The goal isn't to be "respectable" in the Big Sky Conference. It is to win post-season tournaments and perhaps win a game or two in the NCAA tournament. Anything less than that is not good enough.

Nice personal attack. When you are all hat and no cattle, that is all that you are left with I guess.

I don't think Faison is thinking this. And if he is, that is the next job that needs to be looked at for an upgrade.

I hope it's nothing bad at all. But it looks like it's something more than a case of the flu.

If it's something like mono, then you can scratch her for the rest of the season.

Yeah, I know that. I was speculating that they would get rid of the Heraldo to save money and replace it with the Fargo Forum.

And it is also inevitable that I will not bother watching their newscast anymore. Fargo really thinks it is Minneapolis. What's next, the Grand Forks Heraldo gets shut down and we are force-fed the Fargo Forum?

Beating a MAC team once early in a season is fine. Beating MAC teams over the course of a typical 11 game season is quite different.

No, it's a cold, hard fact. A lot of kids that used to live in the now-defunct Lincoln Park and Riverside Park neighborhoods went to GFC. But, like i said, Central is back to being good year in and year out.

So if they were won before 1967, they don't count? Should we forfeit them? The Flood of 1997 really screwed up the population patterns in Grand Forks and that hurt Central's hockey program big-time. They are now starting to get back to being consistently good.

That still doesn't answer the question of who has more titles.

C'mon man, that was weak! You have to have something better than that in your arsenal!

Let's remember how many overall titles GFC has!* *Hint: It's more than that other high school on the south end of Grand Forks!

This has the potential to be the biggest storm we have had since the Christmas storm in 2009. Do not play around with this, watch the forecasts and make your travel plans accordingly.

The stats don't tell the whole story. This team has a problem with discipline, cohesiveness and as we've seen the past couple of weeks, maintaining composure toward the end of games. Those are the biggest problems with this program and those fall on Jones and his staff.

A successful AD? Yeah. A gigantic, colossal, Grade A Certified toolbox? A definite YES.

Yeah, that makes sense.

Hope they make better decisions on players than they did last year.

No problem, I should have been more clear.

Taylor isn't in charge there, though, he is an assistant AD.

hoops44 doesn't care about winning, he is content with just having a team with a Division I classification.

Yes, you are correct. I think it is safe to say that Jones is auditioning to keep his job this season.

What? You didn't mention Coach K and Duke? You are slipping, son.

So, what do you want? A medal? I am very happy that Bubba has been extended and I give Faison all the credit in the world for getting it done promptly. Now I think it is time to shut this thread down and focus on 2017.

Maybe you would like it if we scheduled all NAIA teams for non-conference? Then we would have a record that looks good, but isn't worth the paper it would be printed on. Just keep pushing for lowering expectations and mediocrity will follow.
