In his official response to questions regarding Title IX issues at Iowa, Gene Taylor replied: "Now that this news has been made public, haven't we suffered enough?"

Has anyone ever asked Jones why the basketball team was reluctant to go with all the other programs and wear Adidas?

Yes, excellent point. The offense comes to a standstill when he gets it down low. He has such an advantage being so tall to be able to throw it back out over the sagging perimeter defenders if he would just keep the ball up and look around.

Feeling fortunate I look good in, well, everything. #blessed

that sucks, the Weber game was disastrous too. He doesn't have the strength yet to be effective. It's not a problem that more experience/playing time is going to solve. He picks up what appear to be cheap fouls because he doesn't have body control which results in his arms flailing around like one of those giant advertising inflatables. All that said, he can still play a role on this team in certain situations. I think he gets too amped up and the result is early fouls. Let him sit and watch the flow of the game for awhile and perhaps calm down a bit, and then come in for Avants.

I missed the game last night so can't comment on it. But, given Shanks performance and limited minutes, I wonder if Jones will consider having Avants start. On the one hand it's nice to have a scorer come in fresh as the sixth man, but on the other hand, oftentimes Avants comes in two minutes in to the game or half, and is expected to play 10 + minutes straight, gets a breather, and then finishes the half or game. It would be nice to see Shanks come in twice in relief of Avants to spread out Avants minutes better.

There's clearly some roughrider butthurt still out there, but you're definitely taking the healthiest approach, as are the majority.

Well......some of us saw it as the lesser of two evils. For those worried the new hawk logo will be all cartoony and corny and sissified, can you imagine what kind of a gayed up cartoon cowboy riding a happy go lucky horsey we would've gotten with Roughriders?

yes they're all pretty good, but I think that first one is the best. I believe it was first aired during the superbowl many years ago.

this situation regarding a self centered player reminded me of this old commercial. love the ending. http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=leon+ain%27t+no+we+commercial&&view=detail&mid=5BF92FA258059C3E86F35BF92FA258059C3E86F3&rvsmid=5BF92FA258059C3E86F35BF92FA258059C3E86F3&FORM=VDMCNL&fsscr=0

wow, what an idiot. maybe they should halt the presidential search as well because that costs money. if he can't figure out the money spent on the logo is an investment, I wouldn't feel comfortable with him flying a plane.

Great game last night. I liked how even when up 20ish the effort was still there defensively. ISU may have the weakest post game in the league. Weber, possibly the best. As always against Weber, a big game. Hoping for a very cordial, affable, congenial Brian Jones in the handshake line tomorrow night.

I heard he earned some extra miles for flying a sacred cow back with him. (Of course, he made the cow fly coach)

So if the interviews wrap up today, does that mean swimsuit and talent competitions tomorrow and Thursday, followed by Steve Harvey announcing the winner on Friday?

The lovefest for Wentz should have its own thread. Maybe call it Woods for Wentz.

You heard it here first folks; there's a 75% chance Carson Wentz will be playing in the Super Bowl.

If/when UND comes out with a plan for FCOA, they will most likely explain what the plan is, and will detail what it is for. NDSU's drastic hike demand 2 years into a 5 year plan regarding student fees, and no reasonable explanation other than....um....we need more money...for like.... things, and stuff......(even though we all know it has to do with FCOA), is why this issue has entertainment value for many of us.

I hate to keep ripping on him, but the flow of the offense is ten times better when Shanks is on the bench. things grind to a halt when he's clogging up the middle. he can be a valuable situational guy off the bench, but to expect major minutes from him just doesn't seem wise at this point.

exactly, it just doesn't work. and as you or someone else mentioned, you don't get those bail out type body contact calls at the end of a game. the guys seemed tired at the end. the bench was shortened a little in the second half.

the play is stand around, wait until we almost run out of time, and then drive and shoot, or drive and dish. I would prefer to at least one time keep running the motion offense instead.

right. Drick had no problem getting good looks. keep running the motion offense and get it to him would've been a good option.

I can't remember the last time UND ran a play other than Crandall or Hooker go one on five and throw up a prayer at the end of a game or half.
