UNDBIZ

Travel hockey at age 10 is 70% keeping up with the Joneses, 20% drinking/hanging with the other parents, and 10% making the kid happy/perception of giving greater opportunity. It's also about 97% built on credit card debt.

This is it, the time has come, Santiago busts a 50+ yard TD in this game.

He played in at least one game this year though, so wouldn't he need the medical RS?

Started at UND in 2000-01, year after we won the natty. Was coaching in the USHL prior to that and I don't think he ever made the playoffs. Won a lot of conference championships with UND, obviously.

This thread probably isn't completely clean, but most of the DaveK vs the world stuff has been moved to

He's a senior now.

He was a true freshman last year, right?

Lol, he specifically mentions the family facts list for penalty box heckling.

Thing is, they're not trying to convince the people of North Dakota to be against the pipeline. This is a Washington DC fight and federal politicians are influenced by celebrities. The anti-oil folks are hoping the ND law enforcement messes up and seriously hurts someone, as it will allow for a federal crackdown on ND and will give ammunition for a permanent freeze on construction of the DAPL.

And UNI flies up to top 5.

Could Bolinske be the guy after Studsrud graduates?

UND 34 Weber 24 in a game where nobody really feels comfortable until the end. Weber with 2 touchdowns from 35+ yards out.

Yep. Watching a sport in SD with obnoxious commentators was worse than I remembered. Good win UND.

Something I'm thankful for: MidcoSports

With Montana coming to town, look for the EWU number to spike this week. Hopefully we have solid numbers against Weber and can stay ahead of them.

They'll just reduce budgets for non-hockey programs.

The deficit was mostly addressed with cutting baseball, privately funding men's golf, and increasing revenue (tickets, fundraising, etc.). It's not really a hard number that has to be addressed by a certain date. UND will just continue cutting/limiting non-hockey programs and shifting around the money.

For those not traveling to Duluth. Support UND athletics and the city of Grand Forks. Football tickets start at just $12.50 ($7.50 for kids) and you can still watch the hockey game in HD..... Just throwing it out there.

When I was a student, turning football into a frat party probably would've made me less likely to go.

I'm not a fan of slashing prices 50% or just giving them away to anybody, but I would support giving large discounts to local high school/JV football teams to attend games as a team. Would be surprised if we aren't already, actually. And to make it completely free for those kids to attend, I can't imagine it would be too terribly difficult to get local businesses/boosters to kick in $250 per team.

1,200 more than Weber. Is the mvfc extending us an invite?

Ah that makes more sense. Last time they played UND, probably.

Seriously? Washington St, ndsu, UNI (regardless of record, their defense is solid), even Cal Davis D is decent. EWU has done more to earn their ranking than most. Are you just trolling for the mvfc?

Power rankings appear to be based on blowing out bad teams and quality losses. Don't care.
