  1. There is always a lot of walk-up, so I wouldn't be writing off the fans just yet.
  2. Good point. But 6-2 is 6-2 and we keep finding ways to win.
  3. Geez, wait until we start losing games to talk negative.
  4. Prevent defense is crap, whether it is high school, NFL or college. It is also crap in hockey, but that's another topic for another place. We better figure out this short-quick-pass weakness or we'll be leaving the Alerus Center on Saturday feeling pretty empty.
  5. He doesn't want to get suspended!
  6. Even in today's hyper-driven media world, some kids fly under the radar and get overlooked. Great job by Bubba and his staff for plucking this one.
  7. On the other hand, if Brewster was still there......
  8. Weren't you going to go away once the old nickname and logo were retired? Or maybe I misunderstood you? Simple Questions (Copyright gfhockey 2016. ALL Rights Reserved!).
  9. I assume you are being sarcastic. In that case, agree 1000%
  10. Another thought.....what if this is a back-door, clandestine attempt to get us back into Division 2?
  11. Like I've said, they are looking at running it like high school. Have as many sports as possible and who cares if more than half of them don't have winning records. That is unacceptable. There had better be something else going on we don't know about or I will have a serious bone to pick with President Kennedy. And if there is a decision coming to not fund FCOA to balance the budget, I will be calling for heads (Kennedy's and Faison's).
  12. Who cares? As long as we take home the BSC title, that is all that really matters.
  13. And that banner cost us big-time in the long-run.
  14. Agree 100% I don't think President Kennedy will accept these recommendations in whole.
  15. We couldn't get FB into the MVFC, so that meant the Big Sky was the better option at the time.
  16. The committee must think that running our athletic department like a high school is a good thing. We cannot adequately fund 20 sports at the Division I level so that they can thrive and be successful and not merely exist. I hope President Kennedy takes a blended approach to this: Increase revenues AND cut sports. If we can get the number down to at least 16, that would make it much easier to raise the level of support for MBB, WBB and FB, all of which have tremendous upside.
  17. If there is one, I won't waste my time with it. We just hung #8. That alone makes a "Fire Berry" thread lunacy.
  18. Well, as long as he is the Athletic Director, he might as well do something big like this.
  19. If I was Faison, I would bid whatever it took to get the game. That alone would drive the FU faithful nuts.
  20. Let's also not shed any tears for them either. Whatever we dish out to them, they have earned and then some. Also, anything that puts a stop to all that "Bring on Bama" garbage is good, IMHO.
  21. I think this topic may deserve its own thread.
  22. So you want UND athletics to be run like high school? You can have excellent student-athletes and success on the field/court/ice. It isn't a zero sum game.
  23. You are missing the point. If we are recruiting against schools with FCOA and don't fund FCOA ourselves, we are screwed. The rules have changed and we need to keep up with them.
  24. The point is that without FCOA, you can kiss any championships goodbye. What chance would Bubba or Brewster or Jones have recruiting in this area against teams with FCOA if UND doesn't fund FCOA? Next to nothing. The merits of FCOA are a separate topic; what matters is that it is here and we need to do it or be mediocre across the board permanently.
  25. I remember that game! One of the biggest post-game meltdowns in NFL history.
