Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up.

AND Blais did it without a shiny $104 Million arena.

We can put a stop to that nonsense starting January 10th.

FYI, his dog died recently.

Chaves better learn from the Bubba extension fiasco.

You must be bored if you hang out on a rival's discussion forum all the time.

He's doing it in one of the smallest and oldest arenas in the country.

Schmidt has done a great job retaining key players. Look for him to make a big splash in the spring portal period. Winning right away will help make it easier to recruit high school seniors, which is how the program needs to be built in the long-term.

If Minot can get away with this, then I suggest Grand Forks merge the Central and Red River boys teams into the Knightriders. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Some division winner in the NFC is going to be pissed at having to play a 14 win wild card team at home.

When isn't there a "falling out" between KEM and the organizations she works with? This has become a pattern with her. 2030 cannot come soon enough.

Agree 100%. But I think a talent upgrade in a few well-placed positions could make the defense noticeably better.

I know that there will be a flood of FBS players in the portal because of the new roster limits. And my comment was more about the dearth of talent on the team right now. If we wanted to keep almost all of our current players, we could have just kept Bubba.

Aside from the O-Line and a couple of RBs, there isn't one player that can't be replaced with someone better.

I guess we'll see if that happens or not.

Then how many years should Denver have to miss the NCAA tournament for winning 3 Nattys over 8 years (excluding the COVID year)?

I feel the same way. As a GFC student, I both reviled and feared them. But the high school game is lacking without their presence.

But the ghosts need a place to live too! (sarcasm) 😝

Schmidt has to use the portal to upgrade the talent level of the team. That will lead to better outcomes on game day and make it easier to recruit better players and athletes.

I just wanted to wish everyone on siouxsports.com (yes, even the trolls) a Merry Christmas and best wishes for the upcoming New Year 2025. I hope for better days ahead for UND athletics and for personal happiness and health for everyone and their families. 🎅

After 15+ years of (mostly) disappointing results, people are understandably cynical about the program. I think Schmidt will be different (a lot different), but it will take time for him to put his stamp on this team.

So is this good for the whole state (sarcasm)? 😛

No, no, no, a hundred times NO. I don't care what realignment did to the college game, the Goofs are still my #1 enemy.

That should go without saying.
