  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Kudos to you for paying homage to the greatest comic strip of all time, "Calvin and Hobbes"!!!
  6. 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).
  7. Even using it one time could be construed as a violation of copyright law.
  8. 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.
  9. I didn't think Through These Doors was being sold to the public.
  10. Studsrud reminds me a little of Kelby Klosterman, one of the best pure athletes we have ever had at QB.
  11. Doesn't make sense to me. What is the difference?
  12. But UND could replay the title game at the victory gathering last Monday?
  13. You missed the at the end of the message. I was being a smart-a$$.
  14. 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?
  15. I'll believe it when the Heraldo or WDAZ reports it.
  16. He can't use the "one and done" excuse this time, either.
  17. Somehow, I don't think that will be a problem this time. The Capitals are dialed in this year.
  18. Not yet. I imagine they are coming soon.
  19. I believe this national championship in hockey marks the beginning of a new Golden Age of UND athletics. FB will soon be challenging for conference and national titles, WBB will get back to the NCAA tournament, WH will get over the hump and start making appearances in the Women's Frozen Four and MH will continue doing what they are doing right now. As for MBB, if Jones doesn't take us to the top of the Big Sky Conference, then we'll find someone that will. I could be wrong about all this, but it is amazing what hanging #8 can do for confidence and expectations. And I think that is a rising tide that will lift all boats.
  20. This guy talks like NDSU is FBS in football and could beat Alabama. This is exactly the type of garbage we have had shoved in our faces for 5+ years now. And that is why I am rubbing their noses in this championship every chance I get. Karma and paybacks are a b!tch.
  21. Troy Riedlinger of Grand Forks, ND. Here is the original discussion thread on the subject.
  22. I think that adds up to Dallas in 4 or 5 games.
  23. It is amazing that a team can pick high in the 1st round every year and still not get any better. Are they picking the wrong kids? Are they not developing them properly? I can't figure that one out.
  24. Yeah, I thought this program was big on going to class and getting good grades?
