  1. Summit works the same as the Big Sky. Whoever the men's team is playing at home, the women's team is playing on the road, and vice versa.

  3. It's just really hard for me to believe that Idalski was completely caught off guard by the news. A year ago when they cut sports, Womens hockey was being talked about, but it was not cut. In January when it was announced a decision would be made to cut more programs, how does Idalski think that womens hockey being cut was not a possibility?!! You would have thought that he would maybe had discussed this with the players, or that the players would at least be talking about the possibility. I guess judging by the "complete shock" reactions from players, they were completely oblivious to what was happening in the athletic department regarding budget cuts and cutting programs. And that's on them. And maybe even Idalski for not letting these girls know what is going on.
  4. University of Minnesota Womens Hockey: WCHA Regular Season Conference Champions: 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2015 WCHA Conference Tournament Champions: 2002, 2004, 2005, 2012, 2013, 2014 NCAA Tournament Appearances: 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 NCAA Frozen Four: 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 NCAA National Champions: 2004, 2005, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016 University of North Dakota Womens Hockey WCHA Regular Season Conference Champions: NONE WCHA Conference Tournament Champions: NONE NCAA Tournament Appearances: 2013, 2014 NCAA Frozen Four: NONE NCAA National Champions: NONE
  5. Outrageous!! Better get some signs and hang them from the parking ramp!! CUT MEMBERSHIP FEES NOT SPORTS
  6. NO one wants him fired. Its his lack of reporting both sides of the issue. He retweets people calling Kennedy a moron but doesn't go into the actual reasons why the program had to be cut. He has the right to his opinion and to be mad about the decision. But he also has a duty as a journalist that covers the program to present the facts. He isn't doing that, and that is why people are disappointed with him.
  7. Need to run more fake blast with a backside George reverse!
  8. Schlossman on Barrero was embarrassing. He asked them about why the cuts had to me made and his answer was "I think" then followed by "oil revenue not as much as they thought". Didn't give any numbers like 1.3 Million needed to be cut or that the hockey team was in the red by 2 M. But he did talk about, of course, all the Olympians!! Sad part of. Rafa journalism career right now.
  9. There you go again with your facts and numbers to support them. You really do ruin a good argument!
  10. So cut 1 sport that affects 25 aesthetes, or cut 8 sports that affects far more and virtually makes us ineligible to join any conference because we don't sponsor enough sports. Math is hard for some people, but this is a pretty easy one!!
  11. This ^^^^^^^^ With the cust, UND will be down to 17 sports. If you would have kept womens hockey, you would have had to cut 3-4 sports to make up the amount of money to satisfy the budget cuts which would put you below 16 to remain NCAA compliant. Faison literally had no other option.
  12. Unfortunately that is the world we live in today. What is more upsetting is people like Schlossman who is the main person that covers womens hockey had an opportunity to control the narrative and get the facts out there right away. He did not and instead added fuel to the emotionally charged fire. Not to rag on Brad, but he royally screwed up here.
  13. I'll take 'Numbers that show facts for cutting Womens Hockey at UND that destroy my emotional, uniformed argument based on social media opinions' for 100 Alex!!
  14. All these Olympians, but yet UND womens hockey has 2 playoff appearances and lost both of them in its 15 year history. (10 years under Idalski). Idalski definitely didn't get it done with all the Olympic talent he had over the years.
  15. Hold on now, you can't bring facts into the argument? This is siouxsports.com. We run this business on emotion, opinion, and speculation!!
  16. "The University of North Dakota administration elected to cut the women's hockey program with little to no warning to coaches, players, or other staff members." Seriously?? The University has been saying they may cut programs for almost a year. Even last year there was a chance the program might be cut. When the March deadline was set months ago, those in the womens hockey knew that there was a possibility their program would be cut. Also, all this "UND didn't have the decency to inform the team the program was cut, they had to find out on Twitter" crap that Jocelyn Lamoureux and others are continuing to push is complete BS. If you want to blame someone for that, blame Schlossman and the rest of the people who tweeted it out before the meeting with the team at 2:45 yesterday.
  17. What does producing Olympians have anything to do with the cost to support Womens hockey at UND?
  18. Waiting for the National outrage to start!!
  19. Typical social media outrage. People making comments with little to no knowledge of the facts.
  20. Jocelyn shaming UND for not communicating to the team before anyone else that the program was being cut. Can't blame UND for the story being leaked before they had a chance to meet with them.
  21. But they were told they had a meeting with Faison 45 minutes before he is going to get up and tell everyone what sport(s) would be cut. What did they think was going to be discussed?!!
  22. Well, I'd say that's a pretty good indication!!
  23. I think I might have to start calling the :Sioux Forever" crowd " Nickname Justice Warrior." They remind me of all the idiots out there protesting their causes and ignore truth and the facts and think that their social issue is worth destroying property and marching for. Not saying that is happening here, but the mindset is the same. We lost the Sioux name. Quit your bitchy little cryfest "sioux forever" chants and your constant hatred toward and thing Fighting Hawks and get freakin over yourself!!! The fact that you are still fighting this issue doesn't make you a better person or more of a Fighting Sioux fan. It makes you look like a toddler who didn't get to keep their lolipop after mommy took it away and continues to cry about it 10 years later!! End rant
  24. It's embarrassing. And it is dividing our fanbase. There are people that are trying to accept the Fighting Hawks name and move on past a decade long debate, and there are people who want to continue the debate and refuse to accept reality. It's time. One side is right, the other side is wrong. Doesn't take a genius to figure out which one is which.
