Braxton verses Walter. Gee I wonder what Rahe is going to call plays for?

both teams are cold as ice Weber 5 UND 2 Under 16

Vikings hire Philly's QB coach as their OC

This might be ISU's best chance to end that long losing streak against UND. They have never beaten them in BSC play. Weber can't afford to drop this one if they want to catch Montana.

They should have done whatever it took to get Lance, oh well. What about the Perham kid in 2019?

Apologies for getting this up so late but a busy schedule has not allowed me to go fully in-depth with this game thread. UND is looking to make it 5 in a row against Weber and to get a big road victory. Can they build on their Griz performance? Or will the Wildcats assert their will and keep pace with the Griz?

Anything less than the gold for women's hockey is unacceptable. Time to get it done

Jimmy G just got 5 year/137.5 million contract in SF. Drives up the price for Kirk.

This is an interesting list and it does tell a part of the picture. I won't get too much into details (but potentially will at a later date). I've always have thought of the recruiting in these brief terms. HS: Gotten some really good players (especially guards), the bigs have been hit or miss JUCO: Outside of Baldwin and flashes of Traylor not so hot. Transfers: Solid, although a couple of duds (see 14-15 season) *I still get bothered by the Huff class, they are one of the greatest what-if questions in UND sports history. What if Brekke never took that elbow? What if the NCAA didn't screw over Nash? What if Traylor got his grades in order his junior year? Answer yes to those three questions and I say we have 3 BSC titles and not 1. *BTW: you have 1 big omission (Geno)

Unless Philly can get a 1st rounder from a desperate team, keep him for the year. Tell Wentz to keep doing his rehab and when he is ready, the job is his. What I mean by that is if he isn't ready for Week 1 or 2, start Foles and turn it over to Wentz Week 3. Heck, you could win another ring in Philly! I'm sure he doesn't need the money.

Brees isn't going anywhere He will retire a Saint and be the modern day Archie Manning for what he has done for that city.

Its going to be a lot more that 20 M, its going to be at least 30 M. If the Redskins franchise tag him? Then its money and picks. Of course if I am Cousins I say yes to tag and get paid $35 million and tell the Redskins to kick rocks on any trade. The contract will at least be 5 years/150 million. Do the Vikings have the stomach for it?

I think the Vikings will avoid the Al Davis syndrome.

It’s either going to be Case or Teddy. Brees isn’t going anywhere, Cousins will be too much $$.

I'm shocked they even got called for one

So when will another college make the splash and add hockey? Will it happen within 5 years? 10 years?

His last 4 games haven't been very good, Billy Brown has scored more points than he has in this last stretch. If you look at Q and Marlon stats from their sophomore years they are very, very, very similar. I think what he has over Q at this point of their careers was a better team (That 14-15 team was a disaster). I think the big thing he needs to work on this offseason is his 3 point shooting, he cannot shoot it at 29%. That is where is growth is going to be, otherwise he will get the Rondo treatment, they will back off and say "we don't care if you shoot it or not, we do not think of you as a threat on the outside." To a lesser extent, I would like Seales to take at least 1-2 3's a game. That would make him even deadlier with his old school mid-range stuff Walter... perhaps its just me being overly harsh because of the thinness of the forwards, but he needs to figure it out and fast. He needs to put on some solid muscle this offseason because if you though this year was precarious... wait til next year. I know Jal is coming in and hopefully Jaqwan can be an impact player (but he is more a 3/4 than 4/5) but after Avants, can you tell me confidently who will play beside him next year and be a solid contributor? Walter will have the most experience out of the bunch outside of Avants. I don't know if Franken could overtake him in the rotation but it will be something to watch.

UND shot 3-17 from 3 not good enough. 4 empty possession in a row after Akoh got his fourth foul not good enough 4 3's in the final frame that clanged out. Not good enough there's your difference.

Griz 72 UND 67 Final They played well but UND will see this one in their sleep

Griz 72 UND 67 7 seconds

silly Craven they won't call an offensive foul on the Griz on the inbound.

Griz 70 UND 67 10 seconds 3 by Geno

UND 2-14 from 3

Griz 69 UND 64 26 seconds TO UND

strangely enough, they got the stops they misses the shots. UND had their chances to pull this out but too many empty possession Let another one get away
