bincitysioux Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 What jdub said. Pack the Betty! I also prefer the Sioux Center 99% of the time, but if they were to put together a doubleheader with the men and women for the NDSU game in the REA, I would be down with that. Quote
SiouxVolley Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 Put the UNI and NDSU games in the Betty only if video boards are added. Quote
jdub27 Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 Do you have the dates yet for UNI and NDSU? I do not. I'm sure they are decided but I didn't ask. Quote
ArtVandalay Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 I believe the fgcu deal is a tourney thanksgiving week. Quote
dmksioux Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 Did you happen to peak at the attendance for that game? Nope, what was it? Quote
UND92,96 Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 Nope, what was it? 1963. Of course, that was the season before Huff, et al. arrived. UND finished 8-23 that season, and was 1-10 at the time that game was played. A loss to Mayville St. a few weeks earlier didn't exactly help attendance, either. Quote
petey23 Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 I believe the fgcu deal is a tourney thanksgiving week. I have attended this tourney before....well kind of. It was a 4 team tourney at Alico Arena then which is FGCU's home court. Now it is at Germain Arena which is where the ECHL's Everblades play and UND was supposedly slated to play hockey in their College Classic until the NCHC was formed and changed things. FGCU was my brother's adopted team when he lived there. Might have to spend Thanksgiving in Fla.! Quote
UND Fan Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Here is the most recent UND BB Newsletter. Interesting update on the incoming HS recruits, the trip to Europe, etc. I would recommend, if you can, assisting the program with a $100 contribution for their summer workouts.

UND-FB-FAN Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Different UNI program I would argue as they were a Top Ten team last year and might be ranked when they come next year. That's a pretty big deal. UND could also do something special that night and honor some of UND's teams from the early 1990s with Jake on it. In terms of actually winning the game, I think UND's best chance to knockoff UNI would be in the Betty. With that said, I am a supporter of moving a few games in the REA every season. It's just such an impressive building that it would help in recruiting. To ignore the recruiting and atmosphere it provides is foolish. Even at only 5,000 or 6,000, the REA would accommodate twice as many as UND could in the Betty. The thing is, though, that the UND MBB team needs time to practice in the REA, or else the game is just as foreign to UND as it is to the away team, like UNI or NDSU. Quote
niouxsiouxfan Posted May 19, 2015 Author Posted May 19, 2015 After visiting other threads that are receiving heavy traffic, something glaring arises. If Faison can find more money to payHak (presuming there was a biddng war, which seems likely), when is he going to explain himself? (How can the money be used elsewhere, and when is he going to give other programs the attention they need? I just want him to do more than promote hockey) Then when is some of that extra money going to get diverted to help other programs? Not just MBB! Quote

Doesn't make it true. Additionally, I suspect Faison has some hockey specific donors on speed dial who told him to call them as soon he hears Hak has an offer for somewhere else and they'll match it. Doesn't mean Faison has a pool of money sitting around that he refuses to use for other sports. 1 Quote
the green team Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I believe UND Athletics runs a deficit...not large when put into perspective of today's world, but I would be very surprised that they have a large surplus of money lying around-going unspent. Simply put, basketball just needs to win. First and foremost on the court, but also in the classroom and in the community with the character of the players that they have on the roster. Win, and the possibilities will be endless,for the team and the fan base. I truly believe that. Quote

Not just MBB!I think someone speculated that and created it out of whole cloth. Faison might have offered a little more money but there is no way he was in a bidding war with the Flyers. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 So outside of Hooker and assuming Brick starts at the 4, who do you think will fill the other 3 spots in the starters role? Does anyone think all 4 freshman will play this coming season? Quote

niouxsiouxfan Posted June 9, 2015 Author Posted June 9, 2015 Definitely a 3-guard lineup. As stated; Hooker, Crandall, Seales, Bernstine, Shanks I could see McDermott and Collins getting playing time as well. They both bring skillsets needed on this team. But, I wouldn't be surprised if one of them or even both redshirt. I'll have better grasp of that after FanFest, if not sooner. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 If UND want to make a run to the top of the Sky, these three things needs to happen 1) Development of Shanks and Cashman into more consistent post players. 2) Newcomers need to make an immediate impact 3) Hooker takes next step in his development and becomes a Big Sky POY candidate. Anybody hear how summer is going for these guys? Quote

UND Fan Posted July 2, 2015 Posted July 2, 2015 I assume (hope) that they haven't updated players' weights in this roster. Shanks and Cashman are listed still at 230 and 225, respectively. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted July 2, 2015 Posted July 2, 2015 Terrel de Rouen is no longer listed on the roster on UNDSports.com If true, no big loss. Quote
