At worst they will go into conference play at 2-1 and likely 3-0 since they are catching EWU in their first game. IMO the MVFC will give them bigger challenges this year, and if EWU can beat them, there's a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightingsioux4life Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 On 1/8/2017 at 2:34 PM, NoiseInsideMyHead said: This sounds awfully petty. As if no UND hockey fan has ever sought consolation at the end of a season by noting the eventual tournament fate/success of the team that knocked out the Sioux. The Bison run is epic, and historic, and deserving of as many superlatives as any NDSU fan can muster...let them be. As are most of the trolls that come over here to rub our noses in it. So no, I will not "let them be". You reap what you sow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darell1976 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 NDSU to play Arizona in 2022. Nice to see PAC12 still scheduling FCS teams along with the Big 12, is the Big 10 the only one with a ban on FCS teams, I know they wanted more conferences to do it but I don't think the SEC did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homer Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Pretty interesting tweet from a recently departed player from FU Lots of comments about coach/player relationships there Not saying I agree or disagree but obviously was within the program and does not think real highly of current staff https://mobile.twitter.com/BCarlton6/status/853347211278680065/photo/1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now he can't hack it. I am sure the coaches will be saying "he didn't have what it takes to play the Bison way", or some !@#$ like that. Like they have before.

Total different ball game from HS. The move up can be a pretty big slap in the face when the shine wears off and you are looking at kids who are just as good or better than you are. Youre not top dog anymore. Plus after a time they realize they just dont have the commitment. Doesnt make any difference if you are a top recruit or not. You still have to prove yourself. Hes still in school from what I can tell. Lets see if he goes some place else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnt Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I'm not sure I am going to read too much into a few players bad mouthing coaches or a program. Every program has people who leave or don't have a good experience. If fans are always wondering why some players are playing over others with no personal stake in the matter, imagine how it compounds when you are the one that feels they are being treated unfairly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that have to do with some of your fans showing their ndsu class and going after the kid after he talked about his experience?
