    And there it is... Figured someone would respond with this lazy argument. Why not contribute to the discussion by articulating why you think their strategy is wrong? Obviously everyone here was wrong last year, when they were criticizing Rudolph for starting Heidlebaugh in the Montana game, right? Oh wait.... Rudolph had to pull him, play Zimmerman the second half, and later switch Heidlebaugh to wide reciever! I wonder how Rudolph could have made that mistake when he, after all, is the Offensive Coordinator and understands personnel and scheme so much better than us simpletons... "The courtier's reply is an alleged type of logical fallacy, coined by American biologist PZ Myers, in which a respondent to criticism claims that the critic lacks sufficient knowledge, credentials, or training to pose any sort of criticism whatsoever.[1] It may be considered a form of argument from authority." "A key element of a courtier's reply, which distinguishes it from an otherwise valid response that incidentally points out the critic's lack of established authority on the topic, is that the respondent never shows how the work of these overlooked experts invalidates the arguments that were advanced by the critic."
  2. Totally agree. She makes it sound like it's a donation. THIS IS UND's MONEY - NOT HERS. “This significant figure marks our continued commitment to UND and the surrounding community,” Kris Engelstad McGarry, of the Engelstad Foundation, said in a statement. “This commitment has lasted for 60-plus years, stemming from my parents’ passion for UND and extending well in to our present-day efforts to support and enhance all that the university has to offer.”
  3. I'll take 4 tickets for the St. Paul Saints game on Friday. Where should I mail the money to?
  4. Ketteringham going 7-11 seems to be pretty decent, especially because it sounds like that was all on one drive? Thats 64%. 7 Sacks and 18 rushing yards in 9 carries is very scary.
  5. From UND football notes. Midco's show will debut Friday. Will cover the first two weeks and media day. And the D line is consistently putting pressure on our quarterbacks. https://fightinghawks.com/news/2018/8/14/football-fall-camp-notebook-vol-9.aspx
  6. If there is ever a new 2nd level that is officially formed, I think there is a good chance the 15k requirement gets dropped.

    Depth concerns. And teams have been known to beat better teams and lose to worse teams. Besides, we won't know for sure which of the two will be better until the end of the year!
  8. My gripe with Tom is this: Schlossman made a tweet that alluded to GFH changing their business model in a way that would be more in-line with the Star Tribune, which means that the GFH will likely become a paid service with a pay wall. Schlossman said that this would coincide with improved sports coverage. I tweeted to him that improved sports coverage would mean that the Herald gets a beat writer for college football, and Schlossman said that the Herald has one, in Tom Miller. I'll give Miller a pass if he is a columnist (which he is), but the Herald/Schlossman don't admit it. If they want to claim Miller is a beat writer, I think that the Herald should have the content to back that claim up. I think his articles are great for a columnist, but I'm not going to be paying a subscription to the Herald for the information that they are currently publishing. I also don't think he should get a pass for having a lack content (for being a columnist) when the Herald claims he's a beat writer. He's supposedly at every practice, and there was an article after the first two practices with his takeaways - what happened to the rest? Sorry about the rant. I'll stop.
  9. For the record, and anyone's reading pleasure, August football articles from Tom. After major injuries in 2017, UND’s starting inside linebackers are back to plug the middle SAT, AUG 11, 2018 - 2:10PM UND's Warren Taylor is a YouTube-taught punter, never played football before and can now boom 50 yarders WED, AUG 08, 2018 - 2:13PM UND hopes a healthy defense means better results in 2018 TUE, AUG 07, 2018 - 7:41AM UND star Deion Harris says he's playing at high level following last year's injury MON, AUG 06, 2018 - 5:15PM UND football program keeping new redshirt rule in mind SAT, AUG 04, 2018 - 8:31PM UND quarterback competition remains a three-man race FRI, AUG 03, 2018 - 7:48PM Herald's takeaways from UND football Practice No. 2 FRI, AUG 03, 2018 - 7:48PM The Herald's takeaways from the first day of UND football practice THU, AUG 02, 2018 - 2:43PM The Miami Hurricanes had the Turnover Chain and now UND has the Turnover Dunk THU, AUG 02, 2018 - 2:09PM

    The closer we get to this season, the more optimistic I have become. Official prediction: 8 - 3 Mississippi Valley State - W Washington - L Sam Houston - W Idaho State - W Northern Colorado - W Montana - W Sacramento - W Weber - W Idaho - L Portland State - W Northern Arizona - L
  12. I really don't get what Tom Miller does every day. He writes very short, surface-level, articles. The Herald would be better off by hiring a few interns that have some fire in their belly. If anyone ever asks him questions on Twitter or anywhere else, his answer is almost always "I haven't had a chance to look into that yet".
  13. Nor would the coaches want them to.
  14. It was a simple sentence. You, changing the words, changes the meaning of the sentence. Do not quote me with words I didn't say. THIS.
  15. Don't put words in my mouth.
  16. I don't really think it's UND's job to be the media. Replace undsports.com with grand forks herald. Especially because we just lost our football sid.
  17. The money spent on a new logo doesnt even cover travel expenses for one season. Let alone being enough money to save the program. And I'm sorry, but it's necessary to have a logo for an athletic department.
  18. Makes sense I guess. Hes young and Santiago and Brady are Seniors. Maybe he can't catch well enough to keep him at wr.
  19. schedule click here
  20. Looks like the soccer schedule is out and all the games are scheduled for East Grand Forks HS. Guessing this is so they can continue to work on the playing surface near the Ralph?
  21. They could stream the games on youtube or und insider. Both would probably work better. Side note - wish midco would get into the streaming business for out of staters.
  22. Wow... that's a brutal schedule right there. The single non conf D1 home game is at 11:30 AM.

    I saw or heard an interview with Rudy or Bubba that they were going to have all three running backs on the field at once. Anyone else catch that?
