    It's never been about being right or wrong.  It's about holding UND to the standard that it should be held to in the college hockey world.  Just look at what Brad inherited and look what we've accomplished since.  I can appreciate some NCHC titles, but I just don't those matter a ton.  I'm not even expecting titles...too much puck luck in one-and-done format tourneys.  What I want to see is having top-tier talent excited to play for our program.  I want the national pundits to rave about UND like they used to.  I want the fanbase to be excited out of their minds for two weeks with another pending trip to the Frozen Four even if it ends in tears.  The Penrose is a slow burn that no one thinks about until you have the trophy.

    Hak also constantly lost elite talent to the NHL every year! Who has Berry lost early in comparison? Berry has his pick off the portal every year and still can’t win a tournament game!

    And the Goon Twitter post was just posted. I was waiting for that :) In all seriousness I am not in the axe berry camp…because I’m not sure who they’d even replace him with (and he seems like an awesome guy). But can completely understand why someone would want to assess the situation. Some of the kool aid drinkers are hilarious. 

    Player parents need to stay off social media!

    Deep down I think we all knew this was going to be the end result after watching the last month or so. The sweep at home by CC, followed by the sweep at CC and then Omaha and the loss at the Frozen Faceoff, again to Omaha, were all pretty bad signs that we were trending in the wrong direction. It upsets me that this now seems like the norm with BB. I I hope he along with the rest of the coaching staff have some real difficult conversations b

    I’m normally really nervous leading up to and during the games. Didn’t have that feeling at all tonight. I didn’t think we would for sure win so wasn’t going to get worked up with high expectations. Sad that I didn’t have those expectations for this super talented team. Knew there was hope we could pull it off after getting down 2 goal all the way until those last seconds clicked off. Sad day I don’t expect us to make any deep runs anymore……..

    Yep. Although UND football would sure love to even just be ranked the #1 team in the country at some point during the season. Football team hasn't even sniffed that in two decades. 

    Being ranked #1 doesn’t mean squat when you are nowhere near #1 at the end of the season!

    If you are on the ledge with the bubba extension feel free to wander over to the hockey playoff thread.. most overfunded  program in college hockey.. still can’t get out of the first round. 

    Who knew we should be happy with what Bubba has done! Good enough for hockey so good enough for football!

    Here's your chance to be a hero. Just a nickel on the dollar from your big oil field checks and the problem is solved.

    How does he get big oil field checks while living in GF? Sign me up for one of those jobs!

    They look disinterested in these settings.  Frozen Faceoff, destination games and regionals.

    Too much pressure from the fanbase on Facebook, Twitter, and SS……. People on those sites just don’t understand!

    Dumping your season tickets or not going to games only hurts the programs.  Less $ will make things worse.

    the players need support and you won’t get players without $

     

    Bubbas coaching is hurting this program! He has done nothing to fix this defense in the offseason. I’m afraid to say this defense could be worse this fall than last year

    Is the fighting sioux Facebook group still full of sycophants towards a player's mother? Felt sorry for her that she pursued adulation in a manner so embarassing for her son. With no account of my own my knowledge of it stemmed from here, which could have been exaggerated.

    Yup is so creepy, players and their parents need to steer clear of those stalkers! Someone get them some suite tickets asap!

    What's going on with 'hockey only'?  Are you referring to the fans?  The people on Siouxsports?  The Ledgies?

     

    What going on with only 7 pages of gameday thread? Where did all the hockey fans go?

    Thanks...I wasn't sure why as fans we needed to be exclusive to supporting either football or hockey.

    There are way more hockey only fans than football only fans. I just wonder why the football forum is more active than the hockey one on a game day. I’m a fan of both. Been to multiple times more hockey games than football this last decade. Also both teams have deserved high scrutiny the last few years too.

     Good question. Being dominated this wknd by a team fighting for NCAA tourney life. Are we sorta like the Sioux football team? Home warriors but road cupcakes. We got our ass swept at CC and now happening again at Omaha, both good/decent teams for sure but not top 5 ranked.   

    Or the UND football team of the D2 days? Denominate the regular season then choke in the playoffs…..

    At this point I don't think it really matters where the Sioux end up playing.  If the team that stomped DU shows up, I like our chances.  If we see the guys that were just down in Omaha, it's gonna be a rough road getting out of any regional.  I realize that Omaha probably had more to play for, but we put up three goals the entire weekend?  BC and BU aren't taking any weekends off.

    Brad Berry won us the Penrose , he is allowed to take some weekends off, we should all be happy with only winning the Penrose………

    @Yote 53, that makes sense but the Montanas lose their CA exposure for recruiting. That's a non-starter. 

    Montanas are not playing in a Midwest conference, they would accept a MWC invite but not something in the dakotas
