    I would have never imagined this many people were involved in Tech's marketing and website maintenance/productions with the quality of their athletic websites and video feeds.

      I would LOVE to see a video feed that doesn't suck...
      MTU Hockey fan since I was carried to a game in 1986 - for those counting... that's a lot of depressing hockey. Still love it.

        They're not great, but I would say UND's and UAA's video feeds aren't too bad. And UAA's is free.

        Also, several of the schools I'm thinking of that use the B2 network aren't horrible, but they're better than ours. It just sucks that ours is the worst.

          I meant that as I would love to see Tech's video feed not suck. The majority of the others are no way near as bad as ours, it is absolutely awful. And being stuck in Wisconsin... I'd love to be able to watch the games...

            The video feed has got to improve, no question. It's basically unwatchable, which is ridiculous for the $60/year they charge for it. I canceled it last summer and won't consider it again until I know they've upgraded the camera system.

I'd argue that going back just 3-4 years with a trip to the final five, MTU wasn't exactly failing. Not succeeding, but there are plenty of other D2 schools in the WCHA with whom Tech should be able to compete. In fact, with the departure of Minnesota and Wisconsin the WCHA is full of schools at a similar level to Tech with North Dakota and Denver being the only D1 schools (I didn't bother looking this up, so I might be wrong, but the general point remains valid).
                FYI, UNO is D1 now also.

Granted they made the NCAA's (autobid?) but I don't think it's coincidence that from the conference they have come from, they have only won one game. From every level I have witnessed, increasing your quality of competition during the season only helps you during the post season. I have nothing wrong with them wanting to remain status quo but stating from an outside perspective that a team is losing (and infers that team will continue to lose) because of demoralization from overwhelming opponents is a bit misconstrued IMO.

                    Yeah, and they all dedicate all of their efforts towards athletics. In reality only a few of them even touch anything athletic.

                        They're now transitioning to D1 now, after selling out their football and wrestling teams.

                          With them ignored it's not too bad...
