A good walk-up crowd will snatch those up.

Now I can go back to using my old hotel for this tournament.

Based on that prediction, you would think Utah was Alabama or LSU.

Yeah, they have been doing that since the Blais Dynasty.

Yeah, there are a lot of factors involved. Also, would he want to leave Grand Forks and live in a much different place? I like the uncrowded nature of Grand Forks.

I think he was talking about Schlossman. If the Strib was to offer him double what he makes for the Heraldo, I wouldn't blame him for taking it.

What makes you think that?

Yeah, we are just falling apart at the seams up here. NCAA title in hockey in 2016, Big Sky FB champions in 2016, Big Sky MBB regular-season and playoff titles in 2017, Big Sky Volleyball regular-season and playoff titles in 2017, Big Sky WBB regular-season title in 2017. And VB is kicking butt already this year against big name schools. Yup, we have our work cut out for us to get out of this hole! Meanwhile, I am sure NDSU is secretly working on their application to join FBS and the Big 12 and will unveil it in the next couple of years. Btw, where are all those stupid "Bubba Gump" comments you guys were spewing on here a couple of years ago? I don't see them anymore. Gee, I wonder why that is? Quit trolling our board unless you have something useful to contribute. Go back to Bisonville, please.

There are certain athletes who are a perfect fit in Cal-Poly's system that wouldn't fit in with anyone else. You just need to know where to find them. If they could incorporate more of a passing attack to catch teams cheating to stop the run, they would be tough to stop.

You mean like this?

It was a young team that didn't know how to close out a big game. That experience will help them in the long run.

Cripes, this is no time for injuries.

I agree with you 1000%. Bubba has accomplished nothing short of a miracle already.

Not "has built"....."is building". The program hasn't accomplished all its goals yet.

Brad DeFauw, Peter Armbrust, Bryan Lundbohm and Zach Parise (who I believe committed in 2001) come to mind. The Gophers did not have a good record against us during that time period either. They took quite a few butt-kickings from us in that "rusting hulk" of an arena from 1996-2001.

We won 5 NCAA titles in that "rusting hulk", the last one in 2000. Heck, we won two in the "The Barn" (a WPA project from the 1930's). We have won exactly ONE in the new REA. I remember in the years before the new REA, Gopher fans yammering on and on about how great Mariucci Arena was and how it was better than a bunch of NHL arenas and what a dump we were playing in. Yet, we won most of the recruiting battles against them from 1996 to 2001. You make way too many assumptions, Mr. SiouxVolley.

That is good to hear. I hate to see people struggle with alcohol and/or drugs. Good luck Coach Hardee.

Neither have I.

What are the ratings for Midco non-live sporting event programming? Do any of their non-live programs get good ratings?

Does KVLY's contract explicitly prohibit any other media company from having an NDSU coaches show? That is a good question to ask someone who knows. And I will jump all over Midco if needed. We signed a contract with them to give our programs coverage, so if they are canceling one of our coaches shows, I would like to hear the rationale. Nobody forced them to sign a contract that requires them to pay UND for coverage.

And these are our "partners" in television? With "partners" like this, who needs opponents. Will they replace this with a Bison football show?

You can never have enough running backs (injuries happen). Also, we can always move an unused RB to another position.

Preseason polls mean nothing anyway.

We have used black in our athlete uniforms for years now. Makes sense to use it for the band too.

That is a good example of what I was talking about, I am sure it is not the only example.
