UND1983 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 If I am seeing this correctly Brewster scheduled one D1 OOC home game this year. I repeat - ONE D1 OOC home game. But they did lock up Mayville State for a December 12th exhibition tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had to say no to season tickets this year. Not sure Brewster is in charge of scheduling though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a lot easier to get P-5 and elite programs for home games in WBB than men's. For the men, I think a big part of it is the guarantee money. For the women, the top teams don't want to tank their RPI, so they wouldn't risk travelling to a place where they risk a "bad loss" against a sub-150 RPI team. The Jacks are a perennial high-RPI team, and as such, are a lot more likely to get great teams to come into Brookings. I don't know what the Sioux/Hawks have been in average RPI over the last few years, but if the average is over 150, I'd say your coach just isn't doing a good job luring in teams to Grand Forks. I wouldn't say he is doing a terrible job scheduling, though, as your current SOS is #87. Because of that tough schedule, your RPI is #174, despite the 2-7 record. Good strategy for RPI, but one would think he could get some better home games for the fans. JMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ND-fan Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 The latest NCAA RPI shows SDSU 11; USD 17; Denver 77; UND 175; ORU 188; WI 249; OHMA 264; PDW 320; NDSU 331. This shows UND is in middle of pack with the Summit but this is far cry from where we were couple of years ago when we had RPI from 60 to 100. This shows the program has gone backward in last couple of years and we may show further regression before this year is out. The way it looks is we are not even in the league of the 2 South Dakota schools for the coming year and the next year year. I listen to AD podcast sure don't hear any concerns on his part about women's basketball program but I got to feel they are starting to hear from the fan base. Especially when they see how far behind we are in level of competition with other summit league schools. Because few years ago when we played the South Dakota schools we were basically right with them and now I betting we are going to fight to stay within 25 points of them. I think we had a coach that got lazy in recruiting and also has ego that thought he should be moving on to bigger and better program and didn't happen. I also think change in ADs' has hurt in that time has been given as new AD figures things out and he only had past prior years records but not understanding where the program sits right now. The good thing is that NDSU womens basketball program is even further trouble making it easier for UND recruit players. But that window may all of sudden close too and then we will be in for real fight to improve this program. The one thing is the Summit conference is sure conference of the haves and have nots in womens basketball the gap between top 3 and bottom 6 is great right now. We could see 2 teams in NCAA tournament and Denver could also slip in if they continue improve their RPI but could be contender for one of the other college basketball tournaments.

That's an interesting angle. I'd like to know if any other posters here agree with your view on the coach. I know you stated this earlier, but nobody responded for whatever reason. ...... The one thing is the Summit conference is sure conference of the haves and have nots in womens basketball the gap between top 3 and bottom 6 is great right now.... I agree, and although the Jacks and Coyotes benefit from it, it does seem to have a chilling effect on the struggling teams, which makes it hard to build a strong conference that would benefit all the teams. My theory is that as a women's sport, it is easy for fans to lose interest when the team is bad, but it is much harder to build and maintain that fan support and interest. Individual great coaches can buck this trend with great recruiting, schemes and coaching, but sustainability is built with fan interest and support. i.e. money. That's why I think both ND schools have more potential for sustained success than many Summit teams. Because of your loyal fan bases (and past success). You have to get the right coaches, though, and I don't know that you have that. Just my opinion. We could see 2 teams in NCAA tournament and Denver could also slip in if they continue improve their RPI but could be contender for one of the other college basketball tournaments. Three teams would not happen. A mid-major needs at least #40 and more likely #35 for an at-large bid. Despite the current RPI rankings, they will fall by the time we all play each other in-conference. SDSU is on-track for an at-large, barring any major slip-ups. USD is probably on the bubble, maybe just outside. Denver will likely end up around #100, which would get them into the WNIT, but not the NCAA. The Summit has never had multiple WBB bids that I am aware of. As a mid-major it's really hard. If the ND schools improved, it would help everyone's RPI. Also, can I ask if you are Russian or Slavic? Leaving out articles/determiner words like "the" and "an" is typical of Slavic languages. No offense, just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 We have fallen so far that it will take time to get the players we need to compete.do we have the leadership needed to evaluate talent and get them to come to UND? how did we get to this situation? I used to look forward to these games. Now I may watch but as I watch us self destruct I almost find it comical. sad sad sad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdub27 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Got it close but couldn't quite get all the way back. Klabo was uncharacteristically off, going 3-16 from the field, she normally shoots well over 50%. Team shot 32% overall, not going to win many games doing that.

UND Fan Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Unreal game - going to overtime. Klabo had made 16 of 17 FTs and then missed two (we were ahead by two at the time) with 16 seconds left. We will likely lose now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
