darell1976 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I hope BF, and Bubba take this into consideration....after this season UND won't have 6 home games until possibly 2018 and that is if we get another home game for that year. 2015 (currently 5 with one open spot) 2016 (5 home games, full schedule) 2017 ( 4 home games with one open spot) 2018 (5 home games with one open spot) 2019 ( no games scheduled 12 game season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was clear that the spot was being held for the series to be renewed. At this point, its also clear that barring some unforeseen change, its not going to happen. Fill it and move on.

Risky Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I think Faison should give Taylor one last chance to resume the rivalry with a first game in Fargo as soon as NDSU wants it, and at least get a date in writing for a return game in Grand Forks . We need to finish our schedules. And in fairness to NDSU they have a lot of games to finish on their schedules and I am sure they will need quite a bit of time to finish their schedules since they are tougher to fill than ours. It is definitely time to move on for UND. NDSU had their chance. At least UND can continue to beat NDSU in the rest of the sports for the time being. Football will have to wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bison73 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Kind of funny how quiet this thread has been since Schloss came on and set the story straight. For some reason you folks seem to think that all the communication via email defines this situation. So you are trying to tell that over the two year gap that there was no communication via phone? They never talked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is disputing they didn't talk, but in May 2012 GT again told Izzo that the series was close to resuming (which in turn caused the Herald to contact Faison for comment, but that's a whole different argument). So clearly a year after the e-mails that were published from 2011, the home/home was still in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are trying to tell that over the two year gap that there was no communication via phone? They never talked? I am only going to comment on what I know. What I do know is that most of the bizun fans who were over here in mass were completely wrong and all of a sudden things calmed down once the facts we already knew were confirmed. I will not speculate what could have been said over phone calls. Have a nice weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulk Truck Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I would bet that if both schools swapped AD's for a month this game would still not get scheduled. This points to the fact that both of these guys are representing their respective school's interest and they're both just working for the MAN!

It took you guys this long to get to that? NDSU did that years ago after the hissy fit the Administration up at elforko grande pulled.

MafiaMan Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 In all of this verbal banter back and forth between fans of both schools a bit of irony may have taken place with the hiring of Coach Schweigert. Striking similarities and connections to Coach Hager! 1. Both are fine family men and basic decent people. 2. Both come from small town humble Class B backgrounds. 3. Both attended college somewhere other than UND or NDSU. 4. Bubba attended Jamestown College. 5. Rocky attended Minot State College. 6. Both have rugged nicknames but fairly innocuous given names Rocky(Ralph) and Bubba(Kyle) 7. Both developed intense passion about the schools they coached at but never attended as varsity athletes. 8. Both are relatively soft spoken believers in their respective schools, but yet both viewed the rivalry as almost akin to a Holy War. 9. Both of their alma maters went from colleges to universities after they left. 10. Both were defensive coordinators before they became Head Coaches. 11. Rocky was born in 1951 and Bubba was 51 when he was hired. 12. Both coached at their respective schools two different times. 13. Both coached at other schools with dogs for nicknames SIU Salukis and Northeastern Huskies. 14. Both had a deep affection for their home State of North Dakota. 15. Both had to leave the State in order to come back and coach at UND and NDSU. 16. Both came from communities with predominately German origin, Coach Schweigert Zeeland and Coach Hager Harvey. 17. Two different eras two very similar men. Wow, all that's missing is Hager's brother having saved Bubba's son by pulling him off the train tracks during the Civil War.

Bulk Truck Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Wow, all that's missing is Hager's brother having saved Bubba's son by pulling him off the train tracks during the Civil War. We debated putting that in, but the review board didn't feel it was chronologically possible! 1. Neither Rocky's brother nor Bubba's son were alive during the Civil War. 2. There were no railroad tracks in Dakota Territory during the Civil War. 3. Ya, I know those damn details! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good, I'm glad GT doesn't schedule UND. As a Teammaker and fan, I want to have 6 home games during the regular season. No way taking a home game away to go to Grand Forks, unless it is a season where there are 12 games allowed, then there can still be 6 home games with a traveling game to GF. Although it would be nice to have 7 home games during a 12 game regular season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
