If FS4L is calling you out on overreacting, you need to chill. No offense FS4L. That game sucked, it looked a team that just got almost a completely new team playing as 5 individual people vs a team that was in the national title game last season playing as a unit. What will define this team is what they learn from games like that and how fast they can learn it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it is too early to overreact, but St. Thomas was able to muster an attack against their young defense, so it is just disappointing that we were kind of a one and done on the offensive end with very little sustained pressure. Need to put one in early tomorrow and hope we can fluster them a bit, instead of the other way around. They got the snipes, so we need Gaber, Perron, Blake, etc. to show some of what we have been seeing on our end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football just beat the 150thish best team in the county... for the 1st time in 20 years... I think we can calm the tits on the success comparison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightingsioux4life Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Let's look at recent NCAA champions: Denver: Small private school. Quinnipiac: Small private school. UM-Duluth: Public, four year university that is Division 2 in all other sports and will never be confused with a Power 5 school. BU & BC: Both small private schools. Haven't won a natty in awhile, but don't seem to have problems reeling in top talent. None of those schools are, and likely never will be, Power 5 schools. Yet, they keep reeling in top recruits and/or hanging NCAA title banners. And they have a fraction of the resources UND and other, even larger schools have. The idea that UND can't compete with these schools and is now a "plucky little mid-major" program that "backfills with overagers" to be competitive is pure baloney. It does not have to be that way. There's no reason it has to be that way. And it turns my stomach to think of us becoming one of the Alaska schools or Miami. It cannot be allowed to ever happen. Period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayduke1 Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I’ll watch tomorrow night. Hate the $)&&@“ rodents. Tonight I was in Loveland Colorado and watched Aaron Schneekloth’s Colorado Eagles give him his 1st AHL head coaching win against the Grand Rapids Griffins. 6 to 3 final. Could have used him to check a couple of golfers into the UND bench…. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't think we are that bad, though. St. Thomas, which probably still has some Division 3 players, put 4 goals on this team. And we can't put up even one? If we really are this bad, we have bigger problems to deal with. And I think we all know what that means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
