I think if some people were honest, (and would explain why some people who don’t care about WIH seem so invested in their demise), it wasn’t about how much WIH lost so much as it was what (enter their team) didn’t have. This wasn’t about saving money but reallocating it to other programs. Let’s hope this year isn’t an indication of what they do with the extra $$. .

How long has football been a sport at UND? What year(s) did they make money? How much have they lost in those year(s) they didn’t make $$? How long do we support a team that loses that much $$? Now, I am not proposing we cut football. Heavens no. . I love football. But to continue using “financial abyss” and “staggering red ink” and not call it across the board is getting old.

So the “value to the university” like the 3rd NY Times article about the UND women’s hockey program. Not even our “historic” year last year made the cut. Or the number of times UND will be mentioned during the winter Olympics (I know, I know, Olympian’s, Sholympians...). And I would probably be careful what you say about “financial abyss” athletic programs....

To some this decision was a huge blow. To current players, past players and future players who’s goal was to play for UND. Not including staff, fans, other programs. Just because it didn’t effect you or anyone you know doesn’t mean it wasnt heart-breaking to a group of others. To so easily dismiss their emotions about the situation is grossly insensitive and thoughtless. If there are people who still get angry every time it is brought up (and didn’t care about women’s hockey) then why would it be a surprise that there are people who are still saddened by the decision whose life it did effect.

Has anyone actually seen the “savings” for cutting 2.9M, when they only needed $1.3M? Has the 2017-18 budget come out yet? That’s a lot of extra money that should be floating around. Just curious with all these “business and basic math” comments.

Ambulance chaser....good to have hobbies.

Why so quiet....?

Another nice sweep by the ladies. Looked solid top to bottom.

Nice road sweep of the Buckeyes last weekend...stellar performance by the D and SAB. Nice job ladies.

Yes. You are correct. Sorry about that.

Prayers for Layla Marvin and her family as she was hit by a car yesterday and underwent surgery last night. Sounded like it could have been much worse so thankful they were non-life threatening injuries.

So you wish for his demise (and the 20-something student athletes he coaches) because you don't like the way he plays hockey (or drinks beer)? I'm guessing you would rather he have your personality.....

Question: why is Idalski not liked in GF? Have seen it posted on here before but no real details. I've met him at boosters and chatted a few times. Seems decent enough. Is it coaching style or personality?
