Speaking of the women's hockey folks -> how pissed would they be if UND added a sport

Yeah I'm with you.

It was funny. You seem to be overthinking this. Minnesota hockey cracking a joke about UND doing a good job hosting a tourney their team didn't qualify for is funny. End of story.

Hockey had the benefit of being a Canadian sport in a town close to Canada and Minnesota, a state saturated with kids who could play. And a few countries overseas who could play. LAX is cute sport. But it doesn't fit here. There isn't a market for it. What next? Jai Alai?

Being a fast growing sport means very little when the big 4 sports here are very well entrenched.

UND would have zero competition in driving distance. Only 3 teams west of the Mississippi. 4 schools outside the eastern time zone. That would be problematic I think.

Sure. But Tennis ain't costing UND a ton of money. Probably one of the cheaper sports that can be offered. Soccer seems like a drain on UND's very finite resources with limited (if any) upside. It's not like UND is swimming in financial resources.

I'm very confused as well. Schools like NDSU and UND should probably have the minimum number of sports possible, and pump as much money as they can into the sports that can drive revenue/enthusiasm. I don't see men's soccer doing that in North Dakota. It looks like most teams get a few hundred fans.

You want to drop a cheap sport no one goes to watch in favor of a more expensive one no one goes to watch?

If you use the transitive property in hockey doesn't all but the very worst teams have an argument that they could be in the Frozen Four?

Feel kinda bad for the kid. Thought it went in!

That's what they did... in the tweet.

something looks wrong with my bracket. It has me having Harvard beating Ohio State even though I picked Ohio State to go to the frozen four. Can the boss go review?

Game seems pretty even so far

I'm on course to 7 for 8 in the first round (unless Michigan loses and/or QU melts down!) This may be the year I win it all!

OSU had as many goals as Harvard had shots in the second period.

I wonder how many are actually paying that amount. In law school, our "tuition" was like $60K or something absurd, but I don't know anyone who was paying that.

this is my year!

Its very fun when you have a decent team and can make the drive

This isn't about red v blue

Oral Bob shot the lights out against NDSU. Must have used all that good will... didn't save some for tonight. My bracket is wrecked. Had UVA in the title and UA in the elite 8. I dont watch a ton of ball, was very gut heavy lol

I doubt any of them would sell out.

Sounds expensive and unnecessary

Would UND fans be so wishy washy on Berry if they had made the Frozen Four in the tourney that got cancelled? Wasn't UND primed to make a run?

Do you know how many conferences there are?
