The bison game is Dec 11th

The next step will be to rank the names 1 to 7, my guess is that they will cut the list down finally to the final 2-4 I haven't found a date yet, but looking as to how they structure their meetings I am guessing an early July meeting, something after the 4th I am convince we will have our 2-4 at the early July meeting that will be send to Kelley for the public vote No, I am guessing that will be discussed at the meeting or a later July meeting. Welcome to the club, we all feel the same. My prediction is the name is announced at homecoming

As a buddy once told me, 2nd round pick in the NBA = filers, salary dumps and Euro-stash Can you get really good players in the 2nd round, yes you can. (see Dennis Rodman). But more often than not its used for one of those 3 options above, You can literally buy 2nd round picks if you want it. The Wolves were not going to bring in 3 players, especially 2 with non-guaranteed deals. The deal they got for Tyus (trading 2 2nd round picks this year and a 2019 2nd round, which they have more than 1 with Miami's 2019 2nd rounder) is great value. T-Wolves needed to fill 2 holes and they did in the draft. A true backup point guard to shift LaVine to the 2 spot, and a Center in KAT. The Wolves have a lot of potential in the next few years and some of that will begin to pay dividends next year, so long as they 1) Develop and 2) Stay Healthy It will fun to see the Wolves fleece the Cavs again 2 years in a row.

And stops the lavine experiment at the point to slide at the more natural 2 spot

Elwood blues hat sunglass and black hockey jersey? SOLD!

Rolling rolling rolling... Rolling rolling rolling

Twins manage to take 2 of 3 from the god awful White Sox. How people though they could compete for a wild card spot is beyond me. Buxton strikes out 4 times Tonkin was send down, could Meyer finally get called up to help out the pen?

If Vegas and Seattle are chosen, how would divisions be realigned. They wouldn't put Vegas in the Central would they? Would there be a major realignment again? What about during that time Florida heads to QC and Arizona goes to Portland?

The logo can save 6 of the 7 names, making it look better than it seems There is no logo that can make Sundogs look good....

Kind of surprised with all the early starts this year, outside of the UNC game (which has a hockey conflict for a later start).

IIRC, they were told to rank their choices 1 to 7 and go from there. Im guessing an early July meeting takes care of that and they decide how the vote will run at the late July meeting.

Outside of Drake, 1PM starts for the football games this year. NDSU game kicks off at 230 PM

Good luck with that one Reid.

Twins beating the South siders like a drum. Buxton led off and got 3 hits and scored all 3 times. Vargas with a big night as well. Twins have a rotation decision to make with Santana coming back soon.

Redshirt next year and backup Geno when Hooker graduates is my guess. PG of future?

Something tells me that it is going to get messier.

Does speith make it 2 for 2 in majors this year?

Twins make it 3 in a row. Pitching has come around. Rosario is awesome.

I start it 1) I think they take 4 2) Despite what they say, I think those rankings they gave last week are an indication and expecting Roughriders, North Stars, Sundogs and Nodaks to move on 3) The vote will start in September, giving enough promotion time and students to return to campus, it will be done online, and will be limited (after much debate between Kelley and the committee) to UND ties ONLY (UND fans/students/alumni/faculty etc). The name will be announce at homecoming.

Lets steer away from polls for a second. I predict a July meeting and they decide the finalists. I pose these questions. 1) How many names will advance?(2 to maybe 4) 2) What are the names that will advance to the finalists? 3) How do the committee finally decide how to conduct the vote, when the vote happens, and who gets to choose?

If UND want to make a run to the top of the Sky, these three things needs to happen 1) Development of Shanks and Cashman into more consistent post players. 2) Newcomers need to make an immediate impact 3) Hooker takes next step in his development and becomes a Big Sky POY candidate. Anybody hear how summer is going for these guys?

What might have been.... we could have put 2 Big Sky banners up the first 2 years if things broke our way.

Twins managed a split against the Redbirds, taking the 2 games at Target Field. Vargas hits a walk off HR today.

A riot on campus.

Truth of the matter, its the majority theme on campus right now. Another surprise, more people want North Stars and not Roughriders in that group
