You are exactly right. Even the pitching coach can't take it anymore- I see he got arrested for suspicion of DWI.

Argh

that is so awesome you posted that; I was thinking of mentioning Minard and finding a pic, but I was posting from my phone so didn't want to bother. lol

having him lead off really worked out well. It's time to send the entire team to Rochester. Or Siberia.

Maybe if you guys didn't poke at his last 1000 posts, he wouldn't respond in kind? according to bresciani you have a couple buildings falling down on campus at FU. Maybe you can discuss that on bozoville instead of hanging out here?

Good for you; the first step is admitting you have an unhealthy fetish.

I think he was just talking about small endowments.....carry on.

Your constant monitoring of Sioux Sports is what's really amusing.

I'm impressed; it only took 4 days for you guys to figure out the math. Well done.

They'll jettison a few players who will probably turn into all stars somewhere else, blame injuries, and trade front office and management jobs between themselves. And then later wonder why they still suck. ~ The Twins way.

For some reason the name Conor O'Flaherty doesn't exude competence in my opinion. Yeah that's right; I'm a namist. Getting a little nervous SME is going to result in a lot of SMH.

I didn't have time to read this War and Peace entry, so hope I'm on the right track with my response- I was acknowledging it appears things are shaping up to a point where Sioux Volley was on the right track; so he didn't have every minute detail to a t- who cares.

Covenant clap for Sioux Volley. should start charging a user fee for every bison fan post on this site to help pay for FBS. Jim?

Congrats to Schobert I wish him the best. Being picked by Cleveland must feel almost like getting drafted by an NFL team.

LOL. Is that why you came on SIOUXSPORTS a few weeks ago to tell us Carson Wentz getting drafted is the biggest sporting accomplishment ever in the state of North Dakota?

If this isn't proof you bison turd burglars come to Sioux sports seeking approval and compliments, I don't know what is.

Thanks UNDBIZ and jdub27..... But i'm sure $13million is right around the corner. *****************

I agree expecting $13million in a few months is ridiculous. but then again I think the entire concept is ridiculous. From the article: ------------- According to a document provided at the meeting, UND baseball will need to hit its fundraising benchmark each season in order to maintain the program. For example, the team will need to raise $546,312 by Feb. 17, 2017 for the 2018 season. The document also states “establishing an endowment is the best solution for establishing the long term stability of the program.” ------------- I think it's fair to say you can read between the lines a couple different ways here. Either they get an endowment established in the near future, or they struggle to fully fund an endowment, and are scratching for funds every year for eternity. Does anyone know if there were significant donations made specific to baseball in past years? And if not, why does it seem likely to see a huge influx of baseball only donations now?

This is ridiculous. It should be an endowment established by fall, or it's dropped. Seeing if they can scrounge up enough money year by year would be an ongoing soap opera that could result in donations that would otherwise go to the core sports being spent on baseball.

How about instead of Standing Room Only, start selling Sitting Once Only, or, SOO seats. Stand up and cheer for a TD, that's great! But if you sit down again, well, that's another 5 bucks. Just brain storming; I think I'm on something here.

baseball? Mayville State has a Berry good baseball team...

Actually, what cannot be ignored is how butt hurt you are, having to share the championship spotlight with UND.

Yes, he could have done that. And then what? What does the "move on" part consist of? Did Brekke know as much as Faison knew at that time about the future of baseball? Let's say he did, then he has the same two options as Faison had; tell the young man with a rich dad that baseball is inevitably going to be cut. I'm not sure if that is the best way to basically break the news to the general public. Or option two, he looks them straight in the face, takes their money that is designated for baseball, (not just an "athletic dept." donation as others have added to their posts to cloud the issue here) and dumps baseball a year later. It was a unique situation. If Faison has ever ignored general athletic dept donation emails, or sport-specific donations that were designated for sports that were not inevitably going to be cut, i'd be outraged like others are.

No, I'm not Faison. Apparently very few here are willing to acknowledge what an extremely awkward situation this created for BF. i guess he would've been hailed a hero on siouxsports for taking their money and then dumping the baseball program a year later. When the actual person with the money never contacted him, and it appears there were no follow up emails or calls, as I stated earlier I can't come down too hard on BF
