Dubay is nothing more than an over glorified fan.

I agree Jeff Dubay is not what I call a credible source the guy is nothing more than a Gopher Hockey Geek/rube that got lucky and ended up in the chair of a major sport talk radio station. I guess that being said there is hope for us too.

The checking from behind rule is going to suck. Here is why every game there are a lot of calls that could be called checking from behind, however they are seldom called correctly. Don Adam's non call in the final five was a perfect example of this. However, I feel that UND even before this rule came to fruition always gets the short end of calls, and now are going to suffer even more. Especially if they keep up with the stiffling defensive style of play, the refs are going to make up calls to keep it close. It would have been easier just to fire of fine bad officials like Don Adam.

That would be even less representative if the people actually picked themselves to be in the survey because then your data is going to be skew to a particular point of view, hence the negative results towards indian logos.

' I have the solution to that equation. Cut funding to schools that use American Indian names, I guess we would just have to cut some programs. Moronic. NCAA sports are a million dollar business. Thank god these people aren't really anything more than just psuedo positions. They can make a bunch of noise but really don't hold much power.

I think the issue is that an EZAC schools was complaining (remember discussion by cornell fans wanting team to come to Cornell and suggesting they would win if UofM had to play them at their small barn) about Minnesota having an unfair avantage by playing on their home ice. Of course mind you many people over look the fact that Cornell was highly over-rated because of the weak a$$ed league they play in. Forgetting that fact that Cornell didn't beat many teams I would have considered to be elite. I guess even during the NCAA Frozen Four Cornell coach Schaffer was complaining about how his team had been jobbed and had his frozen four appearance taken from him because they had to unfairly play Minnesota in Minnesota. Even Barry Melrose was trying to say that Cornell had one of the best teams in the country I disagree with these morons... So I believe that is what the east coast elite are talking about. The snobs out east are probably upset that it was an all west final and that the NCAA hockey really isn't about them. On the flip side of this UND had the ultimate iron man competition and instead of whinning and going one and done they took it to the Boston Schools and dismantled them. One could make the arguement that Worchester was in Boston schools back yard so I am not buying this argument either. For the geographically challenged Worchester is only like 35 miles from Boston.

Its not hard to ask the questions that will skew the results in favor of any agenda you have. I am sure the questions were biased and were asked in a way to make the answer negative towards Native logos. IF I am not mistaken Indian Country is a leftist news paper so its not surprising that they would adopt this view. I found this to be an interesting opinion. I don't necessarily agree with this.

It will never happen, the NCAA isn't going to slit its throat for a nick name. I'd bet anyone that thinks this.

Honestly, The NCAA can not (Did you hear me name change trolls) make these schools change their names, the article in the Heraldo earlier this year said so. All this is, in my opinion is window dressing for the leftist eliets. You know the ones that fit the mold, the misfit sociology/humanities professors, or insert professor from the arts and science department that have nothing better to do with their time than biotch about atheletic team names. Its almost like they are actually listening to morons like Doren Yellow Bird, by the way that woman is a kook, a nut job. A bunch of hand wringing liberals who want to change the name of sports teams. Come on really, its like there is nothing more important in the world than these people opinion's. All I can say is good For FSU, but their name isn't going anywhere.

I guess they don't think the WCHA has that great of players. Most of them seem to be from the NE.
-
Agree, great job, now its time to get into the weight room gain some weight and get ready to shine at UND, I think he has a lot of offensive skills. I watched this kid during the ND hockey tourney and he is definately a good player. Central was not as loaded as their teams past and Jake was definately one of the best players in the ice during the east region and state tourney. Jake can take the puck from end to end and bury the puck.

I just hope that the NHL signs after Greene reports to UND's fall camp.
-
I agree with that statement.
-
Well I am not very good at math but I would say that he has a 33% chance of getting the job. Those are pretty good odds.
-
Why would they say no. The NCC is a better league than the NSIC, the NSIC is percieved as a week league like the CHA is in hockey. Also, if Winona is in the NCC, we dont' have to worry about them competing for a spot in the NCAA tourney then because if they were in the NCC I can't see them walking to a conference title like they do in the NSIC. Concordia is also a legitimate up and coming school and played NDSU tough its last year in division II.

I think that Lucia for some reason likes the defensemen that I would consider offensive/with the potential to be pylons, hence the name pylons. Last years two offensive freshmen defense had the ability to get caught up ice causing a scoring opportunity in their own end. I would refer to them as not being very good defensively, and not having any idea where the defensive zone is. These two rookies also got burned quite a few times during the WJC last winter too. So the Goofs can have that type of defensemen, it seems to work well when they play UND. Actually UND really hasn't had one like that since Roache left. As for blind ignorance and allegiance to the Gophers I look at that as a character flaw.

They said as much during the articles in the Heraldo.

He sucks worse than Eddie the Blow Hard Schultz.
