He's just difficult to hear at times I feel. I would love it if Ryan Cunningham got an opportunity to call a UND hockey game. He's a solid PxP guy.......... I’m a big Hennessy fan. He still calls the games fine in my opinion. Any of the other podcast interview stuff he sounds like he about to kick the can……. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me wonder what the hang-up is. Could be a challenge by the unsuccessful bidder. Would hope not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horbachers showed their loyalty to Fargo - Hugo's has ALWAYS been about Grand Forks. VERY GLAD those douchebags from Learfield are OUT of the picture. and also ABOUT DAMN TIME Hugo's is the "official grocer" and yeah GO TO THE 506 and thank Hugo's for all their support for UND over the years. The downtown store is a great new asset and Hugo's has been a rock solid sponsor of UND athletics from the start. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nodak651 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 The formatting for Park Rapids and below is jacked up, so I am guessing they are working on that web page like right now and it will be announced shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodak651 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Looks like those new MN stations are all owned by De La Hunt Media. I've never heard of that company, but their 870 Park Rapids station seams to have a pretty large daytime coverage area. That said, nothing has officially been announced, so that could be an error on UND's website for all I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 The official release came about 4.5 hours before kickoff. Cutting it close, eh? I suspect Looker is doing road hockey color in preparation for him to take over when Hennessy is done. And Looker being a radio guy lightens the road technical load on Tim. (Assuming Looker will stay PA guy at REA for now.) It feels like succession planning, which is smart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
