Didn't know that.. wow. Don't look at Kentucky's record! Omaha in the bonus already.

Omaha down 2 going into the half at Kansas State.

They might as well. Boise sounds like a cancer. Montana has its own issues though with financing and school attendance. Montana State as a university is dominating them and Montana isn't in the best shape right now to make the move. UM could prob manage it but it wouldnt look good politically.

My god do we look bad! Protect the ball! Why are we playing so fast when nobody can handle the ball? Maybe I'm spoiled by Crandall and Stewart, but this team badly needs a legit point guard.

You mention DAE - is he playing for sure? Drake message board - https://www.drakenation.com/146037/North-Dakota-at-Drake-1222

Yeah, but this way allows them to avoid confrontation! Kind of like being passive aggressive, or talking about someone behind their back while being nice to their face. That said, there is message board speculation that the Texas schools want Chicago State gone as one of their conditions of moving to the WAC... The Summit wouldn't take them in, right?

The Texas fans are saying the Louisiana schools have terrible funding for their athletics programs and are a basketball anchor. Southland is at the bottom of the barrel in basketball. I think they just want to be with programs that have better financial support for the most part, and the WAC provides a higher ceiling.

Thanks! You guys are doing amazing work, and the podcast is better than most local radio shows. My question: How are different schools within the league handling attendance for league games? I believe UND and NDSU will be allowing 1k fans per game. Is that the same for all other summit schools, and does the Summit have any attendance rules? If some schools have fans and some do not, does fan attendance even matter enough to affect win/loss records?

Would greatly prefer FCS playoffs if I'm them. If that is the ceiling with an undefeated team, FBS is pointless until the playoff field is expanded.

Maybe, but I have my doubts... I think last year EWU was supposed to play here and instead we played an away game at EWU, so to get back to even we would need two games from them or another big sky school, since we were owed the return end of one of our Big Sky challenge games, and the game @ EWU should be treated as a seperate home and home, if we're keeping score, because you would think that Big Sky games would be home and homes. We also are owed a return game from the WAC challenge, as well, as I believe Seattle bailed on us last year. In my book, we are owed at least 3 home D1 games with no return from us. I really doubt that happens over the next couple years. Hope I'm wrong.

Wow! Already up to $8,030

Done

Also, despite the existence of UND hockey and football, UND absolutely has enough money to bring a couple D1 teams in for non conference games each year. Our home schedule has been embarrassing and it's unacceptable how bad it has been. That's on our AD.

I still think Sather can improve the program. He hasn't been here long. No amount of coaching can help a team that can't hit open shots. UND's issue has been a lack a scoring for large chunks of time in so many games this year. It cost us the game vs NDSU and was an issue vs SIU as well. UND needs guys that can hit open shots, and they need a point guard that can handle the ball and drive without bouncing the ball off of his legs/feet.

Will be on this as soon as I find my wallet.....

Duh.... seating chart is below. This is prob old news but whatever... pic below

They ever show a finished picture for the turf? Also I just noticed that it looks like they also moved the away section to the end and upper corner. It used to be at the bottom of 217, right on the goal line I believe. This made seating in section 216 and 217 much less desirable when the away section was right there on the goal line. The below pictures are from the season ticket selection page, and you can see the greyed out section that is unavailable.

Disappointing results so far, but Sims is turning into one of my favorite players. Fun to watch him out there.

REALLLY hope it looks more like this than this

I agree. I deleted most of my post because I don't want to drift the thread off topic, but It is def a dilemma because we want Grand Forks to grow and compete with Fargo and other cities, at the same time, we obviously need tax revenue, and IMO tax incentives unfairly disadvantage small contractors, as larger companies typically benefit. In this situation I think it makes sense though, since UND, a public entity, is a major stakeholder.

I am looking for a new computer monitor for work, but I will also be using it to stream live sports. Many of the larger monitors now come with curved screens... have any of you watched games on this type of monitor or tv? Curious if it is a good or bad feature to have? I would be sitting at my desk while watching, so I'd be fairly close to the monitor. Also, high refresh rates and response times are obviously important, but at what point do better stats here not make a difference? How fast are sources from ESPN3/+ and NCHC.TV in terms of refresh rate and response time, for example? I am currently looking at these two monitors here, but maybe something cheaper would work out just as well? Any input would be appreciated.

Is the idea of a new arena at UAH completely dead now?

Of course they get gifted a possession. Jesus.
