Race baiting trolls,crap starters and white guilt dimwits never bother to let the facts get in the way of their narritive

Senior ...did nothing as a PWO at liberty...UND a little thin perhaps at the guard spot could use a live body who is in early 20s

looks like Pekas is a walk on this year 6'4" combo guard...

Devon Pekas....doubt if he is a player...maybe a volunteer helper....North Native James Richman no longer on roster

plus USD number 2 coach worked under Jones for a while...another reason that the games should have been done

actually women teams get paid less then mens teams...smaller handle less pay....still good to get the games. Idaho st. mens team getting 85K to play at Wisc. UND would need to sell out at over 25 bucks a head to gross 85k.. What does UND offer D1teams ...10k? to play at Betty. They probably pay the little sisters of the poor caliber teams 5k to play. Surprised UND mens team did not get more D1 road/money games on the schedule this year.... Should have been able to get a home and home with South Dakota which is playing 4 OOC games vs Big Sky Teams

Montana St. has 5 home non conference games vs D1 teams..

UND hoops is a way far away distant 2nd place for sports dollars and interest in GF...South Dakota St puts their winter sports mula into hoops... 6500 seat arena....way more capacity for revenue, they pay their coaches way more. SDSU hoops is the big show there like Hockey is in GF. and they got the MOJO going with Nate Wolters and have kept it up.

team makes more $$$ on the road vs mid to high major team vs a non D1 team at home.....lame schedule 1st 3 games against stiffs

DEC 31 is quite obviously completely meaningless.. amazing that somebody would actually think the basketball season ends on Dec 31

or the staff is extremely good at at player evaluation and is able to spot potential that no other D1 coaches see

that should wrap up this class for UND...last 3 high schools recruits signed had no competing D1 offers...With FCOA incentive was hoping to see an upgrade here.

times change UND is a hockey school period!...never said awful...every big sky school has fans who think they have potential to be great... UND fans should count their blessings they have a nice Big Sky Hoops program and this year is UND best chance ever for a NCAA bid ...To compete with Weber and Montana year in and year out they need to bring in more stud recruits to Grand Forks ...easier said than done

Cashman no longer listed as beingb on team

The betty holds about 3100 kinda limits handle to bring D1 teams who could get a fat paycheck playing somewhere else or at their own court

what part of winter sports budget did u not understand.....NDSU hoops Is the top dog by far for winter sports budget

people forget that UND has a hockey team that happens to dominate the Grand Forks area fan sports winter budget....NDSU basketball is the top sports show by far in fargo....You could have coach K here and hoops would still be secon fiddle to hockey....amen

Summit leagues a step up from big sky more revenue ,better rpi....able to pay more to play. that is the facts...feel free to let the facts get in the way of your narrative

You are 100% correct ...some folks are unable to understand the inner workings of running a lower level D1 hoops program. It is about money! the vast majority of lower D1 programs use finance based scheduling...UND likely netted more money playing at Wisky last season than they did for any home game. The usual culprit comes in here and trolls about something he has less than one iota of knowledge about...

UND has one scholarship open for 17/18 season they have like 24 offers out...Jones and his staff are on thin ice as evidenced by the fact none of them are under contract for the 2017/18 season , that kind of puts the kibosh on recruiting. That being said I find it odd that they continue to offer guards ( when they need to shore up front court) and are offering kid with zero competing D1 offers. Better to be picky with last offer rather than adding another long shot prospect

by March I was referring prior to their senior year beginning...also a new coach will have full aau open periods to recruit..this is when players and coaches get down to business. When you get kids with 0-2 other D1 offers junior year contacts are of modest...Moody does not know who is HC will be when he arrives...as Jones has no contract for 17-18

BSC schedule looks good...last season UND had the toughest BSC schedule.
