They could offer more seats per member in Sioux Falls.

Hopefully you get tickets

Watch it sell out like Fargo does with Champions Club members.

Providence should just host the regional there instead of Brown, if you can't make the NCAAs then why should that school get money from hosting the regional. Regional host should be schools that have made the NCAA tournament in, at least, the last 20 years. I'd like to see the other schools in Minnesota host the regional at the X then it always being Minnesota.

Final Fours are always going to played in NFL stadiums. US Bank Stafium is getting a Final Four.

I think Jaillet is waiting for an offer from Edmonton or Calgary.

If it's for basketball, it being an NBA arena has a lot to do with it.

Brown shouldn't be able to host in Providence, Providence should be hosting there is what I was getting at (Yes, I know Brown is in Providence). I rather have a team host a regional in their building if that means there will be a crowd. These empty regionals are not good for the sport.

There needs to be a rule for hosting regionals, if a team hasn't been in the NCAAs since 1990 they cannot host a regional. If a regional doesn't have an average attendance for the weekend of 10,000 to 15,000 (scanned tickets). Then that site shouldn't be able to host a regional again.

As long as UND keeps bidding Fargo and Sioux Falls they will get regionals.

Didn't put in for a regional, NCAA night still think it's Omaha's home arena, so no regional.

Only Fargo, Sioux Falls and Allentown bid for the West and Midwest.

That was the Frozen Four bid Nebraska put in.

That's why I said Brad made it sound that way.

Maybe, there are things I'd like UND to have to make the fan experience better and get recruits (the on-ice projection system, the same system for basketball and football). There are sports I'd like UND to have (lacrosse), but there will be an outcry for cut sports to be added first. If he was willing to write a check to UND to fund the team and what else goes with it for title IX, why wouldn't they take the offer. Chipman could be someone who could help finish the HPC.

I find it hard to believe that UND would turn down someone willing to give them $60 million like Brad said or made it seem that Chipman was going to do for the women's team.

So Nashville had a goal that should have been disallowed.

I thought it was going to be about Mankato cutting women's hockey, not Kolstad transferring there.

Nashville's playoff survival kit is pure gold.

Nash should have known better then to throw a punch.

They lose 9, Hawkins.

That has to be put in it's own separate grouping then with football, basketball, baseball, hockey, etc.

Baseball use to be Americas "past time." It has it's popular areas in the US, but it has taken a hit in popularity over the years. When teams are bad, and there seems to be way more bad teams then good teams, no one cares about those teams. Brewers were getting all the hype when Braun was using PEDs now you don't here much about them, Pittsburgh was a joke until the last two years. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, yet it is the 5th most popular in the US.

I'd say it's passed baseball, then again what would be in the top four? Football, basketball, hockey, baseball (hockey and baseball could be interchanged), soccer (only during the World Cup for men's and women's and women's during the Olympics). That's pretty much it.

The future USA hockey players was a good one. UND only wants Euro Olympians. On a side note, I don't see Shelby making the Olympic team. They will take the World Championship goalies or Vetter some how will make the team.
