jimdahl Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 For those who don't know, this is a printed publication that will be put out by REA/UND starting this Summer covering Sioux athletics. Subscriptions will cost $15/year for 6 issues. The initial marketing plan was to send an initial free copy to everyone who gets the Alumni Newsletter (which I assume still holds). My understanding is that it's going to be a bit more "behind the scenes", human interest, etc... instead of just news, and that each issue will focus primarily on a different sport. I wasn't aware of this before today, but the web site seems to indicate that the web content will be accessible only to paid print subscribers. I guess the reality of college sports today is that you have to take advantage of each revenue opportunity. Regardless, it's great to see more high quality information published on the Sioux.

sprig Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Looks like we'll soon be getting the free first issue. Looks like it may be worth a subscription. Anyone get one yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puck Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 According to the news release and interviews on WDAZ, there will be a swimsuit issue (featuring the UND swimming and diving teams). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11~ZachAttack~11 Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 I just got my first issue. It looks like it's gonna be a great magazine when all of the seasons start (esp. hockey! ). I'm really looking forward to future issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 I am surprised the misfits/retards over at http://www.UND-fraud.com haven't chimed in and talked about how evil this magazine is. I am sure Flicker Tail will not disappoint us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Starting to feel like a lost alumnus. No surprise. Hey Spring, I didn't get mine either. Anyone have the number to the office I can call to get mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdahl Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 I don't know how the alumni office handles the Alumni News, but quite often when a relatively small office mails 90,000 large periodicals, they don't send them all in one day. Further, mail transit times can vary dramatically for periodical class materials. I wouldn't start worrying just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacardio Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Got mine on 8/5. But have not had time to read it yet. other then the article on Jason Blake. My Dad who lives in Sioux Falls, and is an Sioux Hockey alum has not received his yet, so don't feel so bad dagies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamStrait Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Haven't received mine yet either. Maybe it's because I've already subscribed, sight unseen, so they think I'm easy to please (or hard to piss off). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tboneund Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 My boss got one and didn't want it so he gave it to me...I read it cover to cover then sent in my subscription, it's a great magazine. I can't wait until the Oct. Hockey issue and Feb. swimsuit issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux fan in phoenix Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 My father also received his today (08/13) & he told me he wasn't even expecting one. Said that a couple of the women hockey players were lookers. Is this true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
