    Is the MVC without Creighton and Wichita really a better conference? Will they still get the occasional more than 1 bid to The Dance?
  2. zonadub
    This makes sense in light of UND being the 11th team in the MVFC. East/West divisions will let Youngstown make only 1 or 2 trips at the most to the Dakotas in a year. 5 intradivision games and 3 interdiction games in an 8 game season. Murray will also keep the balance of MVFC power leaning to the MVC.
  3. zonadub
    especially if Snyder retires and Taylor hired Bohl to replace him
  4. zonadub
    So the question is... Why is the MVC better than the Summit, especially now after WSU leaves? full disclosure: still prefer the Big Sky better to the Summit
  5. zonadub
    Does this have traction anywhere outside this board?
  6. zonadub
    Would trade the Indiana alphabet soups for the Montanas in a heartbeat! With the decline of the MVC, maybe UNI would move to the Summit too.

    Maybe Jones is holding out for a bigger raise than Faison is offering

    According to ESPN, Jake's contract has been extended thru 2027 (two more years). Reports were that his last extension in 2015 was for $900,000 per year. This extension must put him at $1 Million or more a year. Congrats Coach.

    So, when will it no longer be considered bad timing/poor taste to announce an extension and raises for Jones and his staff?

    The harsh reality for the women's hockey supporters is that there is no way UND could have made that level of cost cutting without cutting women's hockey. Any other combination of teams/sports would not have been able to save the athletic dept as much as including women's hockey could. UND needs to maintain enough sports, Faison said 16, to remain NCAA compliant. Softball, soccer, tennis are not nearly as expensive combined as WIH was. The depth of cost cutting UND made yesterday clears the way for the other programs to be supported at a championship level, and should allow UND to pay the football and basketball staffs at competitive levels and allow them to keep their staff in place for more than a year at a time. i still think the dropping of baseball last year was a set-up to clear Title IX compliance to drop women's hockey this year. Sad to see baseball had to take the hit, especially now that UND is heading to the Summit, but that might be why the team was cut a year ago.

    Thinking back to a post gfhockey made yesterday -that a neighbor of a S & D coach had said that sport was being cut makes me think that 1. gfhockey's info was good and 2. At least the coaches knew before today' press conference. If they did know, there was the opportunity for them to tell their players, if they felt it was appropriate so, if Idalski knew, like the S&D coach did, was he really out of town "recruiting"?
  13. zonadub
    Or... baseball and men's golf were sacrificed last year to clear the Title IX path to drop women's hockey now.
  14. zonadub
    Or a black eye for the ND budget?
  15. zonadub
    More than a baseball team
  16. zonadub
    Where is the outrage on behalf of the s/d teams? They are just as impacted as the wh team, yet they are getting no ink.
  17. zonadub
    Funding other sports at a championship level. Raises for coaching staffs, especially assistants?
  18. zonadub
    Make it a club team
  19. zonadub
    Not that I'm aware of. I just don't see any other reason to justify that $2 MM a year money pit.
  20. zonadub
    Yeah, my point was not that I think the B1G is going to add women's hockey, just that if UND women's hockey is saved, it should be because both teams are going to the B1G
  21. zonadub
    The only thing that should keep WIH on the roster is if the B1G is starting a women's conference and having a women's team is a requirement of inviting UND to the B1G hockey conference.
  22. zonadub
    Or the implementation of the cuts are delayed, starting with the 2018-19 school year. Unless it is only women's hockey.
  23. zonadub
    Looks like soccer is not being cut Citowicki joins soccer staff http://www.undsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=13500&ATCLID=211536593

    As they say... if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there, does it make a noise?

    UND joins the MVFC in 2020
