Re: Falcon baseball

So, does Gary Haas get his his Mill returned? :-k Good question. I created a baseball scholarship two years ago and it had been paying out, already. I invested a lot of money into seeding it initially, and there were plans for money from my estate going to it as well. While I understand the economi...

Re: NIU game thread

I just came on here to see what's going on. I never miss a game (either I'm there, watching on TV or listening to radio). I completely forgot they had a game last night. That's how bad this team is for me...completely forgettable. As a public service I would like to ask the folks of this board to s...

Agreed. NIU offense seems to be working with ease. Gotta be tougher on D, esp in the Red Zone.

We could join the Big 12 and get an FBS win vs Kansas.

Re: NIU game thread

Go BG! Does anyone know the last time we won at NIU? I think it would be pre Urban Meyer days. We don't play often and that is a hard place to win. They said in the intro on ESPNU that BG's last W at NIU was 1998. Winning record overall vs NIU and in MAC Champ vs NIU. BG down early... hope they can...

Re: vs Ohio State

Early in the season so there's time to make a solid run and turn things around. Even if it's in the second half, there's still potential to make a push in the WCHA playoffs, come into the conference playoffs as an underdog and surprise people from there on into NCAA tourney. That said, there was som...

Re: If Only...

laughing stock of the Midwest...What good uses could we get out of the ice arena?.... Sounds more like what someone who bleeds Midnight Blue and Gold from TSUN would say :vom: Just because the early stats show it could be a down year for BG Hockey, doesn't mean we're a laughing stock. There's a lot...

NDSU would easily be a top team in the MAC. Esp in what seems be a down year conference wide. They'd be double digit favorites for many MAC games.

Nice to get a video board finally, but isn't that empty space where the future club boxes are supposed to go?

Re: Things looking bad in Alaska

Anchorage is not recruiting - http://www.ktva.com/hockey-other-sports-programs-on-the-chopping-block-amid-ua-budget-cuts/ There was a feeling that even if the axe were to fall there would be another season or two before things closed up shop. It sounds like that's not the case anymore. Thomas proba...

Re: Minnesota State applies for NCHC

My first reaction to the possibility of BG's moving to the NCHC was it won't happen because travel would cost too much. There'd be two flights to Colorado. But there would be no trip to Alaska, WMU is closer than Ferris, and we'd have Miami. We apparently play the latter two every season, anyway. T...

Re: Minnesota State applies for NCHC

Minnesota State brings value to the NCHC...quality program, good location, good facilities. The only thing BG would bring is a closer opponent to Miami and Western. Bemidji is a pain in the ass to get to...I don't see the NCHC ever being interested in adding them. Michigan Tech or Ferris would both...

Re: what it takes (from Pecknold)

A lot of D1 teams use sports psych. A bigger reason why the QU program has made significant jump in competitiveness- they used to play in a local ice rink with a capacity of 1,200 but in 2009 the university opened the on-campus TD Banknorth Sports Center. It's still one of the newer buildings in col...

Re: BG vs GSU - Bowl Game Thread

BG looks about as disinterested as possible. Guys aren't even trying to tackle. Totally not the way we wanted to start whatsoever. We looked out of sorts on offense and the defense looks even less ready and prepared than I had feared. I'd like to see the NCAA step in and stop schools from poaching ...
