Tweets of the day - UND suspends four captains





If you weren't on the internet or a had smart phone today - then you probably haven't noticed the UND Hockey team was making news off of the ice this morning and this is a collection of some of the tweets that I found worthy of being posted for all to see.



@Bruce Ciskie the voice the Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs was the voice of reason this morning as this incident broke and of course Drunk Hockey Guy wasn't buying any of it this morning.

McFeely on the Travis Beck incident.


It's too easy... This is a snap shot of KFGO 790 A.M. radio talk show host Mike McFeely and his twitter feed today. You can see that McFeely broke down the Travis Beck incident pretty well. As most of you know NDSU's Football team has had a few of their players get into trouble with the law. If you have been reading the Fargo and Grand Forks newspapers or watching the local news you will see that the NDSU Football players are making the news on and off of the football field.



For the UND football fans that went to school during the 1990's you probably can still remember - this is kind of reminiscent of the Rocky Hagler days when he has the head coach of the NDSU Bison and they too had fair number of players that got in trouble with the law - just like Craig Bohl's players have this past year and into the summer. It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the coming days and weeks. I am sure that Craig Bohl will probably say that this is a whole lot to do about nothing.





People can say why does it matter - here is the problem - Craig Bohl knew that the petition fraud charges were coming down on 10 his players and the could have ended all of this with simply suspending his players for their game against RMU and this would have been over. Instead head coach Craig Bohl and the Athletic director choose to say this.


“There are not going to be any suspensions,” Taylor emphatically said after the game. “These kids don’t deserve a suspension. I’m not going to suspend them and neither is Craig (head coach Craig Bohl). As far as we are concerned, it is over.”
By making comments like this Bohl is actually putting his program under the scope - so just when the head coach thought maybe this would pass a the Travis Beck incident just compounds what happened last weekend.

Few things before bed...



Like him or hate him - Mick McFeely of KFGO radio out of Fargo, ND says some interesting things and with this tweet he nailed it. Dennis Anderson of the Star and Tribune also touched on this subject as well.

Also, I will be doing some writing for the Hockey Writers as well - as an NCAA hockey writers. This was posted on twitter as well tonight - I will be doing some writing for Inside Hockey but also the Hockey Writers as well. This blog will still be here as well.
