UND has primarily played man defense this year. If we play any zone at all, I would expect to just mix it in on occasion trying to catch AZ off-guard. Starting bigs include Bernstine, a 6'8" forward who is fairly athletic and Avants, a 6'7" forward who plays bigger than he is, though that's not saying a lot. Avants is more athletic than most expect looking at him, though again, he won't be much compared to what AZ is probably used to. We have Shanks usually coming off the bench at 7'0", but he isn't real athletic and usually gets in foul trouble pretty quickly. Also a 6'6" forward in Collins off the bench who is decent on D, but minimal threat on O. Our guards, Hooker, Baldwin, Crandall, and Seales, are the real threat to you guys. If they're hot from 3, we'll give you a scare. Those 8 are likely the only ones who will see the court, barring foul trouble or a major blowout. Will usually have 3 guards and 2 bigs playing at a time. Edit: And welcome to the board!

No mention of source of funds. Regardless, good to see the university spending toward the future.

Could a logo be coming to the 50 yard line?
-
Source?

I wonder if they'd upgrade the lettering to the new athletics font as well.
-
Good point, maybe they'll remove the entire helmet and just put the new logo up there?
-
Looks like the Alerus may be upgrading to a F'N Hawks helmet
-
Wonder if he'd be interested in being the AD someplace? Has a good history of getting a new rink built wherever he goes.

More like the Dallas Cowboys, in that they get a lot of press even though they haven't been a top team in a couple decades.

Current duties, as listed on website: Hajdu - MHKY, XC, T/F Powell - FB, MBB, M/WGOF Ladue - SOC, WHKY, SB, TN Wigness - WBB, VB, BB, S/D Suggested: Men's hockey - Hajdu - MHKY, XC, T/F MBB - Powell - MBB, VB, M/WGOF FB - Wigness - FB, WBB, S/D Leftovers - Ladue - SOC, WHKY, SB, TN That was easy, only had to switch 2 sports and remove baseball. Once another program or 2 is cut, we could probably eliminate one of these positions as well. Sorry guys.

I don't think we need to add any more administrative staff. Just need to better allocate responsibilities among current staff.
-
It's a microcosm of the UND athletic department's media relations the past 10 years. If it isn't hockey, it's not a priority.
-
Is he on now or when did he say that?
-
Yeah when I was running scenarios, it is very possible for UND to miss if it goes winless.
-
Looking at the coaching staff they're putting together, they may struggle to reach 2nd. Pulling their offensive coordinator and I believe at least one position coach from the high school ranks seems pretty risky.
-
Powell has likely been busy with MBB the past few days. And judging by the KFAN interview miss, he's got a bit much on his plate right now. Perhaps UND would be wise to split the media duties for the 2 biggest collegiate sports in America between 2 of our 4 SIDs, rather than putting them both with the same guy.
-
Not letting the radio station know you're cancelling the interview may have a negative effect on future opportunities with said station and that station's portrayal of certain future events as they relate to UND.
-
Apparently they finally got the details hammered out.
-
One win and we're in. Barring that, we'd really like to see Quinnipiac and Boston College lose. One interesting thing I've found running various scenarios is the B1G can have anywhere from 1 to 4 teams in the tournament.
-
With the primary issue there being their bigs waiting at the hoop. Would be nice to get them in foul trouble too, but UND will not be getting the calls in this game, even worse than against Weber.
-
Not great work by CBS on that graphic. Nearly every team's logo is washed out.
-
It'll all come down to our 3-point shooting, IMO. If Hooker, Baldwin, and Crandall are hot, we'll certainly put a scare into them and an upset is possible. Seales needs to knock down his mid-range turnaround jumpers. Drick, Avants, Shanks, and Collins..... rebound, defend, and make your free-throws and put-backs.
