nodak651 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Volleyball accounts for 4 of the most recent 6 threads in the "other sports" section. Volleyball topics have been viewed nearly 80,000 times in the past year. Their popularity is on the rise, and I think the team deserves to have its own forum. 1 Quote

Been suggesting it for a couple.months. But then again its Jim's forum and he's done so much for the UND community over the years that I hesitate to ask for more. Quote
jimdahl Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Nah, it's you guys' board. Creating new forums is no effort whatsoever. Volleyball is probably next in line for its own sport conference. The only reason we don't do it automatically for all sports is that having its own forum can improve discussion about a sport by letting a sport thread break up into multiple threads, but can also kill it by reducing traffic. Recent success has definitely helped volleyball, so this is probably the peak time in the past decade. If anyone else has comments, feel free to pipe up. Quote

I also feel it would be appropriate for VB to stand alone as a topic. As you indicated, winning creates interest and I would guess we will continue to do well in the sport. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I would appreciate a volleyball section. Thanks to all who maintain this site! Quote
darell1976 Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Enjoy! Thanks!!! Maybe if we can get baseball a growing sport up here (now that we are in an autobid conference) it will see its own thread. Of course its tough when you start the first 20-30 games on the road. Quote
