SiouxVolley Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 One thing that hurts NDSU is not only losing to UND....but to a UND team with a losing record. NDSU would be annihilated by Idaho St, N Colorado, and Portland St. Let UND play in the Summit League to rack up easy wins. Quote

dmksioux Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Used to hear from the Bison fans how good there were in volleyball, and how they would be a regional power in that sport. So now they absolutely suck? If NDSU sucks now, they will suck even more in the future. Look at the volleyball rosters of UND vs NDSU. UND is young - no senior on the team - and getting young depth (Hart and Thompson are true freshmen from ND who are getting playing time). NDSU is a senior-laden team that will get much worse before it gets better. Hardee is winning all the area recruiting battles. Girls will even walkon for Hardee because they want to play for him. The one recruit from Red River that NDSU was trumpeting didn't get an offer from UND. If you think NDSU sucks this year, watch and wait. This. UND has a real good Sophomore class. We may be struggling a bit this year (and hopefully we can still make a run come tourney time), but the next couple of years could be a lot of fun for UND vb fans. Quote

Granted I don't think she has the height to be a front line player but I've seen her play and she is extremely athletic and can really strike the ball. Granted I've only seen her play once but I think a player you could compare her to is Lexi Robinson. Quote
WYOBISONMAN Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Congrats on the win. Clearly NDSU has hit the skids for both volleyball and women's BB. I suspect if things don't improve there will be some coaching changes on down the road. Quote

Perhaps that's a big part of the problem. Quote

With 0 seniors on this year's team it likely means Hardee is being incredibly selective when it comes to recruiting. Assuming that all of their allotted scholarships are filled he's probably only looking at a few top players just in case a scholarship or 2 opens up. Quote

I don't know what this issue is, but obviously something is not working and it sure seems the fans are getting pretty short tempered with the performance. Quote
bincitysioux Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I was at the game the first two games. No way it got louder when UND scored in person. On the radio perhaps based on where the microphone was. We suck. UND doesn't look like they are any good either. I won't pretend like I know much about volleyball. So having said that, I'd say the fact that North Dakota has won two straight against Fargo, I'll assume we looked better.................... Quote

You obviously didn't get the memo, when NDSU loses to UND, it is because NDSU's teams are terrible. UND's are terrible as well, they just happened to be a little less terrible that given night. Should have learned that from basketball last year. Quote

Other reasons that UND beats NDSU are when NDSU overlooks UND, that UND considers it their Super Bowl while NDSU doesn't care about the game, UND gets lucky, and if it happens in a meaningless sport.

the green team Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Of course their student newspaper is already practicing revisionist history. At least with the headline, it's the headline that went to print as well. I find our misguided siblings to the south so hilarious. http://forum.siouxsports.com/uploads/emoticons/default_laugh.png' alt=':lol:'> http://www.ndsuspectrum.com/sports/bison-women-sweep-und-1.2924410#.UHd35a6Lg84 Perhaps they feel they can actually condition the masses at NDSU that it was they who swept and not UND. If their student body only reads headlines, they may inclined to believe it. That pretty sums up most of those who constantly feel the need to troll this forum. They are always about revising history. Quote
