MDtoGF Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Hi all, got some good answers about the financial impact (potential) of the lost NCHC first round series from Jody Hodgson himself. Give them a read won't you? https://seamoresports.com/2020/04/06/coronavirus-and-und-athletics-what-does-it-mean/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I like the last sentence in the third paragraph, just before the questions start. "All net profits it makes every year are turned over to the UND Athletics Department at the end of each event year." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND1983 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 It means that while there is literally ZERO athletics going on in the entire country, we cannot talk about the virus and how it's being handled by the people in charge. Because the mods said so. Instead let's talk about footb....I mean hock....I mean basketb......I mean well, ummmm..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a little middle ground though, just look at all that has already been impacted by the virus. 1) Spring Practice Cancelled 2) Spring/Winter Sports wiped out 3) UND WBB coaching hire 4) Likely no HPC Phase 2 coming this year 5) Recruiting issues 6) Long-term financial impact on UND/UND athletics/Grand Forks community and potential sponsor ships Likely other impacts not even aware about on the UND athletic community.

UNDColorado Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I am reading a lot of chatter today about the NFL having a season. The models were wrong the entire time and the economy is going to re-open in May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drag it out for a week so have something to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernraider Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 ESPN would certainly love this. It already is what a 3 day affair ? At least gives the talking heads something else to chat about 29 minutes ago, Nodak78 said: Let's start with the draft.

Nodak78 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 So are going to have a temperature check before entering the Alerus center for Football games. If so I will pass on season tickets. Not drive from Williston to be turned away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
