Sioux>Bison

Luckily they have some of the worst teams coming up. Not looking sharp in this Olympics but they also didn’t in South Korea until they went on a roll and won out. They still control their own destiny so hopefully they play desperate.

Jake playing like he’s still at UND against college level players. Jumping up into plays trying to make it happen. Who knew he would be able to do this at this level, but then again he could have easily been playing in the NHL this year.

Worked with one of the guys. All pretty ordinary dudes that happened to have curled most of their lives and are now at the top of the sport.

Yeah and one of those refs is the head honcho now. Honestly I’ll take beer league refs at this point .

Yup gotta be a major! Seriously all these NCHC refs need to be fired and start new

Dumbest review ever?!?!?! of course it’s the NCHC officiating ………

Calling what? BB, football, hockey? Honestly he can do all of it well

Where is Alex heinart?

Any chance UND gets placed in Loveland? Would love a short drive for some Sioux hockey! does UND make it there as the #4 NCHC team? Do they need to be a bottom pairwise team and Denver to win the NCHC?

UND would be a completely different team if it wasn’t for the new transfer portal rules….

So who do we get to steal from? It’s not like the Summit is the best conference in BB and is one of the worst. What conferences have less appeal than the Summit? I guess we could steal from D2 oh wait you all think that’s the level of talent we have now…….. Every player dreams of playing D1 ball in Grand Forks…….ok

Hard to keep talent around when there are bigger and better schools than want to give you a shot in a better conference….

Good luck with BB in a conference at the bottom of D1…..

The new transfer rule has really screwed Sather. If his top talent wouldn’t have left this team would be very good. How does he replace that top talent . It’s not like Grand Forks is a top destination school.

We would have two successful sports if we wouldn’t have cut Womens Hockey. The definitely would have been winning championships by now if they would have been cut short. All the lost future olympians too….. shame

Bring back Brad Davidson! I remember our bruiser 4th lines from back in the day.

I thought this team would be the bright spot this year for UND except hey decided to join the football and mens basketball teams at the bottom………. At least it is good to see the Womens BBall team tearing it up! These captains need to whip up their team too. Need some vocal leaders in the locker room

Yeah if we want to maximize our return on higher salaries we should be investing in Basketball…….. Is UND the average when it comes to salaries? If so I wouldn’t say under paying

Too much money and the G5 don’t even belong in the same sentence. The G5 would be guaranteed one stop in a 12 team playoff. Two could get in but we will see 1 team from the G5 most years.

Need to split this series at a minimum. If they want to get back on track and silence the critics they need to sweep them. Play like it’s the playoffs, can’t afford to slide anymore

Can they play that style of football every week in the FBS and be successful? Honest question I don’t know of any past FBS teams that play like the Bison…..

And even with the Bison having a down year they still only lost one game and won the title. Talk about a down year!!!! The Bison were a completely different team in the first and second half of the season. They actually got back to Bison form just in time for the playoffs. Wasn’t any doubt from me what was going to happen this post season. It’s like Minot High stomping all of the little class A division schools. Not a contest.

Yeah recruiting elite talent to Fargo is going to be easy……. NDSU already has G5 level facilities but are they going to be enough to beat out P5 facilities and programs? Some of the local talent will still cut it at a G5 NDSU but they will have to rely on out of the region talent to fill their roster especially if they want elite P5 talent.

A G5 NDSU is going to be able to keep those recruits that they lost to Minnesota and Wisconsin compared to the FCS NDSU? More scholarships will give you more depth but having more of them isn’t going to automatically going to help you recruit elite P5 talent.

Yeah those egos are not getting any smaller…….. NDSU has proven they can recruit G5 talent but recruiting P5 talent is unproven. How will NDSU win recruiting battles against Minnesota and Wisconsin once they are FBS?
