GO HAWKS!!!!!

amen

These announcers could at least sound like they're interested in announcing this game...they're about to fall asleep I think

I just can't get over how bad Shanks is down low with the ball - both trying to score and trying to rebound.

very impressive first half for UND This UND team sure as hell better not let Idaho State back into this thing pedal to the floor on the defensive end in the second half...send the message Jones...

40 - 10 HAWKS never saw this coming... wow

Great ball movement by UND on that Hooker 3 point shot. Jones needs to preach defense from now on in this game. With how poor Idaho State is shooting, they've dug themselves into a deep hole; Jones can't let his team let them back into it.

Shanks is playing with his typical lousy style of play. Too many turnovers. Thankfully, UND is hitting shots and Idaho State is turning it over too. UND needs to be more disciplined and secure the damn ball.

Good energy to start. These announcers on Watch Big Sky are quite interesting.... I do like the color analyst though; he's entertaining.

Good ball game. Weber State did all it could to win that one. If UND beats Idaho State, they better not lay an egg against Weber State; WSU is beatable, especially on a neutral floor.

No doubt. In Jones' two years coaching in the NCC (2006-2008), he went 26–32. In Jones' four years coaching in the Great West (2008-2012), he went 60–64. Nagy won as a DII coach but struggled during the transition; however, Jones relatively struggled with both a DII schedule and transitioning DI schedule.

So Jones coaches for the worst basketball school, gets paid the lowest of all DI coaches, and has the worst talent in the Big Sky Conference.... Anything else we should know about? Goodness, the guy might be the next thing to Coach K with all the fictional odds you keep stacking against him.

UND just beat a 5-24 SUU team...you call that a big win? C'mon man. UND played poor. UND was supposed to beat SUU (although you can't expect anything with Jones coaching); UND was the 5th seed and SUU was a lowly 12 seed. if UND wants to get a "big win", they can now start winning in the quarterfinals vs teams that have actually won double-digit games. But I suppose you would even think a win against Mayville is special since it adds to Jones' pathetic W-L record...

Look at the big picture, people. If these kids are not capable of correcting their behaviors after watching their fellow teammates get punished, then they are too selfish to be apart of the ultimate team sport. It's simple; if they screw up again after the message sent, they're off the team. You can't win with selfish players...most of the time.

Pathetic. Need to do way better, but I suppose we should just be happy that UND's men's basketball team won 10 games this season...

What part of that statement is wrong? That Jones deserves more money? That is not a fact, but rather an opinion. The facts are that Jones WAS hired as a DII coach, and HAS NOT been able to win a Big Sky Conference tournament championship. He has a 136–161 overall record as UND's coach. That sub-par record is not deserving of anything "worthwhile". I'm just going to say it: you are unable to comprehend facts. Or you are just playing devil's advocate and want to argue against common sense.

A couple 18 year old kids got caught with marijuana. I am not supporting that behavior, but c'mom; they deserve the chance to at least correct their behaviors. Have you noticed that nice contingent of student-athletes at the UND basketball games? Those are mostly football players, so I'd say they have some positive character. Not to mention Bubba has been head coach of UND football for only two years and so far he has a real nice trend going (5-7 to 7-4, including a 3-game winning streak). What kind of trend has Jones put together over his head coaching career? 10 years of 0.500 basketball.

He has the potential to be a special teams phenom...that could be his calling to make a roster

Wow. I think he made a splash. Should make a camp and get an opportunity at least. Doubtful he'll get drafted since he'll be considered a FB which is the dinosuar position of the NFL...but one never knows...

This list is important for one main reason: it allows UND to transfer over the atmoshphere hype of hockey to football, rather than trying to start something new. UND students and fans are already familiar with the fog horn and Chelsea Dagger celebration, so let's use that to our advantage rather than work around it. Same goes for fireworks on touchdowns/goals and lights off for the intro; all things the Ralph implements quite well and the Alerus should too. It's time to make this a UND thing, not just a hockey thing.

Unfortunate situation and they will need to be punished, likely by sitting out a game or two. With that said, they're both young and deserve a chance to correct their behaviors while still playing UND football. Bubba will take care of this and I have faith this will smooth over.

The perception of NDSU vs. UND is a relevant one, although many UND fans don't want to admit to it. It will take some time, but Bubba has produced a winning program so it will continue to get better. I wholeheartedly agree with your statement on PR/marketing and productions; Bubba needs some help in order to get UND football where he and us want it. You can't have a one man band with college athletics. The Alerus Center gameday productions crew can't be complacent; this is the time to act (music, intro, cues, etc.) due to the team's budding success.

UND is on a 4-game losing streak away from the Betty. If we don't want to talk about how incapable Brian Jones is, should we talk about how this team can't win on the road? The FACT is UND MBB is on a 4-game road losing streak; not something you want to take into a conference tournament, regardless if it's on a neutral floor or not. Reno will still be more foreign than playing in the Betty in front of the home crowd.

Suspend them both for 1 or 2 games. Very unfortunate but necessary. If it happens again, they're done.

Never good. Very disappointing.
