the family and the general consensus was that men were in charge, whether you believe that today or not. Gender equity is a relatively recent phenomenon. As for evolution creating sexual reproduction, I respectfully disagree with you and stand on the side of the fence that God gave us sexual reproduction, not evolution.

    As for the overall message in his comments, good for him! What is wrong with a young man today having moral fortitude and being willing to stand up and say so? The world can definitely use more people like this gentleman and if there were, maybe we would not be ashamed to admit who is in charge. I think his message is more (to both women and men): take responsibility for your actions and stop blaming everyone else for your choices. Why would a position such as this be wrong?

  4. Honest question to Sioux fans, because I have said it and other Bison fans have said it, but I haven't really heard anyone who is a Sioux fan agree. Do you think UND can ever get back to being an elite team with the current head coach?

    What would your honest answer have been between the end of the 2009 season and the beginning of the 2010 season if the question was posed to you about Coach Bohl? ... 3-8 season; DUI charge; team discipline (Best Buy) and all...

    That said... so far, not so impressed with Coach Mussman and would like to see UND go after UMD's Coach Nielson.

  5. A letter to the editor in Tuesday's Bismarck Tribune about the scope of media coverage

    Also recently, members of the Cannonball district passed a resolution supporting the use of the name and logo by UND. Nothing was uttered by the Tribune.

    Just last night (Sept. 21), that same district attempted to introduce a motion before the tribal council (as is its right) on the Fighting Sioux name and logo, but Jesse Taken Alive intervened before a second could be heard.

    This is another example of the misuse of power by those council members in this matter, and more proof that they are trampling on the rights of their people. I doubt this will be dug into, but I hope I am wrong.

    The letter was about the coverage of the student lawsuit but lack of coverage of the motion to dismiss by AG Stenehjem.

  6. Screw Notre Dame and their Decision. When did they become the Lebron James of college hockey? :) They better be careful what they wish for because if they do pick Hockey East and their fancy new TV deal, we can all watch how they fare against a steady diet of BC, BU, Maine, UNH, etc.

    And DU, CC, Miami, Duluth, Omaha, not to mention North Dakota would be an easier schedule? :blink: Oh, yeah, there is St Cloud now...

  7. Bohl is worried about UND being ranked #24 in the country? Something tells me he is a bit more concerned with the Valley for the next 3-4 months until off-season recruiting starts up.

    Maybe Mollberg's commit to UND has him worried?? :silly:

  8. location, location, location.

    Bemidji has shown a greater committment to their hockey program, Bowling Green would improve the 'national' footprint, Bowling Green is D-I and a fellow MAC school for Miami & Western Michigan

    SCSU has Gino pullling strings, SCSU is close enough to the Twin Cities to have a lot of alumni in the MSP tv market, SCSU gets blind-squirrel lucky

  9. According to some St Cloud posters on USCHO, SCSU's Potter will know this coming week whether SCSU is in the NCHC.

    NCHC either adds Notre Dame and stays at seven (a Notre Dame demand)

    or adds WMU and SCSU. Bowling Green gets left out.

    FAIL. :(

    Certainly hope that BG is added over SCSU. Make it a National Conference as the name says, not WCHA-II.

  10. There are only a half a dozen schools on the east coast that use the name Pride. No schools west of the Appalachians or larger than Hoefstra University. Pride could have several meanings and a lion logo.

    I can hear echos of cheers of "Sioux Pride" or "Dakota Pride". Uniforms could have only the name "Dakota" on them... Reactions?

  11. ... UND was huge compared to NDSU before the 60's. 50,000+ had graduated from UND by 1960 only 9,000 had graduated from NDSU. ...

    Was this because the students at NDSU in those days were mostly headed back to the farm and left NDAC when they had garnered the education they desired, whether they had enough credits to graduate or not? I have friends who went to NDSU to take the classes they needed to run their farms better, but didn't feel it was necessary to get the sheepskin to run a good agricultural operation. This is not intended as smack. Merely an observation of the focus of the students in the 60s and earlier. I think the enrollments were similar, and yes, UND did indeed have more students, just not by that large of a margin.
