There isn't a coach in the nation that isn't trying to build depth at every position. The problem is Bubba has to recruit players to the locker rooms at Memorial Stadium, and there are more attractive schools to football recruits in the region. It's not that easy, especially when guys like Elijah, Harris, and Kuksa leave or get hurt. I think the constant bashing of UND-FB-FAN is counterproductive - the criticisms of him are more annoying than his negativity, imo, despite the popularity of the posts that bash him. This website would be boring without differing views - that's what makes a good conversation. Do we want this place to be an echo chamber? It's not like he's presenting opinion as fact, or throwing out crazy conspiracy theories while bashing all those who disagree with him like some other members on this website.

How much did they raise for the high performance center again? That doesn't happen without football.

This is why you get so much grief. HE DID NOT SAY THAT!!!! He did not say the conversation was "NEEDED". In response to a question about going D1, he said that its a great conversation to have with everybody. Huge difference. Stop putting words in peoples mouth and bending the truth.

Surprised you two don't debate each other more often...

Are the same people who want to get rid of Berry the same ones who wanted Hack gone, despite consistently making the NCAA tournament and Frozen Four?

As far as mascots go, the dopier the better, imo. People who are offended by mascots need to pull the stick out of their ass.

I think Tom Miller's article is mostly good news. Really hope to see Austin Gordon make the field and see what he can do.

What. If?

Random strangers being invited in to public high schools will not get very much support right now. I'm all for the mall library idea if a new library gets built. Lease the space. No new building. This is in the same ball park as public funds for stadiums imo. Nobody is using libraries for education anymore. Its a free WiFi location to look at Facebook or get on a computer. Open a downtown computer only "library", and maintain the current libraray.

Which ones?

Can't find the game on watchbigsky. UND schedule links to UND Insider. Did I miss something?

I guess this is +1 for Bill Chaves.

Holy cow... didn't know that.

You sure about that? Aren't both sidelines cement, and they keep the basketball bleachers in the end zone? Maybe I am misreading your post.

Does Austin Gordon return to Running Back after this season?

Do you know who attended? What the topics were?

Providence should be lower. Their last natty was bs, considering they were the 16th seed and got placed in the providence regional for attendance reasons, when they weren't even the host, and it wasn't due to bracket integrity.

Anything besides him choosing to retire is speculation. My guess is Kennedy talked to him and it was a mutual decision. It wasnt really anything he did "wrong". Just more of time for new blood type of thing. New preseident, new conference, faison was old, is time for a new era.

Can you read?

Source, please.

I'm not out protesting. Just stating my opinion.

Totally agree with this. The Fritz really is a great building that serves it's purpose. Why tear it down when it is the only theatre of any significant size in Grand Forks? Replacement would cost 25 million plus! If this building only needs $13.3 million over the next decade, and it's as old as it is, I think it's a no brainer to keep it. Even if they build a smaller building near the Hughs Fine Arts Center, it's easily going to cost more than that, and it will be worse than the current building. Construction costs are doing nothing but going up. This was just built in Minnesota and it cost ten million.. only seats 250. photo album

Speaking of pregame bars, anyone know what happened with this? (Fighting Soo bar) http://www.inforum.com/business/4145383-update-man-looks-open-fighting-soo-restaurant-st-paul
