Oh no you don't.....I knew someone was going to try and pull that. Not on my watch. Of course Texas has different overall expectations vs. North Dakota (or even NDSU for that matter). But the same principles of excellence can be applied wherever you are. For UND, that means being perennial Big Sky conference contenders in both the regular season and in the post-season tournament, which will translate in NCAA tournament appearances and eventually some wins. The Cow College one hour south of here has established expectations like these and it is high time Faison and Kelley start doing the same around here.

Yep, the teams from that conference are very plucky and play like there is nothing to lose. Because for them, there isn't.

Not at most schools.....

Was just seeing if I could get a reaction out of you. Mission accomplished!

That was over 10 years ago and we did beat them in two big games (the 2001 national title game and a 2004 national quarterfinal game in Grand Forks), so don't count your chickens before they are hatched on that one. And who knows what their intentions are? They could be discussing a possible Division I move in the future, especially with all the talk of realigning divisions.

http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/12571138/rick-barnes-coach-texas-longhorns So a coach with a boatload of regular-season wins (and an overall winning percentage of .690) gets fired for limited post-season success? Too bad he didn't coach in Grand Forks, ND, where the standards aren't all that high to begin with.

And here we go with this again. Someone please put Webster's definition on here.

Same here.

I think Duluth did that today.

Looks like I'll be sucking wind as usual! My sports predictions are usually not that good anyway.

Tech will be back, I don't think this was a one year thing. I thought we looked solid in all areas tonight, always room for improvement of course. Hard to stay out of the box when the refs can't decide what is a penalty and what isn't. Quinnipiac got away with way too much crap. I really hope tomorrow's game is consistently called one way or the other. They were almost as bad as those baseball umpires who call strikes that are two feet off the plate.

And that was after back to back games (and one of them went to OT).

Hey, you just jinxed him!

Very impressed with the overall effort and execution, which has overcome the very inconsistent officiating.

Especially tonight.

Wasn't that Don Adam?

Who are these refs anyway. I am sure they aren't NCHC or ECAC.

Then they better call that against Quinnipiac the next time they do it. Cripes, they power-bombed one of our guys earlier and no call.

Sioux just got called for something Quinnipiac has been doing all game.

Review coming up.

No, just plain "Stars" would work better.

Where did he do this? He didn't do it in the Heraldo this morning.

Then those "others" shouldn't be savaging those that are tired of the issue and don't want to fight about it anymore. I have had my loyalty questioned on this basis and I simply will not tolerate it.

You just described that whole facility in six simple words. Well done.

Sounds good to me!
