SWSiouxMN Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 If UND wants the scab to heal, part of that is going to have to come from the athletic department itself. Translation: what happened this year cannot be the norm, it must be the exception. One sport in particular needs to follow that more than others Quote

SiouxVolley Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 Their are now more girls lacrosse players in MN than girls hockey players. Yet MN has 5 DI WIH teams vs 0 DI lax teams. Womens lax should be the next program UND starts, if it needs to start one. So much cheaper and can actually help enrollment much more than WIH. It’s actually growing around the world. https://www.mnlaxhub.com/news_article/show/815030-girls-lacrosse-continues-its-accelerated-growth-across-minnesota Quote

BobIwabuchiFan Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Did anyone get the new numbers from 2017 on AD revenues for UND...Did the Football team turn it around given last season's disappointment? I'm thinking that the whole department would greatly benefit from the FB program producing at break-even or at less than a $500k loss overall - When they cut WIH, didn't FB and WIH have about the same loss to the AD overall (~$2-2.5mil loss)? It will be interesting to see what the impact was on MH revenue given the up and down season we had and the miss on tournament... Quote

It would be very hard for FB to come close to break even. Only have a 12K seat stadium. Quote

No, I'm just using the information provided by the AD stating what the costs and associated revenues were for each sport. I believe that the last information I received it showed the loss was relatively the same for each program. It would be hard for me to assess the outside contributions of each sports alumni when its not documented. 1 Quote

Football raised over 20 million for the High Performance Center, which benefits multiple sports on campus. There are also required champions club donations for season tickets. You are being biased by ignoring donations. Logic - What fan base will donate more money, a team with an average attendance of 10,000 or 500? 1 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 i heard that one of the lamerioux twins golfed with kaitlyn jenner when she was in la...she refers to her as kaitlyn and refers to her as a woman...which is fine and dandy BUT does she not realize aligning yourself on that side of the debate ensures the end of FEMALE athletics as she knows it?

KoolGuy2K Posted June 12, 2018 Posted June 12, 2018 What a waste of time. How can they claim sex discrimination when the baseball team was cut too? The school was in full compliance with Title IX too. 4 Quote

Anyone know the particular reason this was filed against NDUS instead of UND? Is it because UND showed that they, as an individual institution, were in compliance? I mean they were literally cleared by the group that is charge of Title IX compliance, so there has to be something different here. And the article is very clear in stating NDUS not UND. Quote “Plaintiffs seek to represent a class of all current, prospective, and future female students who are harmed by and want to end the University’s sex discrimination and violation of Title IX as demonstrated by its repeated failure to determine the athletic interests and abilities of women students and women athletes before it eliminated the women’s ice-hockey program.” Quote

I’ll take a guess they will bring up LIU-Brooklyn adding women’s hockey and use it to why UND needs to add hockey. This is the type of thing that will keep other colleges/university’s from adding women’s hockey, besides the $2 million it’s going to lose. Quote
