  1. nope. That's Paul "Choke Job" Ralston.
  2. Super Bowl in Vegas, no brainer. No reason to even bid when Vegas puts in their first bid. As far as Final Fours or Frozen Fours, doesn't the NCAA still have their stupid rule about NCAA sanctioned tournaments in the state of Nevada? that would have to be lifted or a Frozen or Final Four to be there.
  3. Zags were already a potential top 5 team before Crandall joined. Will be interesting to see how much they use him with a pretty good team already. If he wants to win a National Championship, this is definitely his best route given the other choices he had.

    2018 Season

    2013 season opener against Valpo. Won 69-10. Was also the only time we beat a D1 opponent by 40+ I believe.

    2018 Season

    Looks like a winning season to me!! (Pretty sweet season poster too).
  6. ESPN3. (For MBB as well in case you were wondering)
  7. Believe it or not, there are Bison fans in Grand Forks. And guess what, They sell UND merchandise in Fargo as well!! Nothing that you really need to get too offended about. But hey, welcome to today's America where everyone is offended by everything!!
  8. Commentary: The NCHC and WCHA voted 18-0 to keep 3-on-3 OTs. So why not keep them? https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/hockey/4467321-commentary-nchc-and-wcha-voted-18-0-keep-3-3-ots-so-why-not-keep-them Some great points by Schloss here on 3x3 overtimes. Best points being these two: "If virtually every league in the world -- the NHL, the AHL, the ECHL, Canadian major juniors, the USHL, European pro, etc. -- has tried 3-on-3 and decided to keep it, if the two college hockey leagues that have tried it voted 18-0 to keep it, isn’t that a signal that it’s been successful?" "We’ll find out later this month whether the proposal to eliminate 3-on-3s and the shootout will go through. But before making a final decision, college hockey should consider that no leagues have gone to 3-on-3s and reverted back because it didn’t work."
  9. Can't be wrong!
  10. Brace yourselves.....undsports.com is now... https://fightinghawks.com/ Looks like they overhauled the entire website as well with a fresh new look. So, what do you think of the website now??
  11. It was a great weekend on the the north side of Chicago!! (Sorry Twins fans )
  12. Not to turn this into a political debate, so please don't take it that direction, but given Kennedy's political affiliation and the way the media in this country (even local) seems to typically lean, it really is no surprise.
  13. This is an online message board. The epitome of a "waste of time."
  14. This was my thinking as well. Agree to basically the same deal through 2020. Settle the storm that was created and make sure your largest donor is relatively satisfied. No one knows what was actually said in these meetings. The revenue sharing was likely brought up and that UND would like to renegotiate that in 2020. If the revenue sharing was discussed and there is a potential to change that in the very near future (2020) that will bake it more beneficial for UND, than it is a win for Kennedy and more importantly, UND athletics in general.
  15. Isn't it the fans of our rivals who are supposed to be the ones we feel sorry for when they make immature, negative comments towards UND? Sad and pathetic those comments come from our own fanbase. Dislike the logo or name? Fine. But to consistently bash them on a regular basis any chance you get is something that is getting tired and old.
  16. Goes straight into the Engelstad money bin!!
  17. For those really looking to get their hockey fix in Vegas the weekend of this game, the Golden Knights play the Lightning in a Friday afternoon game at 3pm on October 26th and the Senators in a Sunday early evening game at 5pm on October 28th. https://www.nhl.com/goldenknights/schedule/2018-10-01/PT
  18. 100% off all revenue from UND sports should be used to fund all UND sports. Obviously it won't be distributed evenly as some programs cost more than others. But can we all agree that UND needs to fund all programs at a level where that they can succeed at the Division 1 level?
  19. So today marks the 2 year anniversary since the new Fighting Hawks logo was released. I think we can all agree it was meet with mixed emotions, to put it lightly. I had the preconceived notion that no matter what the logo came out to be, I was going to support it. I am sure there were others that did the same. Obviously there are those that will go till their last breathe criticizing the logo and will never accept it. Just wondering, not that we are 2 years into it, has your perception of the Fighting Hawks logo changed from what it was when it came out. For me I have gone from acceptance to actually thinking that it is a good logo. Curious if others have felt the same way. Or if you still just hate it the same as he day it was released 2 years ago today.
  20. It's Brad Miller Time again!!!! http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/hockey/4463176-former-und-player-brad-miller-back-air
  21. Is Kennedy just playing us all? Think about it. Because of all this fiasco, we learned how much the REA takes for ticket and ad revenue plus we learned about the unwillingness of the REA and KEM to listen to Kennedy, Chaves, and the other UND coaches to put a Hawks logo at midcourt at the Betty. We also learned that this deal that is supposed to get negotiated yearly is just kicked down the road and not even discussed for years. Sure, nothing changed this year. But now that information is out there. Is Kennedy just holding serve now and not changing a thing to appease UND's biggest donor and just saving up his ammo for the next time he negotiates the deal?!!
  22. This seems to be the only difference: So basically instead of the REA deciding how much they will give to UND at the end of the year, they have agreed to a minimum deposit of $500,000. "At the end of each year, Ralph Engelstad Arena funds a capital reserve fund for extraordinary repairs, maintenance, and building enhancements as well as an operating reserve fund to cover unanticipated operating expenses, and then allocates the balance of its annual net income to UND Athletics. The agreement notes that while there is no cap on the amount that can be funded annually to the account, the entities desire to make an annual minimum deposit of $500,000, which is also consistent with previous usage agreements."
