  1. Both games this weekend were tough to watch from an offensive standpoint. It was made clear we have to find other scoring options minus Rebraca. There was way too much dribbling around the perimeter and not enough penetration. Ihenacho needs to look to score more than he does. He's very athletics and young, i get it, but he needs to start trying to get to the basket more. Free throw shooting definitely needs to be addressed as well.

    He can't be as bad as Webb or Seales (from 3, not midrange) could he?

     

    Tough to tell as all I saw of him was in warmups which don't say much. Gametime conditions are when making buckets matters.

  3. Brew NEEDS to go! He quits coaching any time the team starts to slide. He never changes up his defensive scheme during a game. A little zone against USD would have at least showed he was trying to be competitive. Has anyone noticed how he consistently takes out the hot handed player when they are on a roll? Borowicz was on fire against SDSU and he subbed her out. He does it all the time. Makes no sense. I don't think he knows what he's doing out there. I believe he still has one more year on his contract. Anyone think Chaves would buy him out of his contract next year?

    Example. In the final minutes. Shahid goes by Rebraca for a layup. Rebraca bumps him and no call. Next possession or two, Stewart goes in for a layup, less contact, (Actually really no contact)  from Krueser, they call a foul. But this game doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Win or lose tonight for NDSU, basically whoever wins the game Thursday in Fargo between NDSU and SDSU gets the number 1 seed and the loser gets the #2 seed. 

    You must need glasses because Krueser got him with all of his body on that play :cool:

  5. I think Sather has won this team a few games this season with his coaching philosophy and play calling. Their team play and free throw shooting has obviously improved. Defense has also improved, but we don't have the talent to defend some of the better caliber players in the league. As for Moody, he was always a liability defensively and I heard he is looking to enter the transfer portal. I also heard there is some unrest within the team with some of the players not too happy with Sather. My guess is some of the players that were playing under Jones aren't happy with the increased structure and discipline that Sather has brought to the team. In my eyes, good riddance if that's the case. This team lacked structure and discipline under Jones' watch and you could tell.

  6. It is amazing you can tell the intent of a player from a video board replay.  

    In reality you can't. 

    You're argument is the same as me saying I saw UND defenders punching our O-Linemen in the groin on the ground after the whistle was blown (that is as dirty as it gets).

     Finally, someone tell Cole Reyes to take his hat off during the post game presser.  That is low-class sore loser action.

    Cole wears his hat like that all the time. Not a classless move like you're  implying. 

  7. I don't understand why North Stars is so much more popular than Sundogs. One's a ball of gas billions of miles away and the other is the reflection of light against ice. Neither one seems very inspiring or intimidating to me.

    I can't think of a reason someone would like North Stars as a nickname other than they liked the Minnesota North Stars or they just think it sounds cool. If they think it sounds cool, then say North Dakota North Stars out loud 10 times. You'll never want to hear the word north again.

    There's so much more than that...all of you who's only argument against the North Stars, because of a Minnesota connection, are closed minded. It would have nothing to do with Minnesota or their retired hockey nickname. It has everything to do with North Dakota as a state. We are one of the most northern of states, we are one of the leaders in oil production, low unemployment, agriculture, one of the most northern Universities etc.. We are the North Stars in many ways. Why is everyone so biased and negative to all of these suggestions when you all know we have to change and there is no going back. If you believe we should be something other than what is suggested by the committee than write the Herald and really get your opinion heard. I will always be a Fighting Sioux supporter/fan forever but the nickname needs to be changed.
  8. Dear Sir,

     

    Please use some common-sense when you post.

     

    "Most people" who are familiar with UND football, and even honest NDSU fans, understand that UND football is improving. There is no reason UND can't be a top 3 Big Sky Conference team every season considering where its facilities and budget are at right now. Of course, this can only happen as long as UND is led by competent coaches; fortunately, Bubba and his assistants are just that. Unfortunately, before last season, UND was led by incompetent coaching. 

     

    UND, in 2013, went 3-8, then, after Mussman was fired, they lost several key contributors, including a couple who will be playing/starting on FBS squads in 2015. Bubba, coaching a decimated, inexperienced roster, then went ahead and improved two games from 3-8 in 2013 to 5-7 in 2014. Now, UND has its entire defense returning (which was #1 in the Big Sky Conference in 2014) and several talent additions to the offense (including a few in progress) for the 2015 season. Also, the recruiting classes Bubba has put together so far are filled with ND/MN/Canadian talent which will better prevent defections. 

     

    "Most" - as you put it - would look at that and see improvement in 2015 for UND. Mark my words, UND will have a winning season in 2015. 

    YES! THIS^^^ nosidel

     

    Thank you for taking the time to explain exactly what I am talking about. I lack the patients or care to waste time explaining such visible evidence to someone so incompetent.

  9. Well, if you see "visible" improvement in a 5-7 season with, maybe, one significant win...well more power to you. Most people would say that, despite the great Bubba's presence, UND hasn't proven a thing on the field yet.

    OMG...please leave you miserable person! Someone please kick this fool

  10. I guess I shouldn't have expected you to get it. It's about self-delusion...seeing something other than reality. Sometimes hope does that to us.

     

    Right...you assume I didn't get it and mention that you believe I didn't get it, to what? Make yourself seem credible? More intelligent? Superior? 

     

    Well your assumption is incorrect, making you look like the @$$ you are!

     

    I understood what you meant. The problem here is that your the one not getting it. You're on a UND fan board spreading your FU garbage that none of us care to hear.

     

    We are getting better and that is visible! 

  11. You know, sometimes the light at the end of the tunnel you think you see is really a freight train bearing down on you.

     

    Thank you nosidel for pointing out exactly what I am talking about...you are so annoying. This post you made is idiotic

  12. I'm so sick of all these FU folk on here. This is a UND thread. Yes, we have been irrelevant, but won't be for much longer. We know it because its visible. You know it because you are on here and the game is coming fast! Save all your crap for after the game. We obviously don't care what pessimistic banter you keep trying to spread on here. If we did, we'd go to Bisonswell where all you FU fans continue to swell those enormous heads of yours.... 

  13. Well, I guess that just indicates the current state of the two fan bases. Obviously, NDSU fans have a whole lot more to talk about.

     

    I wouldn't go that far...I would simply state they are much more full of $hit and are so full of themselves that they can't help but to go on other teams boards and act like fools

  14. I'm on record saying in another thread that the meltdown here will be of epic proportions.  And Hakstol will still be the head coach next fall.  

     

    Who are you? And why are you on this thread if you have no faith or optimism with our team heading into the FF as the top team remaining?

     

    Please leave if this is your true feeling
