If Bob doesn't want to deal with a hyper-engaged parent that means he has too many on the plate already. How many of their divas from Edina/sw suburbs are the kids of alumni?

Three high schools in three years. Would be great to see some stability in Fargo from him for the next few years.

He chose us over Omaha and Augustana! We reign supreme on I-29

Unlocked for the occasion. Worth a read. https://neutralzone.com/2024/07/31/ncaa-prospects-august-1-watchlist/

Miami got him

Two pretty much expected commits by younger siblings in Hage to Michigan and Plante to Duluth.

Beuker and Hextall are the remaining ones in the top ten I'm holding out hope for. Berchild would be an incredible coup. Someday Schloss will end up doing a where are they now? on a five year old Aug 1 list and it'll be interesting to see. Lots of section 8 and Moorhead kids announced for elite league, some prospects there too no doubt.

If we don't, there will be whiners here! Anyone with a good adviser and multiple offers they are entertaining should be waiting for the schools to roll out the red carpet on official visits.

Limiting the roster size is not a good change.

While they don't reference hockey, it's a safe assumption full scholarships for the entire roster will be available soon. https://lsutigerswire.usatoday.com/2024/07/24/ncaa-expected-to-approve-expanded-scholarship-limits-in-college-sports/

I know, he's a SK kid but is eligible for NTDP in a similar fashion to BC resident EJ Emery.

Beuker is interesting; he is eligible for NTDP and lists Portland as his hometown because his mom is from here and met his dad when he played for the Winterhawks. Someone at beer league said they divorced and she's back in town.

He mentions Kane Johnson in the article.

LaDue to the S, Wilkie to the K

Or boot St Thomas early.

Just looked up the draft order, Fargo didn't have a pick until 26 and he was picked with the 20th. Slick move on Sioux City's part to turn a second round pick into first and second round picks in the future.

What have you heard about Lindberg and O'Neill after their first year with NTDP? Just a guess but Wyatt Cullen will probably not be as easy a pull as these three were.

My recollection is this board was more critical of Spicer and agent/family/etc than Berry, especially with Ryder Donovan as an example fresh in everyone's mind.

Sounds like he wasn't ready for college, and not just the game. Brad Berry right now:

Friend of a friend who grew up on Summit Ave said it's because some of the most influential families in MN live right there and have for generations. The James J. Hill house literally backs up to 35E right as the slowdown starts.

Brock Nelson, Derek Forbort and JBD on initial rosters.

Blue chips out of GTMA that go the college route never go west of Ann Arbor. Can't think of any at WI or MN either.

Recruiting against a school that is circling the drain shouldn't be tough.
