Not sure what they were #turningtheirback on. Appeared to be the parking lot to the north. The no- shows feared repercussions from UND. Really? I guess thats almost 1/4 of the people that attends women's hockey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchyAlum11 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 The main problem womens hockey has that is within its control, is that there is no checking... and honestly know one can give a good reason for why. Letting the girls check might be a good way to make the game more intresting, and less like squirt hockey game. I realize that womens sports as whole draw less attention than mens sports, but letting the girls play out of the same rule book could help, and it sure as hell wouldn't hurt. the game as a whole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Someone did the math over on the GF Herald on how much money they would need to do it privately: a 32.5 million dollar endownment? Is that even possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Also, it'd likely be robbing Peter to pay Paul, as the pool of potential donors of that size for UND isn't very big, so that $$ may have been donated for something else.

FY16 WIH: Expenses: $2,132,160 Revenues: $212,180 Net: -$1,919,980 At 5%, you need more like $38.4 million. Call it $40 million by the time you get it accumulated and another year of expense growth. And honestly, 5% is pretty aggressive. I'd say 4% is more realistic which would mean more like $48-50 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
