Hawkster Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 This shouldn't have to happen. We belong in the Sky and I want to puke at the thought of playing in the Mo valley FC or the Summit. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious lack of vision in this move. The fact that 50% of the posts here focus on a single regional school reflects the obsession far too many fans -- and apparently some coaches and administrators --have with the AC, a school/team that would leave this conference in a heartbeat if it had the opportunity. Hard for me to see the great benefit in being part of a basketball tournament that essentially gives home-court advantage to the same two teams year after year. And nothing like travel to scenic Rust Belt cities like Youngstown. I'm not obsessed with NDSU. This conference will bring more fans to the game. Not just NDSU but USD, SDSU and Northern Iowa will have fans at the alerus. Montana is the only team currently who brings more than just parents. It's also great for the students, remember the days of stealing the nickel or the mascots head? Does anybody think that wanting to play Minnesota in hockey means your obsessed with the gophers? Fact is the old WCHA was better than the NCHC and the old NCC was better than anything we've had since. This is a great move and long overdue. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, as I said above I am having a selfish reaction because it is nice to have UND Football play every other year within a 2 hour drive. In the end UND will be just fine. No reason that UND wont play the Bears as a frequent nonconference game. Same possibility with the Montana schools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBR Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 If you are in Vermillion and looking for something to do check out the National Music Museum and/or the Missouri River National Waterway. Kayaks can be rented locally. Or get online and complain about the place...your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBR Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Continuing to play UNC would make this move more palatable for me too. Wouldn't mind a rematch with Wyoming in Laramie either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herd Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Its amazing the lengths und will go to force an 11th hour WAC deal. The WAC deal's a slam dunk now as und is pushing all the right buttons. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
