  1. stealing this from philly sioux, as a point to second it. Tear down this thread!!
  2. i just graduated and i can tell you that i had more than my fair share of adult beverages.. just to calm everyone down, never once have i have seen anyone bonging alcohol through the wrong hole, taking eyeball shots, and I can't say for sure but i never saw tampons being passed around. So I don't think that kind of stuff really went down there...
  3. who does everyone have starting at qb this weekend?
  4. Our defense was playing in a different league of this year's version though too... I don't know if its the absence of the Minot Missile or what, but the bend but don't break mentality is pretty scary to do consistently.
  5. Faison is suspending NDSU's football players
  6. thanks for the info, so yah just a minor... i don't think mr. beck should be included in this bunch
  7. for the record I don't think a minor is even in the same breathe as election fraud.. minors will happen to every program, i bet he doesn't get convicted of resisting. it's just terrible timing for Travis as normally a minor would barely get covered.
  8. if people really need to compare the two schools on this, look no further back than the past few years. Ryan Chappell was the best offense player UND had at the time (or most talented), and he was especially needed when he got dismissed (suspended by NCAA rules, but not allowed back). Bobby Stroup, much more serious, was dealt with appropriately. When the freshman linebacker beat up a kid in the dorms in 08 (I believe), he was sent out of town. Ismael Bamba was not allowed to stay on the team with his personal shortcomings. Josh Murray was also dismissed by Mussman. I have been critical of Mussman in the past, but in terms of dealing with trouble, Mussman has acted with the utmost appropriate actions. The names listed here are also evidence to not having favor towards star players. I'm not saying Craig Bohl is doing this, but it seems that NDSU people on here are saying UND would show that bias, so I'm just answering questions.
  9. I don't see a lot of UND hockey players signing up to circulate petitions and last winter would have been an opportune time to do so. You can't disregard their legal responsibility and the grave issue of the matter. These aren't six year olds making million dollar agreements, these are people the same age as I making decisions. To say "As if most hockey players would know not to fake signatures" is outrageous too. Who in their right mind who knows what a petition is would think that's OK to write fraudulent names on a legal document??? And if you are right and that is so tough to understand, then maybe they shouldn't have signed up to be legally responsible to look out for that stuff.
  10. thoroughly enjoyable description
  11. this attitude scares me... greater enrollment doesn't equate to greater university. I don't think that higher enrollment should be a goal, rather a byproduct of an increasingly better educational service. I worry enrollment numbers are too big of focus.
  12. I really think this is a good idea, at least a place to start off from. Admission standards should be higher, and i think that the percentage of people who don't finish school, but start, is evident of that (I realize there are lots of other factors involved). He seems to understand we need to remove some unnecessary components of higher ed and the remedial class aspect shows that. Understand this probably a bargaining chip and will be watered down a bit.
  13. Mayville would have to schedule it around the Farmer's Bowl
  14. does anyone have a link to the nickname settlement
  15. this is why we should go on without a name. this isn't an issue then. forever honor the name by leaving its absence. everyone whose a fan pretty much has thirty years worth of Sioux gear to wear anyways. let's go without a name officially and remain the Sioux in fan practice
  16. i don't want to be like SU, i'm pretty sure their football warmup is just an ac/dc cd
  17. Sail would be a cool Saturday night song next year... real cool when basketball team used it for intro against SU
  18. no new nickname, just be North Dakota and use the interlocking ND forever; almost forces people to refer to us as the team that used to be Sioux
  19. according to twitter (guy for works for brookings newspaper) SDSU's SID says they have taken no official stance
