You said alumni donations are down. Just curious if that's a fact or a guess.

Anyone with a good feel for how the vote on the new Student Union is going to go today?

Maybe when the current granite logos wear out

Just my opinion/guess, but I'd say the majority knows we need to move on, are trying to move on, but are still struggling to embrace the current name and logo. The new name is tough to get excited about and the new logo, although unique as far as NCAA sports goes (good for creating an identity), is not gaining much/any traction among the hockey crowd. It doesn't help that those who do embrace the name and logo are often ridiculed by Sioux forevers, making cheering for the hawks something that doesn't seem worth the fight. Perhaps 3-5 years from now, once things have settled a bit more, people will be more willing to accept a new logo. At that time, the REA and hockey staff will need to be fully on board, or nothing will improve. They could've helped a lot with the current logo, but they didn't, and it's likely too late to salvage now.

Rudy - $90-100k Knauf - $50-60k

A true logo as in one not associated with the University you claim to support?

Heard he's out of football.

Good point.

I'm fine with it. Mankato likely would've given UND all it could handle and then some for most of the past decade.

My thoughts as well before the most recent changes. Was a solid $5-6 pizza, but they're still trying to charge delivery chain prices. I'll try one when I find it on sale for that price.

I'd be happy with a Heavy Line right now.

"Promote" him to QBs and Special Teams Coordinator. Kostich to WRs.

One issue, and I hope it's not the only reason, could be money. Scheduling the away portion of a home and home for 2019 means around $100,000 in extra travel cost for 2019. Scheduling an fbs money game would mean another likely loss. And paying another non scholly fcs to come to the Al would also be around a $100,000 loss.

We're not UNI. Will need 7 wins, or to have a game canceled.

So you agree with me that there's no way Bubba specifically told Rudy not to run screens or pass to the TEs. Good

You're right. I'm sure Bubba pulled Rudy aside and said "you know, we have really athletic RBs. Don't throw them the ball. I don't like that."

How about points allowed?

Maybe he did. Maybe he's hands off on offense. I don't sit in the meetings.

And it's been happening for years. This wasn't a new issue.

Bubba certainly wanted a conservative offense. However, a competent conservative offense still throws the ball to the RBs and TEs. There is absolutely no way Bubba told Rudy to never run screens and never pass to the TEs. That was on Rudy and should improve going forward. Unfortunate that it's coming too late to use 2 of the best RBs in UND history.
