I'm not sure what is worse, the Women's play this year(getting embarrassed by UNI) or Dom's basketball "play by play". "And she goes in and ... scores" followed by "Bison women are going to need to get some stops" has been said at least 10 times since I started watching about 10 minutes ago.

is 4 points in 1st quarter normal?
In Wyo today. Uff, and Ugly.
19 turnovers lead to 23 pts.
The 2 teams combined were 4 of 31 after the first quarter.
ED. you aint impressed with 2-6 ? losing Marie Olson has to be hurting, she moved back to Cali? or what.
cobbins 0-10 hopkins 5-14
why is your STAR Heaven only shooting 4 shots? or was she doubled.
they play jamestown & und to get better, than the south dakota schools gauntlet
averaging 400 fans it looks like (500 vs uni, 700 vs montana and Ill assume 200 vs Dickinson St since gobison didnt even post it)
Yes, Ryan had a poor day. Reneya was the best offensively, & Kadie didn't play.
You're Heavens' biggest fan so maybe you should ask her about her shot selection?
The school up north has a better record right now than the Bison.
As for the SD trip, I'll quote a friend, "they'll get spanked".
Too much one on one crap. We've only hit 10 assists like once all year. Most games we have like 5. We're not talented enough to play that style of ball and the players aren't taking their game to the next level. We're probably 1 or 2 recruiting classes away
great job paper.. they played on sunday?

VERMILLION, S.D. — North Dakota State's offense went nowhere in the second and third quarters and South Dakota blasted the Bison 65-38 on Sunday at the Sanford Coyote Sports Complex.
No thread about the Omaha game. Bison lose by 14. 54-68.
Coyotes beat the Jacks 65 - 42 today. Jacks score 5 in second and 5 in third!
NDSU was down a bunch in the 1st half, Omaha shot 56.5% NDSU 26.5% in the first half, to much for NdSu to recover from
Lose to UST? Wth.
Yeah this team is turning into garbage. Last year must have been an illusion. Good luck with SDSU if you can't beat a D3 school with D1 true freshmen recruits. Yeah I know it's a huge deal for them because they cant make the playoffs, but that just means we really don't have much pride.
Thought Jory had them heading in the right direction but the wheels seem to be falling off.
They seem to be missing the energy on the court they had last year.
I think Jory has keen watching Richman tapes...it seems like the same kind of basketball: just stale, no movement, drive into the lane recklessly then turn it over, then try to live by the 3 kind of basketball.
Do they not teach shot fakes anymore in basketball when driving to the hoop? In both men's and women's hoops, I can count multiple times every game where this would have benefited the person with the ball.
Bison beat W Illinois 63 to 55.
LOL ^^^ he just started.
since this is on ESPN+ i watch a bit, Heaven needs to score more in my opinion. she's such a great passer, but ndsu needs points. they have their hands full with the UMKC center she is incredible.
ps- easy to spot Roadwarrior in the sea of green seats, props to that man!!
Women give up double digit lead in the 4th and end up losing...sounds awfully familiar, huh boys? Well the game over there isn't over yet, but when you let a team chuck 21 unanswered points on ya, that can't end well.
Women win 74-70
Good win today. Got owned inside but played better overall.
Bison fall to Jacks 76 to 60.
800 fans tonight better than the 408 vs USD Thurs. or the 202 the game b4 that.
just brutal.
Who ever is in charge of promoting should be canned. The TV commercial with Dan Michaels voice is NOT WORKING the week of a home game and must cost an arm and a leg from WDAY. Its about as bad as listening to Doug Lier on KFGO rip the Beatles on every morning rewind show and then Lier acts like the most knowledgeable DNR person to live on earth when he only worked for game n fish for a cup of coffee in time length. WTH. Lets try reduced ticket prices like $5 for the first 500 fans. The players need the energy a home crowd can bring but all they are playing in front of is mom n pa plus the pepband and I was at some games in December with no band........
Really, looking back at the Ruley years NDSU lead the nation in D2 attendance and it was in the 2500 range average per home game. So todays numbers are only 10 to 20 percent of that, think about it!!!
Get off the revenue focus ticket office people and lets focus on getting MORE PEOPLE THERE even if you hand out free tickets. Lets get to some big Fgo highschools, elementary & middle schools and hand out free tickets at girls games or at girl scout, brownies and big sister meetings... DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT for pete's sake. Feature Jory Collins asking fans to attend or Amy Ruley, DO SOMETHING. At this point in the season the players deserve better and we have really good players and good coaches so let push for more fans!

Bring back the Bison Buddy program. Have the young kids playing youth basketball want to come to the games because they get free stuff. People don't realize or remember how big of a program was in the day with Erv Inniger and Kyle from Stop n Go leading the charge.
Have a elementary school day, middle school day, aau day, travel team day. Give them all free tickets and make the money on the concessions. If its a good game they will want to come back.
Go into the schools. Do coaches visit the schools? That is how Craig helped rebuild the football base. Being everywhere.
Nice to see the Summit League has a chance at being a two bid league again…Quote:

Agree totally with the promotion ideas for youth basketball and more press and appearances by the coaches even if they wear a mask… this damn pandemic has likely messed the public appearance effort but it’s time to move on and live your lives. We need more sports, less news and non drama class people doing the weather. Our student athletes need more support and noise from the fans!
I was a bison buddy and I also won the stop n go ball kid of the game or whatever and I got to go into the locker room and have the team sign a ball. It was for the men's team but the point is the same, as a kid I felt like Bison basket was for me. They did something right to make me feel like they thought I was important.

My nephew was a Bizun buddy years ago still talks about it every time we go to a game, which is usually the bunny game
Need to start passing out those white and yellow stop-n-go basketballs like candy on halloween again.
Bison @ Omaha- Bison win 69-53.
Great win by our ladies team!! Keep it up gals you rock! Congratulations to the coaches, players and parents!
Random thoughts. Bison controlled the first 3 quarters, Omaha the last one. The usual bugaboo (turnovers) 18 by the Bison. Omaha had good production by their bench. K.D. didn't play; hurt, sick, or doghouse? Omaha is also suffering low attendance, just like the Bison.
