Where can we find info on the 2016 recruiting class?

Really?! I did not know that. The match-up with Idaho is probably the best-case scenario for advancing to the semi-finals. But, without Julia K, I don't see much hope to get past the next team. I wonder if the Big Sky will get an at-large bid this year? Very nice to see good conference competition.

What makes anyone think our own team could withstand a poor weather outdoor game? It's not like we play outside. With the new HPC, we don't even have to practice outside. What a weird topic to introduce to this thread.

Done.

I guess I wouldn't worry too much about the students being gone - it probably wouldn't make a whole lot of difference. there also is the possibility that people who ordinarily wouldn't go to the game might decide to go. Say you're visiting Grand Forks for Thanksgiving, or just use the long weekend as excuse to come to GF after your holiday celebration is over. If we got 9,000 for a playoff game, that should definitely make for a home field advantage.

From a comment on Dom Izzo's most recent bracketology: "How’s this for a dilemma – UNI vs. UND! How do you cheer against two teams at the same time?" That sounds like respect to me.

Depending on what site you visit, some have UND in with a win, while others have UND out despite winning. IF we get, and IF we get to host, and IF we play UNI, we'd have a men's basketball game and football game against UNI on the same day! Isn't it just fun to be able talk about this right now?!

Confirmed that it's true, or confirmed that we bid?

I think Julia K brings that power attack, but unfortunately her going down was the turning point of the year. Tied 1-1 at the intermission. UND looked decent in the first, but almost got their asses handed to them in the second.

it was on the video board. I think Darrin Looker did the voiceover.

they just plugged the football game, including mentioning keeping alive a playoff spot.

I'll say we preserve the 1,000 per game attendance. Last game for seniors should be enough to keep us there. Unfortunately, this team under performed, and I think interest waned a little.

Other people with Eversport issues?

Count me in the bunch that will miss it. Even if the VB team sweeps, I doubt I could make there in time. I'll be there to make noise when it counts, though.

Pretty sure he was kidding, but also putting a glimmer of hope that we will a) make the playoffs, and b) get to host the first round game.

I will be at both volleyball and football tomorrow, just like I was two weeks ago. It sounds like the senior recognition for volleyball is after the game. When is football's?

Nice game by the ladies tonight. Blocking was improved. I thought Courtney Place really put her team on her shoulders at the end of set 3. She and Faith Dooley had some nice spikes tonight.

Amelia Johnson was honorable mention, which is how I found the list in the first place.

While looking at a 2014 Minnesota HS first-team volleyball list of players, I came across Jaila's name and decided to search for her. She's playing with Virginia Tech, and hitting .256 as a freshman. Too bad we didn't get her here! Courtney Place is also on that list. Glad we got her here!

Thanks for the info. Looks like a good get. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaJCE6BW9es

If anything, I would think that attendance would be higher. The Saturday basketball games in winter that coincide with a men's hockey series usually have good attendance. The best marketing for the football game would be done at the Friday night hockey game.

We are in the middle of NLI signing week. Anybody know anything about VB recruits committing to UND?

Gippers is still a better choice than Fighting Hawks. At least it's unique.

ugh, that thing is ugly. I actually have seen that before, but I couldn't believe it was responsible for garnering votes. What is wrong with people?!

Could someone post a picture of the logo that is supposed to be so persuasive? I have not seen it.
