You don't know what was said and/or done. Neither do I. Let's wait until the whole story comes out.

If Chase did and/or said something inappropriate to his team, then he should get suspended for it. Not saying the clandestine video is appropriate, but this is how some of these things get exposed to the world.

A crazed Bison fan whom I have debated on many different forums over the years. Definitely one of my toughest opponents.

There is no proof that this is JBB. Unless there is, I don't think you can justify banning him. Posting stupid crap is not necessarily against forum guidelines.

Please stop talking about Division I Men's Hockey as a big money hole. It is not a net money loser. Period. I hate the UND-REA lease agreement as much as the next guy, but your other points are so off the mark I won't even try to refute them.

Was at the West Fargo @ GF Central game Tuesday night at Purpur. Final was 8-0 GFC, shots were 49-8 in favor of GFC. Unreal talent and depth at Central this year. Big kids who can skate and make plays happen.

So essentially, accept being a mid-major as the new reality and get used to it. Sorry, I will not do that.

You and a lot of other people.

Oh okay. Thanks for adding that clarification.

So that makes how many Subways in Grand Forks.......12, 13 maybe? #howmanyistoomany

Okay, tell me where I am wrong. I honestly don't follow NDSU athletics like UND athletics, so please educate me.

Wall to wall juggernaut? Their MBB and WBB programs are in the toilet right now. Their other non-FB programs aren't much better. If you really think people like myself are going to accept UND becoming a low-level Division I school forever, you are kidding yourself. UND alumni will not tolerate the current level of mediocrity in the athletic department forever. I think Bill Chaves will clean this mess up and get us back to winning.

Thanks for the laugh, I needed it.

But remember...…. It's "all about the relationships" and "all about teaching life lessons". So it doesn't matter how much we lose or how bad we look doing it. (extreme sarcasm)

This is a false choice. This isn't an either/or question: 1 NCAA title and years of mediocrity vs. O NCAA titles and years of 25+ wins. The idea is to have a consistent winner and also win NCAA titles when all the pieces are in place to do so, which isn't the case every year. That shouldn't be a problem at UND. The fact that it is should bother people. But it doesn't seem to right now. There is a high school mentality in this athletic department right now (as long as the kids work hard, play hard and get good grades, nothing else matters). And as long as we have that, we won't win anything in any sport anytime soon.

Better them than Denver or Duluth.

That was a freak snowstorm that wasn't supposed to be as bad as it was. Lot of people were stranded on I-29.

And this happened. Surprised this hasn't been shared yet: Standout Minnetonka hockey player suffers frostbite during Hockey Day Minnesota game http://www.fox9.com/news/standout-minnetonka-hockey-player-suffers-frostbite-during-hockey-day-minnesota-game Silly doctor! It builds "character"! Heck, if the kid had gotten gangrene, he would have built even more character! THIS is what our youth need! (sarcasm) #ignoranceisthenewcommonsense

Since we got rid of the Fighting Sioux name and logo, I think the odds of Jackson donating to help the basketball programs have gone up.....if we have the nerve to ask. Jackson played here and his experiences at UND helped him get to where he is today, so I would think we could convince him to give to MBB and WBB.

Nice putting words in my mouth. I did not say "nothing else matters to the Engelstad Family." I only meant as it pertains to UND athletics. And it is true. Do you see KEM writing checks for the MBB, WBB or FB programs? Or any other programs not named Men's Hockey? I don't. They give to charities, good for them (and for the recipients of their goodwill). But that has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Nice try, please play again.

The Engelstad family cares only about hockey. Nothing else matters. Their words and actions reflect this. Time to court other potential donors; it is unhealthy to rely on one benefactor.

Yeah, I forgot about that.

Maybe Phil Jackson can write us a big, fat check to build a new basketball complex on the current Hyslop Sports Center site?

So we should give Jones an extension? Doh-Kay. #mediocrityU
