    Too bad, really wish this would have worked out, but obviously it was not working. NDSU would have finished in the bottom half of the NSIC.

    Good question, but the real question would the new coach welcome her back?
    No real reason for the dismissal was given but either party.

    someone is going to inherit a complete dumpster fire, hopefully someone with some ambition that has talent sees this as an opportunity to prove themselves.

    Calm down.

    I am NOT saying they shouldn't have let her go. With what the program is at and their record she should have been let go long ago. As I said earlier; I was simply commenting on imabison's remark about "what does it matter." It does matter.

    So much potential here for ticket revenue. Back in the hey days, we would average between 2 and 3 k per game. Now were lucky to get 500. The Summit is set up perfectly for good attendance with rivals like UND, USD, and SDSU all a short drive. If we can put a good product on the floor, some good revenue potential. Would help to play some double headers

    They did this year but would kick you out after the women's game. I skipped the women's game despite the doubleheader. Maybe if the product get better then I am all in for twin bill.

    Kicked out, poor term, you are asked to go to the north or south lobby for about 30 minutes. Not outside, they learned after the first year. Just a roped off area and reopened 1 hours prior to mens game.

    Maybe a little harsh, yes you got to stay in the building.

    I was done early with my things I needed to do while in town and I went to the SHAC early. The womens game had like 3 minutes left to play and it was close. I thought well I will go in and catch the end of the game. Yes I did not have a ticket for the womens game. I asked the ticket boy if I could go in and caught the last 3 minutes of the game. He said no since I did not have a ticket. He was correct, but since there was only 3 minutes left and only 300 people in there I did not see the big deal. So I turned around and went out to the pickup and listened to Bison 1660 for the final minutes of the game.

    Agree thats a bit harsh, but the ticket guy would not have been there if it not been a doubleheader. I can see your point, but if he took you ticket you could not have gotten back in for the mens game. Caught between a rock and a hard place you were...
