    So he sits out one year and then plays in 2017-18? I wonder what he'll bring to the Bulldogs?
  2. fightingsioux4life
    This is a very good question and it would be cool if we did that.
  3. fightingsioux4life
    It should be simple. But for some people, it is not. Why else do you think some people run around wearing white hoods while they burn crosses in front of people's homes?

    You can listen to mom and dad all you want, but there is no substitute for real-life experience. And that is one of the things that college provides.

    Good points, thanks.

    It's the offseason, what else are we supposed to talk about? Talking about guys leaving school early fills only so much time and space on this forum. Once August rolls around, people will turn their attention to UND FB and Year 3 of Bubba's reclamation project. And then once October comes, it will be back to talking about hanging #9.

    UND (along with NDSU) is one of the most diverse places in the state. These two campuses, along with the reservations, are a few of the places where the population isn't 98% pale white. I don't think these budget reductions will change that.

    And that was his only losing season. One losing season out of 10 is pretty good. And he brought home a boatload of hardware along with that. 5 WCHA regular season titles. 2 WCHA playoff titles. And 2 NCAA titles. And most of those were won without the benefit of a $100 hockey palace and all the bells and whistles that went with it. Taking a shot at one of the most decorated coaches in program history was totally unnecessary, IMO.

    I never said I wanted him replaced, I just wanted one of his teams to get over the hump and hang another green banner. But even that is too negative for some people on this forum.

    That is a good problem to have! I think Berry's NCAA title in his first season will keep the wolves at bay for some time. I don't think Lucia would have survived some of those bad seasons in the late 2000's if he hadn't brought home national titles in 2002 and 2003. I don't expect any huge drop-offs for this program in the coming years.

    If that happens, then we make a coaching change (example: replacing Gino with Blais in 1994). But I don't see that happening and I don't get the implications from some people that this somehow will happen now that Hakstol is gone and Berry is in charge. I see no evidence of that happening. What is happening in Duluth does not have to happen here. And I don't think it will.

    I do not "hate" anyone, hate is much too strong of a word to use when talking about this particular issue. And no, I won't be calling for Berry's head if we have a down year; that can happen to any program at any time. But I don't really think that is going to happen with Berry in charge. If we ever do have a Mussman-style disaster at the head coaching position, then I'll be calling for a change. But again, I don't see that happening.

    Kudos to you for paying homage to the greatest comic strip of all time, "Calvin and Hobbes"!!!

    Okay, I just have to respond to this. You are basically saying that Boston College's 3 NCAA titles in 5 years (2008, 2010, 2012) are somehow offset by the Eagles not making the NCAA tournament in 2009. That is perhaps the most twisted piece of logic I have ever read on this site. Please tell me that isn't what you meant. The cold, hard truth is, from 2005-2015, Boston College had more high-level success than North Dakota. Having said that, the Eagles haven't won a natty since 2012 and UND just broke a 16 year title drought, so that narrative may be changing (finally).

    Even using it one time could be construed as a violation of copyright law.
  16. fightingsioux4life
    Trolling? I wasn't "trolling", I seriously did not understand the rationale for approving one request and denying another. I will leave the legal judgements to UND's legal staff.
  17. fightingsioux4life
    I didn't think Through These Doors was being sold to the public.
  18. fightingsioux4life
    Studsrud reminds me a little of Kelby Klosterman, one of the best pure athletes we have ever had at QB.
  19. fightingsioux4life
    Doesn't make sense to me. What is the difference?
  20. fightingsioux4life
    But UND could replay the title game at the victory gathering last Monday?
  21. fightingsioux4life
    You missed the at the end of the message. I was being a smart-a$$.
  22. fightingsioux4life
    That must really burn up the CHL zealots! A Canadian kid finding a path to success through *gasp* U.S. College Hockey!?!? I imagine TSN is getting some flak for publishing the story at all. The butt-hurt is strong with them, isn't it?
  23. fightingsioux4life
    I'll believe it when the Heraldo or WDAZ reports it.
  24. fightingsioux4life
    He can't use the "one and done" excuse this time, either.
  25. fightingsioux4life
    Somehow, I don't think that will be a problem this time. The Capitals are dialed in this year.
