Been saying this for a while now, but if this team can learn to play better team defense, they will be really good.
Listening to the game on the radio, it seemed like they fouled a Wyoming...
This opportunity is a gift from heaven especially for a young team that did not finish strong.
The main thing is that our guys have a chance to play against competition that are perceived better...
Touche - I guess it was ignorance on my part for not understanding your drift.
The financial benefit to NDSU certainly outweighs any other perceived benefit by fans outside of the Summit...
Obvioulsly this guy needs to research what the NCAA Basketball Tournament means to its member schools financially.
Here is a paragraph from the article: All due credit to ORU; they belong in the...
One thing is for sure about comparing the 2009 tourney. The Bison beat a tremendous team in Oakland that year. WIU's team this year was no where comparable. I don't think many would argue this...
The Jacks defense wasn't the story of the game because WIU will frequently score in the 50's while the Jacks usually score in the 70's.
The Jacks did play a good defensive game but for someone...
Does anyone on these boards watch the defensive side of the game? Comments about it being a poor game or Wolters not being able to take over etc. This game was a WIU defensive clinic.
Wolters...
The season ending melt down will be the spark that will ignite the motivation needed to succeed next season.
Saul and his staff should have no trouble pushing everyone of their players to...
Any team that can hold a very good offensive team like ORU to 53 points is certainly capable of beating SDSU. WIU was #1 in scoring defense in the league by a full 6 points.
There will be a lot...
As I have mentioned on these boards before, A teams (And Coaches) success on almost any team you can think of relys very heavily on its point guard. As I look at this Bison team, I see nothing but...
It is a minor or scratch that, a major miracle that Tim Miles and now Saul Phillips were able to recruit players to NDSU good enough to be competitive with that BSA dump. It is truly a D1 College...
Is Greg Kampe all of a sudden a poor coach? Is Matta at OSU all of a sudden a poor coach for losing several games recently? No, for whatever reason, the players on these two teams have been very...
Basketball is a game where everyone makes mistakes during games, including coaches and referees. Let them work through them.
I guess the point in the Dungy case is no matter how good an NFL...
Ya, then low and behold, they win with Dungy at Indy and all of a sudden he is a great coach and the players weren't the problem at Tampa Bay? No this Bison staff knows what to do, the players have...
Your right Silk, its not good that the fan base is not happy but it is not right to lay all the blame on this coaching staff. How stupid can you be when you say the Woodside era guys were playing on...
Message board posters or anyone else sitting in the stands or broadcasting a game are entitled to their opinions. That is part of what makes sports fun in general, being the Monday morning if you...
Discussions like this should never take place until a season is over. Could be a lot of crow eaten once the 2011-12 Summit League Tournament is played.
Reading these posts, several have talked about the defense of this current team and several about the Woodside era.
We all have to remember that while Saul did not recruit the Fab 4, he was...
Boy, If Saul is taking this this much heat for a 16 and 10 team at this point of the season, the fans at Oakland must be getting a noose ready for Kampe. Having said that, the team defense at SDSU...
Instead of where a Bison team finishes in the conference each year, a bench mark to be successful for any team in any conference in the country is to win its home games and split on the road.

For a Division One basketball program sitting in the middle of virtual wasteland for D1 high school prospects and maybe a facility that ranks in the bottom 10% of all D1 arena's in the country, I...
I thought for the most part, Braun and whoever was guarding Morrison really contested shots pretty well. He hit serveral running jump shots and floaters in traffic over out stretched hands. That is...
Granted ORU has more weapons than SDSU but both times the Bison have played ORU this year, Morrison shot a very high percentage. He shoots sub 50% and Bison win those games. Morrison is however a...
The thing to remember about the Summit League tournament is that both ORU and SDSU rely heavily on their two stars, Morrison and Wolters to win ball games. Other than those two players, the Bison...
With all the offensive issues discussed, I still think this team will score enough points to win most games. The help and recover issues on the defensive end is what needs to be solved by tournament...
