How did you find the Dog Pound?
I've always been rather interested in this. We occasionally get new people, Football moms, Players, or Loyal fans. I like when we get more people, as to me, it seems that if they participate on this board, then they will continue to be apart of the Huskie Family. A big part of being a fan is getting to celebrate with your friends, and I think this board really helps with that - or at least for me since I live in Kansas, now.
How I found the board:
For years I was an NIU fan, and the only way for me to get my 'fix,' was to read articles relating to the Football team, and players. That's how I stumbled upon this thread: (Nissan Heisman voting...)

My roommate freshman year in college was a big Huskie fan and I saw him browsing the forums one day.

I didn't actually attend NIU (family has). Do a lot of students know about the board, or is it only a select few?

From Facebook, there was the rumor that Western Michigan was going to forfeit the game last year. I didn't believe it, I wanted a link to confirm and it brought me here.

I think only a very few know about it. I found it as a student by a google search of NIU Forum.

Do you think that if you didn't find the board you would be less of an NIU enthusiast?

RE: How did you find the Dog Pound?
Somewhere around 2004 or 2003. Can't remember how. Probably doing some sort of on line search for an NIU article. Pre-Maryland game.
Yes, this board helps because it keeps you connected. MOst of my friends who graduated back in the day with me unfortunately did not follow NIU sports much.
