nodak651 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 The news has it's own page now. You have to click the link in the way lower left corner of the home page to get there. http://news.siouxsports.com/ The content isn't that great anymore - doesn't show this article. Edit: On the home page there is a news section under "around the web". I think it used to be set up so members could add articles - not sure if that is still the case.

Just guessing - The team and all other students are on Spring Break until next Sunday. Hopefully, we'll get some football updates after the break, and none include disciplinary actions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In August . This would be big!! Anything new on this? When is this decision made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Sam Houston game is going to set the tone for the season and the crowds early in the year. If we can pull out a win there that will definitely generate some excitement. And if it is the FCS kickoff game, even more important that we play well in that game. If we do end up playing them the very first game, hopefully their QB won't be comfortable and in a rhythm....and we can keep him that way the whole game.

Sioux94 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 No news is probably good news this past week with them being on spring break. Hopefully we'll get some news out of spring ball that the OL seems to be improving. Are we able to really tell much from spring ball how the OL is doing?

Could be a lot of fun and with some pretty good crowds at the Hawks Nest this up coming season. The FB fans were climbing aboard the last couple years and tailed off through last season. Record season tickets last year really helped attendance, even with the wins hard to get. The FB fan base is going to need some rebuilding, and it can be done with the potential this team has. UND has to get back on track with the W's. Bubba, do you have the coaches ready? Spring football is here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essentially, the Sam Houston game will be a playoff game early in the season. If we want to gain respect with the pollsters and get the fans back on board, we have to win this game. We cannot get blown off the field; especially with Washington on the schedule early. We need to find a way to start 2-1. This might be the most important game of the year. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-FB-FAN Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 It's going to be a prove it or lose it type of season for Bubba. Last season just plain sucked. Bubba and his program need to prove they can walk the walk and win some games. Unfortunatley, due to that, spring ball and fall camp will be minimally intriguing to many this year. I know I'm one of those who feel last year dug this program into a !@#$ hole. Top 10 preseason turned to league bottom feeder will do that to you. I also feel the support for football from an athletic administrative and financial level is iffy at best and that is discouraging. Bottomline: desperately need results (wins) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottomline: desperately need results (wins) I blame last season on the MASH unit we fielded. Never have I seen that many injuries on one team. Now if 2018 is a repeat of results with little or no injuries then this team is in trouble and changes need to be made. Bubba took this program out of Mussman’s hole to the top of the conference in 3 short seasons, and he can do that again. #BelieveInBubba 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean this site actually attracts overly biased UND fans/alumni? Who would have thought such a novel concept possible? This site is anything but a credible democracy. In fact, the response to any form of criticism on this board is often exaggerated and illogical. It actually ruins the ability for fair two-sided discussion. I mean, this "issue" (or whatever you want to call it) now becoming the hot topic on this thread perfectly exemplifies both the current lull on UND football and the irrationality amongst many who call themselves UND fans. If you don't like what someone has to say, don't read it and/or certainly don't subscribe and comment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
