Wow. Looks like a really big overpriced clock to me!!

The one thing I will always remember about the 1997 team was the Regional Championship game in Fargo against the Bison. Remember that for most of the decade, NDSU women's basketball was king. They had played in the last 6 National Championship games, winning 5 of them. Going into that game UND had everything stacked against them. NDSU was the 4 time defending National Champions, had beaten UND the last 5 meetings including the previous years Regional Final, and were currently undefeated (28-0) going into that game against UND. And UND went into Fargo against all those odds and beat them. And that changed everything. The Sioux had finally gotten over the hump and taken down the giant. Of course we all know what happened after that, 3 straight National Championships as well as another title game appearance. One could argue the balance of power shifted over to UND and has been that way ever since. One of the biggest moments in UND athletics history.

It's almost like less people are showing up because the team is not as good as it has been traditionally in the past!! I wonder what will happen if we are ranked in the top 5 nationally midway through the season!!

I think I recognize that 17 year old kid sitting right behind the bench celebrating!! Definitely one of my favorite moments as a UND fan!

Well, looking at how both teams of done the past couple seasons, both fan bases could benefit from drowning their sorrows in a few cold ones.

However he has run an offence before as a QB. Also without looking at every OC in college and in the NFL, I would guess that there are many OC's that were previously QB coaches. QB to QB coach to Offensive Coordinator is a natural transition and many that have gone that route have succeeded.

Well....the Mooch just got slightly better!! https://www.kare11.com/article/sports/u-of-m-alcohol-sales-approved-at-select-sports-venues/89-9d43d5cd-db82-4558-9f69-bb9fcd668431 U of M alcohol sales approved at select sports venues Starting with the upcoming 2019-20 athletic seasons fans will be able to purchase beer and wine from all seating areas at both 3M Arena at Mariucci for hockey games and Williams Arena for basketball games.

First year OC. Needs at least a year to get his feet wet!

Well, If Massey Ratings mean anything to you, here is how they predicted UND's chances of winning each game this season. UND is favored in only 3 games (well actually 4 because they didn't predict the Drake game but UND is likely predicted to win that one. That being said, of the other 7 games where their changes of winning is less that 50%, UND is within 7 points or less in 4 or those games for the score predictor. So per the Massey predictor, we are favored or within 1 score of 8 opponents this year. Massey is yet another ranking, so take it with a grain of salt. But 8 wins is certainly not out of the question. (But neither is 4 I guess too).

Until next year, and the year after that, and the year after that!! This is the world we live in now.

7 wins this year and every year after that gets us in the playoffs in most scenarios given our SOS this year and in the MVFC moving forward. That should be the bare minimum expectations for UND every year. Anything less than making the playoffs for this program should be considered an disappointment.

If success from last year carries over to this year, it's going to be a gauntlet. UND plays 5 playoff teams from last year. (NDSU, EWU, UC Davis, Montana St., and Weber St.) Of those 5 teams, 4 were seeded teams. We play 3 of those 2018 seeded teams on the road. Oh and those 3 road games (NDSU, EWU and Weber) those teams were also the top 3 seeded teams in last years playoffs not to mention the two teams that played in the National Championship game. So yeah , I'd say UND has a pretty tough schedule.

Whoever scores the first goal in game 7 wins the series. Blues just can't seem to come back when they get behind. It's amazing how many goals the Bruins are scoring in their wins. Once they get rolling, they are near impossible to stop. A 2 goal lead may be almost insurmountable for St Louis. Especially in Boston.

He was so under utilized last year it was ridiculous. Should have been the second back behind Brady with McKinney right behind him. Santiago should have been moved back to a slot receiver. I am fairly confident Danny can make better decisions on where to use guys than Rudy did.

Rule changes for 2019-2020 Season https://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/article/2019-06-05/mens-college-basketball-3-point-line-extended-international 3-point line moving back to the international distance of 22' 1/34" Shot clock reset at 20 seconds (instead of 30) after a field-goal attempt hits the rim and the offensive team rebounds the ball in the front court. Coaches allowed to live-ball timeouts in the final two minutes of games. (previously weren't allowed to).

All of us fans of UND are upset with the process of selecting the new nickname and the selection of the logo. Not just the #SiouxForever crowd. Compaining about the process was justified and a shared view of all of us. The name is here to stay. the current logo is what it is. Will it be the logo 50 years from now? Likely not. So for all that like the current Fighting Hawks logo or are at least ok with it, great. For those that aren't a big fan or those that absolutely hate it, be patient. As we have seen, Teams, Universities, etc change or adopt secondary logos all the time.

You really think that? I think these are all worse than our current logo. The Brien one being the absolute worse.

Two UND basketball players could be transferring out https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/basketball/1358259-Two-UND-basketball-players-could-be-transferring-out

He gets it. "I think this story sums up college hockey in its truest sense: community. Looking back I realize college hockey isn’t really about going to class, tests, games, teachers, wins or losses at all. It’s about people. Relationships built with people that make a campus, dorm or classroom, not only a place to learn, but a home"

Can Chaves hire the next UND President as well?!!

Did you see his childish tweet about he has had no access to Sather since he was announced the head coach yet he had time to make videos with UND Insider? Prettyy pathetic.

Here is the 2019-2020 roster listed on NSU's website. Will be interesting if anyone comes with Sather. # NAME POS. HT. WT. YR. HOMETOWN HIGH SCHOOL PREVIOUS SCHOOL 2 Mason Stark G 6-2 160 So.

Which brings up the questing...Will UND play for any rivalry trophies in the MVFC with NDSU, USD, or SDSU?!

So will the Sitting Bull trophy be up for grabs in 2020? UND360 seems to think so. Obviously it wasn't [played for in 2016 and 2017, but will they resurrect the trophy when they are back in the same conference? In this day and age, would UND even consider it?
