I'm a Bison fan and and did not realize NDSU EVER won a national championship in men's basketball. I really think they are confusing men's and women's BB. I am almost certain UND has had more men's BB success in D2 than NDSU. Quote
darell1976 Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 How is our facilities the 3rd worst in the conference? I didn't know the Betty is falling apart. Quote
SiouxVolley Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 Sather probably didn’t even vote because he hasn’t been around the conference once. NDSU is such a joke as first in media if they are only counting national TV. Bet NDSU wishes they had a do over on facilities. Western Illinois is by far the last school. Most of the others are packed together. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 The WIU comments.... even the win comments are backhanded. Quote

NDSU definitely did not win a DII championship, and UND did have more DII success. The DII champ in 1977 was Chattanooga. NDSU - 10 NCC championships, 9 NCAA tournament appearances, NCAA tourney record of 8-8; best finish: regional 3rd place winner(3x). UND - 18 NCC championships; 19 NCAA tournament appearances; NCAA tourney record of 29-22; best finish: national 3rd place winner(2x) . Quote

Probably more than just that. The facilities category is defined as: "Not just the arena, but also practice facilities, weight room, locker rooms, etc." I'm guessing it's the small size of the Betty combined with it being more of a high school configuration rather than a bowl style with a concourse and premium seating. Plus a lack of dedicated basketball practice facilities(shared with VB). I'm also guessing the weight room and locker room could be better as they're a major element of the HPF II project. Don't know if that's enough to really be in 7th place(don't know the Summit facilities well enough to say), but it must be a factor. Or the coaches that were interviewed didn't fully know UND's facilities yet and judged them inaccurately. Hard to know. Quote

Dagger Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 The story has little credibility. . Do some research. What a joke. Quote
