I got a great education in the UND Business School and it's awesome that enrollment is up like it is. But the time has come for a new facility with all the bells and whistles needed to educate our students for the 21st Century. I imagine there are some well-off alums that would pitch in and help. And this is the perfect project for the UND Spirit Campaign fund.
And they have that only because of the turmoil in the athletic department in December 2007 that led us to promoting Mussman to head coach after Lennon left for SIU instead of conducting a proper, national search. And we are working on rectifying that now.
Good point regarding Braun, but I think the defense was overall pretty solid. 77 points isn't all that bad, although I would like it down in the mid-60's if possible. We'll need to be firing on all cylinders come conference tournament time if we want to get past Weber St. in March.
If this team cannot develop some sort of consistency from one game to the next, this will end in another home split. We are running out of time to build a resume for the national tournament in March.
Some food for thought on this cold Saturday night:
Craig Bohl to Gainesville to clean up the mess that is Florida Gator Football? NDSU's current high national profile might make Bohl more visible to big-time FBS programs that are looking to make a change at the top. Is it likely? No, but if you wanted to shake things up, plucking a successful FCS coach out of the Midwest would do it.

The question is, can we get consistent performance out of this team on back to back nights? Or will we keep playing well one night and bad the next (or vise-versa)? If it's the former, we have a chance to salvage the season. If it's the latter, we are screwed.
There were FOUR WCHA Playoff titles during the Hakstol era (2006, 2010, 2011, 2012). We also reached the title game in 2007, losing on Blake Wheeler's diving goal in OT. Of course, we all know what happened in Denver the following week!
I think he is talking in general about the "hot goalie" excuse being used to explain away losses. I don't think you have said it, but a lot of people on here have.
