Oxbow6 Posted March 29 Posted March 29 According to the UND administration lackeys on this sitet I guess it just had to be done since fans aren't stepping up enough in other AD financial streams. 1 Quote

Was expecting it but still kind of ballzy to announce an increase in prices per season ticket in hockey, FB and BB given the $#it show that currently is UND athletics. So season ticket renewal opens today through May 15. Credit shows up on invoice for last year's prepaid playoff FB and hockey tickets that were of course useless but the increase in season ticket prices basically cancels out the credit. Brillant move by the Twamley bean counters and the athletic department. 1 Quote

Brillant move by the Twamley bean counters and the athletic department. Playing Devil's advocate here, the athletic department did make needed changes in the leadership of both FB and hockey. Without those changes, I don't know if I would accept the price increases. 1 Quote

Yeah I think you are right. So is it related to the title 9 investigation? Once again this shows why we need a change of leadership at the AD position every week there is something else with this department and it is never good. 2 Quote

So you agree the coach went winless in conference play (with one total conference win the last two seasons) and his contract was up and you somehow connect the non-renewal to something else? My guess would be expectations were set before the season on what kind of results were needed for an extension and those weren't met... 1 Quote

The team goes winless and he's suing on Title 9 grounds? This case is DOA. Quote

My guess would be expectations were set before the season on what kind of results were needed for an extension and those weren't met... I didn’t know there was only one win in two years. If this is connected to the investigation though it could be an issue for the university. Plus I think it would be hard for a coach to recruit athletes that could win any games when you look at the shocking state of their field. Hopefully one day we are able to discuss winning about any of our teams but right now the whole athletic department is a dumpster fire. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted Friday at 12:08 PM Posted Friday at 12:08 PM Contract expired. Were there conditions for renewal or automatic renewal? If not ... Contract expired and it wasn't renewed. That is all. Quote

The entire field was redone in 2018/19 and their locker rooms are in the REA. Overall, it's not a professional level setup, but "shocking state" seems like we're over-exaggerating just a bit 1 Quote

They would be better playing at Cushman field if UND is too lazy to build them a proper facility IMO. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted Friday at 01:53 PM Posted Friday at 01:53 PM I don't know FIFA from the neighbor's poodle Fifi ... but I do know less than a decade ago Bronson was scraped and rebuilt (and they played that season at EGF HS). 2 Quote

Complete waste of resources that could be better served by an additional parking lot for the REA. 1 Quote

gfhockey Posted Friday at 02:11 PM Posted Friday at 02:11 PM Per source the grass didn’t grow back at the same speed some blades grew longer then others 1 Quote

forksandspoons Posted Friday at 02:14 PM Posted Friday at 02:14 PM I see they’ve been scrimmaging on the brand new turf at Memorial Village. Anyone know if that will be the full time home? It’s a cool set up and I know bleachers and a new track were in the plans as well Quote

Not going to pretend whether I know that is accurate or not, but is it correct that it is the only grass field? Which is what professionals prefer to play on? What about the rest of the facilities? 1 Quote
UND92,96 Posted Friday at 03:11 PM Posted Friday at 03:11 PM Quote Logan said the practice field is expected to be completed by the fall, with the timeline for the game surface undetermined. He said the importance has been placed on getting the project done right, rather than hurrying it along. *** "That's exciting for the program," UND coach Chris Logan said. "It should be a new, premier surface that will enhance the quality of play and the fan experience, as well." *** "It's another demonstration of support for soccer that the athletic department has embarked upon," Logan said. From a Herald 2018 article about UND redoing the field. 3 Quote
