    No question that Power 5 programs compared to FCS will have significantly more financial power to recruit players, but don’t for one second think that some FCS communities won’t put together sizable offers as well. Think Montana, Montana State, North Dakota State, South Dakota State, etc.

    it’s going to happen.

     

    UND also needs to be at the forefront. Sure, UND themselves can’t tackle name-image-likeness (NIL), but the fan base and the Grand Forks community needs to get onboard before they’re way behind the 8 ball. 

    I totally agree…some college towns have formed (?non-profits) to accept donations for NIL. They have been very successful….even accept donations at home games.

    Reading about colonoscopies is more enjoyable than reading about transfer outs, and I have had three of them.

    Great comparison! Actually be glad it works…you don’t want the alternative.  If they even teach new nurses enemas anymore.

    Exactly the type of player he is trying to weed out of the program.  One that wouldn't be willing to put in the work to take/keep that spot.  A player with the right attitude would work twice as hard to prive him wrong.

    My first thought was arrogant jerk. My second was, what player would give his all to excel after a statement like that. WOW.  How much money do you think he is making??? Hardly words to motivate players.

    Morning Mpls papers says Jack Liwienski of Minnetonka committed to North Dakota. He is a center and on the all metro state team he is the son of former Viking Chris Liwienski and has had “a lifetime of training.”
  5. I was walking on a treadmill yesterday and listening…so, when there was that questionable call in the first half, why did Bubba not request a review or call a time out? I just don’t understand. The radio announcers (love them) we’re clear it should have been reviewed. I am not criticizing but questioning.

    Sign him up...   can't be hard to paint the green to a prettier shade,  the piss yellow may not cover as easy...  but not like you are trying to make an 'SU gal learn how to use indoor plumbing.

    Could be another NIL opportunity for SU

    3 pm start? How can I watch on my phone, post on SS.com while driving up for hockey???

    You can plug the iPhone into the USB port and listen on the radio….but do NOT get so wrapped up in the game you forget you are driving….happened during the Sat. UND/Gopher OT. I almost had to pull over

  8. Ok…time for true confession absolutely NOT me…but my sister and her boyfriend streaked from the front door bar thru the back door of the eating area about March 1974. I was in the get away car with my boyfriend who drove….

    Here is what you do though............If someone says something positive about UND football.....you are right there to say...."yeah but" and then something negative.  Then if somebody says something negative, or could be construed as mildly negative........such as "just win".....you are also immediately there to say that is a losers mentality.  You sit here and split hairs on everything we say.....no matter what it is....good or bad and add some negative comment to it and act like if we all just had the same mentality as you it would solve all of the problems, it just gets old.   I know before I've changed something I was going to say before posting it.....because I knew you'd say something about how that is a losers mentality blah blah blah.   If we give praise to a coach, player or the program.....we know there will be a comment from you about it.....usually trying to beat that positive comment down in whatever fashion you can.  So if you want to talk about sad, sometime you may need to look in the mirror.  

    I'm pretty sure all of us are ok with some constructive criticism of the team from time to time because I don't think hardly any of us feel we are where we want or need to be at, and it has certainly taken a lot longer than most of us would hope.  The next 3-4 weeks will be telling, we will see how it goes.  You said yesterday your comment was low risk high reward, and that is what I said about your comments two weeks ago.  You can say a bunch of stuff like they won't be ready to play.......or that we have mostly D2 players, or we will go 6-5 after the SDSU loss......but if we win...... we don't care and just forget about it.  But if we lose.....you can sit there and say I told you so all week and/or off season.  So congrats, you've really positioned yourself perfectly on that because only 1 team in the FCS ends the year happy. 

    Ok end of rant and done with this topic for the rest of the year. 

    P.S. Great insight though on your comment that......"can always do better"....that never occurred to any of us before.  

    Very well said….he REALLY needs to drink several beers and go shoot a deer.

  10. IMHO, ST can make or break some games….scoring a TD no one expected, on side kicks, good or poor field position. Everyone contributes not just Ol snd DL. When STs perform like that everyone is excited! At least I am. It is like the frosting on the cake.
