UNDBIZ

They?? You must mean "We." I'm going to cash my check from the NCAA right after I post this....

@Bison Dan - Why are you so obsessed with UND? Did UND not accept you or something??

That would make us all happy....

The 3,000 number must include playoffs. So an average of 200 ypg in 15 games is more than modest

He's just an ignorant POS looking to make some money off the situation....

He's the kind of player that gets drafted #1 or #2 in the NHL draft.....

"Idaho may be worse."

No defensemen who actually play defense allowed.....

Feds > State

Hopefully if UND earns a home playoff game they'll be allowed to host....

I'd say that's a fair pre-season rank, although I feel it is more than reasonable to expect UND to reach #3 by the end of the season.

I believe they are required to have the funds committed before they can start. A lot of changes were made to the rules regarding capital projects after the NDSU President's House Presidential Mansion fiasco...

well the last sentence of may previous statement still applies.... And that's where he'd be practicing/spending most of his time

I've seen some comments from Portland fans hoping that Jones pays a visit and catches a game to help encourage him to choose the WHL. I really hope he does visit their arena before making a decision, as that would make UND and The Ralph a LOCK!!! No way the WHL can compete with UND's facilities. If Jones wants to get ready for the NHL, he'd be best served by getting on the UND weight-training program and spending the next year in the finest facility in the US.

It is a pretty piss-poor investment.... from a business standpoint.

Are they friends or just because it improves the team??

Must admit I am shocked by this one..... Good to hear though!!

The future NHLers would be wise to take an introductory personal finance/investments course (with the rate professional athletes declare bankruptcy). Very basic, simple things.... but things most people don't know or think of. I recall Oshie and several others being in my class.

There are "tutors" for that.....

I agree that he handled the situation properly by not committing to UND and then backing out, however, it would still appear he used UND as leverage to get himself traded to Portland....

hopefully she doesn't get herpes...

because he would have to play competitive hockey.....

You can watch Doomsday Preppers on National Geographic for ideas....

You should hold your breath until that happens FYI: A settlement is what happens when the case is ended before one side wins....
