More than Georges get in trouble or is he the only one??

How could anyone that doesn't even know what street ball refers to, make any sort of educated opinion on a guy's coaching ability

Defensively, they could have been WAY better. You're correct- they have rarely pulled off an upset. This year- a lot of close games, usually end up on the losing end. Why? Other teams value possession, time management, and play situational basketball. UND? From what I've seen, the last 2 minutes are mostly just business as usual regardless of score, with Foghorn Leghorn running around barefoot flapping his wings yelling I say, I say I think there should've been a foul called there.

It was nice to see a summary of the recruits over the years.... however..... regardless of who stayed, who played, and how well they played.... my contention is Jones does not develop whoever the players are, to their full potential. 2011-2014 being the prime example. Wins are gotten purely on athleticism and shooting well. There is no discipline. The players are not put in a position to succeed. As has been said a million times by gfhockey- these teams just play street ball. How many coaches around the country could not have led last years' team to a .500 overall record? How many coaches could not have mustered a 10th place finish in the Big Sky this year? I guess I just don't understand the passion to hang on to mediocrity, especially 9 years into this experiment.

Is he going on a sabbatical that we don't know about yet?

This team hasn't run an offense for 9 years. Out shooting your opponent is the only way you even have a chance to win playing this way. There's no communication on defense, either. Sac state runs actual plays with good ball movement- they had open shots all night. I've said it before and agree with it being brought up again here earlier today-- there's little to no improvement over the course of a career here. We saw evidence of that over the previous 4 years.

That layup out of the timeout is something you learn to defend in 7th grade.

I was surprised they performed topless. Too bad you guys missed it.

I agree. A year of getting stronger and quicker will make a huge difference for those long guys.

We need to either switch on screens or cut underneath the screener. Wide open threes....

Great play by Hooker....

They either get so deep on us, or are wide open on the 3 point line. Good ball movement, and poor defense. Our defense is so easy to break down, whether man to man or zone. Augh

That shot by cashman pretty much sums up the season.

The horny girlz dance team was pretty good. I think I'm pronouncing that correctly.

Why do we keep pressuring 40 ft from the basket..... It just frees them up for open 3's

I think a lot of you are being way too hard on Jones..... After all, there's no "I" in FUN!! If the kids have fun, that's all that matters.... 9 more years, please!

That basket is at about 9ft. max.

What's all this talk about Sundogs? I thought the plan was to honor cowboys from New Mexico by going with the name Roughriders? ****

Wrigley has basically just opened a can of worms. This paves the way for funding to be used anyway a school chooses, regardless of initial designation.

"projects dedicated to the advancement of enhanced academics, including...." How do you interpret this as having anything to do with athletics?

Fair enough, I just had to ask. I don't understand why you're wishing UND would've raised money for the grants designated towards athletic scholarships.... because the letter of the bill said it was designated for Academic funding. Are nerds benching 95lbs. and running a 6.7 40 getting academic scholarships to play football at Minot, Dickinson, and ndsu now? If so that's news to me.

Based on posts in the last 24 hours of wanting to quell any talk of improving the men's basketball teams coaching staff, and then wishing upon a star UND was in the better Summit and MVFC conferences, and now defending ndsu's clear misuse of funding intended for academics....I feel I gotta ask you, nodakhoops..... What color is your underwear?

https://screen.yahoo.com/southwestern-minn-high-school-mascot-001500241.html A hundred years from now, no teams will have nicknames. Once the humane society or some other animal rights group pipes up, look out. All names will be deemed offensive to someone by then. Just another reason to avoid the self inflicted torture of choosing a new name nobody is going to be happy with.

I'm hoping this guy isn't the UND athlete.
