  1. Yeah, I've always thought the people getting paid $250,000 per year were paid that much to make decisions and should take the heat/praise that goes with those decisions.
  2. How many other women's sports have drawings for free tuition at their games? Women's hockey does. How many other women's teams have the marketing in an entire season the women's hockey team receives just for the gophers series? Weird that of the female sports, UND spends the most money on the 3rd most popular sport, and that's without allocating any facility costs to it.
  3. I agree that Title IX should only be part of the process. Instead, everytime cuts are being considered a few in power start screaming TITLE IX whenever a cut to a women's sport is brought up as a potential option. Ah yes and here come the sexism complaints. After dumping M&W S&D and WIH, we'll still have 9 women's sports and 7 men's. Not all of the funding from those cut sports will be completely cut either. Some will be redistributed to other sports (likely more towards women's sports than men's) so our teams, yes even the women's teams, can be more competitive.
  4. That article confirms it for me. Women's hockey is NOT needed at UND.
  5. And for how long....

    2016 Season

    He threatened me too. Guy's a tool.
  7. Aren't the Apollo fields newly renovated?
  8. Looking at the makeup of the committee, it will be very difficult to cut swimming with a student on the swim team and Irle in the room.
  9. UND enrollment is now 53% male. We are way over on Title IX compliance. The men on campus should sue.
  10. Agreed. I'd have a lot of respect for Kennedy if it did though.
  11. There are 2 women's teams playing in a building connected to the Ralph who could be given access to the private chef and all the perks....
  12. From the Faison Press Conference thread under the Other Sports forum, where much of this has been discussed.
  13. In 2013-14 they spent $1.3 million and had around $40,000 in revenue (with all REA facility expenses attributed to the Men's team). Rumor is the number now is closer to $2.5 million. Regardless of the veracity of the rumor, I can't imagine it's gotten any better since 2013-14.
  14. How many more daughters do they have? Keep the team for 2 seasons until Lisa graduates?
  15. Just cutting women's hockey would get us well past the $1.4 million. We'd be able to properly invest in M&W BB then.
  16. I also find Kennedy's mention of the relationship with the REA to be interesting. Seems to be alot of expenses there, some of which may be of minimal benefit to the fans and already duplicated at UND.
  17. The $1.4 million deficit was for 2015-16. The baseball and golf programs weren't cut yet in 2015-16.
  18. I don't think most of us would deny conference realignment is being looked at as AN option. I have an issue with some portraying it as the ONLY option.
  19. Not comparing him to anyone. Just saying his opinion shouldn't necessarily be taken as fact.
  20. Your knowledge of my knowledge of Schlossman's knowledge is infinitely limited.
  21. I was referring specifically to his statement that didn't leave "remaining a full member of the Big Sky" as an option. SV's FBS ideas are just SV's FBS ideas.
  22. Not saying he's wrong, but Schlossman's knowledge outside of hockey is pretty limited.
  23. I was under the impression they were keeping that as a rainy day fund in case UND doesn't make the NCHC tournament one year. An extra $1 million seems like a lot to hold onto on top of what is already in reserve. If they were to use the money to upgrade video streaming or something then it'd make sense.
  24. $500,000 NCHC admission fee. So assuming the NCHC takes 2 teams at some point, that's $1 million for the league (with approx. $40,000 used for vetting expenses of new teams). Anyone know if that would be distributed to the current members or would the league retain it for future investment/expenses?
