Love the optimism, but sadly, I don't see the "JackBoys" not winning it. They just have a lot of talent and experience coming back. Sorry to be a wet blanket. As was the case last year, there should be some level of parity and unknown commodities in new players, so who knows? I'd love to be proven wrong.
Also, please stop abusing your apostrophes. I realize the irony of that statement, after our University famously failed to edit a billboard properly. I simply can't condone either case.

Its actually a good idea. No doubt. I hope something like this survives after this season, when the pandemic is no longer a hurdle. Although it would be nice for other teams to participate, too, rather than just playing each Dakota team 3 or 4 times in a season. Maybe we could do a Horizon League/Summit League non-con tournament with the 4 Dakota teams and four of the former Midcontinent/Summit teams, like Green Bay, Milwaukee, IUPUI, Oakland, etc. The Pentagon has hosted a handful of Summit non-conference games over the past few years for USD and SDSU. Why not just do one big event for all four?

Exactly, a Summit/Horizon challenge. or a Summit/MVC challenge would really pack in the fans!

Rapid City's new arena will be completed by next basketball season. Would like to see some form of Dakota Challenge with the Summit Dakota schools and either the Big Sky or Mountain West. I believe the existing arena will stay on sight as well, so perhaps you could use both arena's and have both men & women's games.

I think it would be a great idea for the USD basketball teams to play a double header in the Hills every season, especially seeing the players that we presently have rostered who are from Rapid. Pretty sure the Duffys and McLeod would have loved playing in front of a home town crowd too.

I'd be very pleased with USD going 2-1 in the tournament. Our roster is just so different this year. It is hard to foresee us not having some growing pains early on. This will more likely be a good opportunity to evaluate how our newbies respond to solid conference level competition.

Lady Yotes beat SD School of Mines at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center Ice Arena in the fall of 2013 81-49. Margaret McLeod would have played but her grandmother had just passed away.
Coyote men also played WY there and lost by 1. A 3/4 court inbound pass to Tyler Flack and shot at the buzzer was off the rim.
Both games were very well attended.
Would be great to have a Coyote tournament in RC annually or as often as possible!!

Larry Nance Jr. had a monster dunk in that game that he has since replayed quite a few times in the NBA.

Yes, I think that is likely true. He even abused the same apostrophe in the thread title on Bisonville (never use apostrophes for plural!). Not a revelation, as I think this was mentioned before. Not sure if I read that here or there.
Although Lakes has quite the reputation on multiple fan boards, including Bisonville, all I have seen here is some good-natured, entertaining takes. Maybe others have had a different experience. Any discussion is better than the silence we sometimes get in the off-season (or when COVID creates more off-season) IMHO.

It is a very uneven start to the season for most teams for whatever reason. (It is very strange to me how some teams seem to be in mid-season form and some teams are out of shape and don't seem to know the names of the other players.) Anyway, SDSU is off to a great start, so I checked their non-conference schedule to see if an at-large is in the works (spoiler alert - it isn't). There are a few more games to be played, but heading into this MTE, here are the records: SDSU 3-2 NDSU 0-3 UND 0-3 USD 0-3 Oof.

I see it this way
SDSU 3-0 NDSU 1-2 USD 1-2 UND 1-2
If any of the bottom 3 spoil that I see NDSU at 2-1 and one of UND or USD at 0-3. There is a big gap between SDSU and the rest of the field. NDSU is probably the 2nd best team and than another gap down to UND and USD which to me is a draw to which is the third best team.
