So you're sayin' that Northern Lights is too good a name for Kelly & co to come up with. So maybe he will want it to be the UND Kelly Green.

Is this all going on behind closed doors? The legislature's moratorium expires next year and there does not appear to be much going on in the news about the new name. In light of Kelly's reaction to the Gamma Phi sign, should we expect a lame weather related soccer-style name like Northern Lights?

I enjoy that fightingsioux4life is willing to post ideas that are not in line with everyone else. The perspective feels well thought out and usually comes with more substance than the 'haters'. There is a lot of Kool-Aid here and sometimes it's nice to hear a different viewpoint and a new way to look at things.

Looks like it's going to be 3 number one seeds and a number one seed slayer at the Frozen Four.

Still feel that way Sprig?

this. ^^^^^^^

Well, as long as you are dreaming, Wyoming for the 9th team. Then you can see what Klieman can do against Bohl.

Sorry, also new to sports betting... Bet $115 on UND & UND wins, do you collect $215 ($100 profit)?

Not a Jones fan by any means and feel that UND's basketball team was inconsistent, at best, this season, but......... UND was second in the Big Sky this year - without Brekke! Without Schuler for a good part of the year. Second! That means UND finished ahead of Montana, Montana State, Northern Colorado, and yes, even SUU. Again, not a Jones fan, but he had a long uphill road this year. Also, and do not extrapolate that I think hockey is taking the ability to win away from the rest of the programs, but he is recruiting basketball players to a school that acknowledges it is a hockey first school. These players are coming in knowing the darlings of the fan base are the hockey players (then probably the football team) and not the basketball players. That has to be a tough sell for the coaching staff. There is not a snowball's chance in #€|| that he is going to be fired after finishing second in the Big Sky.

Yes I do. The really funny thing is that you don't.

In my very humble opinion, NDSU, with their 12th seed, should be thankful they are not playing against the 16th seeded Wildcats. The Bison would have a VERY difficult time staying within 10 points of Weber.

Back on subject... Weber sure got a tough draw. Thought they might be able to notch a win in the first round, but to have to play Arizona!?!?! Not so much, now.

6th in the 14 team Southland this year... Coming back to the Summit to regain their pride? :/

Interesting that Miami - St Cloud works on iPad, but none of the other games

While I like your predictions, it seems that there is a greater need for an FCS conference in the west, since the Big Sky is the only game in town, so to speak. Now, if Idaho and New Mexico State were to join 6 teams in a split-off from the Big Sky and leave 7 or 8 teams in FCS, well, who knows?

I like your optimism on the football program, but on what grounds are you basing this statement? The football team has not even had spring practice yet. The optimism for Mussman's teams was always high at this time of year too.

Stopped reading other boards like anygivensaturday and championship subdivision because Bison trolls hijack every thread. It's not just here.

Bo Derek at her best!

You can't play for a trophy without the team name. No Indian head (Sioux), the trophy should be retired.

I would disagree that T Rex is in the minority. There are less than 20 siouxsports.com posters who have pledged for this. I am with T Rex; if the athletic dept, with a budget in excess of $20 million, does not feel it is even worthy of a reply to Ira or gfhockey, then they don't need to tap into my meager resources to replace the jerseys they currently have.

disagree. they will remember building a team TOGETHER.

apologies for being the spell police, but if you had spelled definitely correctly, it may not have auto corrected incorrectly.

I think you missed Cratter's point on this, Herd. The way I read it, he is not saying go back to DII and play Minot, Duluth, St Cloud... he is saying those that said UND couldn't move to DI/FCS because of the 'cost' actually 'cost' UND being on a level playing field with NDSU because of NDSU's head start into DI. He said "compete for championships" - that is what the Football Championship Subdivision does.

may have said the same about Schweigert in the national football search...
