If wins and losses are 100% irrelevant, we are officially running this program like a high school program.

Lol yourself. This isn't funny. My point is that Chaves will keep extending him indefinitely so he doesn't have to have that difficult conversation with him. And if he does that, you'll probably give us another contract negotiation lesson in support of it.

So basically Bubba has a lifetime contract as long as he wants it. Unacceptable. But keep cheerleading him if you want. I am through listening to the alibis and excuses.

That had better not happen.

That putrid situation ends in 2030.

So our obligation is to put up and shut up? Do that if you want, but don't expect the rest of us to do it. The opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy. Your post has more than a touch of that.

Making the playoffs in a severely watered-down down FCS is not a great accomplishment. There are high schools in Texas with higher expectations for their FB team than there is here. To each their own.

It doesn't matter whose fault it is? So there is no accountability for Chaves on down? Everyone gets extended into infinity and the rest of us are supposed to just shut up and accept it? Sorry, but that is 1000% unacceptable. What a nice racket Chaves has set up for himself and the rest of the department! The only one who can change it is Armacost.

Name one hire that Chaves has made that has worked out in any meaningful way. You can't........unless you are fine with all the mediocrity. I am not with it.

I look at it differently. The resources available make a crap product less tolerable, not more. There is no excuse for underachieving with the resources available here.

But we can't expect that kind of success here because the NCAA tournament is "one and done" and it's all about "luck". (sarcasm) Cripes, our program is sinking into the black hole of low expectations and even worse results. I am sick of playing second and third fiddle to other teams in the national college hockey scene. This should not be a problem here. Ever.

If you want to defend Chaves, go ahead. But his record speaks for itself. And it's not pretty.

Okay wise guy, I'll call your bluff. I'll happily pitch in something. I think a lot of people would do the same.

Apathy. It's what happens when the AD keeps rewarding mediocrity.

Any of the excuse makers want to rationalize this away?

I was thinking the same thing.

Did you start drinking early today?

I'm just very bearish on UND athletics right now. Too much mediocrity and too little concern for it.

I am shocked (the good kind).

So that's what we are reduced to? Waiting for weaker opponents so we can win games and grab some league points? That's a one way ticket to perennial mediocrity. This whole athletic department is trending that way.

UND athletics as a whole is getting like this. It's getting really hard to swallow.

This is getting out of control.

Tie game!

Have we scored a single breakaway goal this season?

I'd still be at home. FB looks to be a blowout loss for the home team, but I don't want to miss the last home game. Hockey has plenty of home games left.
