Longtime fan

Sfi reporting commit #3.....big time defensive player!

Not sure if we have but he is a talented young man! Like Teeder mentioned, he does have an offer from la tech. I also really like Leif bungum. Great hudl tape. Need to get these local recruits locked up!

Great news. Welcome noah!!!

Now it's on to his classmate......Parker rickert! Hope we can reel him as well.

Yes!! In bubba we trust!!!!

Have to agree with that. 3 weeks off without competition for competitive young men seems like a long time! However, I like the idea if we make the playoffs without a seed.

Mussman put the perception and reality of und football straight in the toilet! Bubbas finally above the water but the d1 transition has been brutal. I guess the perception of und football is " prove your worth" before being recognized. The reality is that they will prove it this year

I think that sounds about right in pre season polls. I will add that it's the end of the season polls that matter and they will be either straight out champ or co champs!!

Und can't hang with bowling green!?!? You kidding me! They could very well wipe up on und or und could wipe up them. But to say unquestionably that und simply can not "hang" is flat out ?????? Get a grip

We will agree to disagree. Were not playing an Oregon, Baylor......it's bowling green. Would you rather test it against an NAIA team??? Very winnable game against a team that on skilled position wise lost nearly everyone and a new coaching staff

I don't think you need to avoid them, I think you need to keep testing your weaknesses. If und is fortunate enough to make the playoffs, being tested during the regular season will only help for that style of play. We already know und is great against run.

Just looked at their roster to see who I was thinking of, it was Teo redding, a 6'1" 165 junior last year. Strictly a "go" route runner.

Bgsu welcomes back a load of experience on the o line. It will be a great test to our d line. I would expect Bgsu to completely underestimate our OLBs resulting in jawon and disterhuapt having career days. Just a hunch

congrats to them! I was thinking maybe taubenheim deserved kicker first team as well

Can't remember the wrs name but when you lead the nation in passing yards there is a chance someone will return with decent numbers. Seems like he is 6'3" skinny burner? One thing und has going for them is they play ohio st the week before. letdown? I would guess so, going from ohio st to North Dakota.

Und can definitely beat them.

Loose almost the entire wr crew and most of the secondary. Return the most experienced o line in the nation however. Most total starts. I think that LB is Alvarez? Watched him a few times last year as a sophomore and he was impressive as was their massive d line.

Agreed. MAC isn't that good necessarily. However, I'm basing my conclusion on the little time the 5 up front have had together as a group and the fact they're home. I went back and forth with this one and truly believe und can win and won't be surprised if they do.

I believe your right

Fbs transfers : 1). Tillman - Houston- one year starter and currently playing cfl 2) Clive- Arizona- current senior. Should be the go to guy his year at wr. Showed some big potential last year and in spring ball 3) jordan- minnesota- Loved the way he played! Mean streak. Quit. 4) jahmere- miss st- played a lot of minutes last and looked real good in spring ball. Quit 5) baker- New Mexico- current sophomore. Played sparingly last year looking for more mins this year. 6) Arrington- uab- didn't play, injured 7) tucker?- Kansas- practiced for awhile then quit. fcs transfer : noah- sac st- current senior and a standout on d. Juco: 1) boas- had a very good 2 year career. 2) jawon- current senior and looks like a stud this spring. Could have a big year. 3). Arnell- current junior. Started last year and was cheap shotted out of his inaugural season early. 4) cerrintino- played a lot of mins at wr 5) reed- current senior wr. Injuries have derailed him 6)Simmons - rb that was injured 1st game. Quit 7). Domo- practiced for awhile then quit. 8) camy- quit 9) hannible- quit 10) Dijon- will be a junior this, hasn't played a down That's the ones I can think of

1-1 10344 17-10 W vs Stony ( Def, def, def and more d). 24-28 L vs bgsu ( bgsu gets a td under a min) Potato bowl: the o line finally starts to gel and the offense starts to click, additionally they get a nice 12th man for their first home game. beat the yotes 38-27

As am I

I'm excited as well! Especially with news that Grady is on the roster!! The o line, once they mesh, could potentially be one of the best in the fcs. Stockwell, Bell, Aplin, Grady and Taylor......wow!!!! Just wow!! Aplin in my only question mark here as I haven't seen him enough to know for sure what he has. Grady and demon on one side almost seems like cheating! Lol. Bubba has done an amazing job in 2-3 years. He knows the games are won in the trenches and has loaded up the o line and d line with talent!! Very young talented men with game time experience = exciting! If I had to nit pick one thing, it would be the lack of recruiting a proven qb that's scholarship worthy. Keaton obviously is good and fits the und mold but it became very apparent that when he was out it spells trouble. Bartles? Nope! Heidelbaugh? No clue? Playing in ND 9 man is quite different then d1. For many reasons I hope he is the answer. That's all we have. Unless out of dire necessity, I suppose mollberg could sneak back in there? They did bring in bolinkse as a pwo. A whole hell of a lot of questions marks there. I have always felt the most important position in football requires a minimum 4 schollys on the roster. To many unknowns happen during the course of the year and/or offseason. Keaton is a senior next year and Bartles is gone. They needed a scholarship qb in this years class. Add to that, there is only one on the radar so far for the "17" recruiting class.

DE is loaded! Noah improved every week last year. Actually thought he was the best DE at the end of the year. Leading the way are two juniors , Greeley and Dranka, that have started since they were true freshman. Cieslak has huge potential going into his Sophmore year. I could see carrothers moving to nose and making room for bennett. Bennett is going to be special. Had it not been for the injury he would of had his shirt pulled last year. Engwall plays with an attitude and has looked impressive the little I've seen of him. A lot of experience yet very young as only 2 seniors here. Tank anchors the line and now a sophomore he has some experience. Big boy that stuffs the middle. Difficult to block. Sophmore Greer played as a true freshman but never really noticed him. Both sophomores Love the OLB, they are extremely athletic and FAST!! Jawon, disterhuapt and labat. Labat will be in his 3rd year in the starting role. I'm thinking jawon will be most improved player on the team, the guy is a flat out baller!! A converted safety, he uses his speed terrifically adding that aggressive full tilt attitude and nature. I'm just as impressed with disterhuapt. Will love watching those two on the field at the same time. ILB scares me a bit. Not sure how tajs knee will be. If healthy he is a stud. O brien has experience and looked good last year as does Bakker, but not quite sold on them yet. Hearing good things on Rodgers. Just to many unknowns to feel comfortable here. Cb will still be very young but slowly gaining experience. There is definitely talent but they can not afford injuries. Deion will be in his 3rd year as starting cb and had 12 BU last year. Tyus is back as the other starter. I'm hearing he might not be full health yet? Lost JIS. Carter seems capable enough. The two true freshman, Torrey and Evan have serous talent and need to showcase immediately ! No seniors Cole needs to remain healthy.....stud stud stud! Palmborg played last year as a true fresh, gaining playing experience and looked fantastic in spring ball. Arnell started last year but I have a hunch palmborg slides into his starting role. Arnell is good, just hope he can come back from his injury. Vashon has some talent but unproven. No seniors grades: DE: A+ NOSE: C+ OLB: A ILB: B- CB: C S: B Bubba ball starts with the d and this year should be no exception.

Good for you. I think fans from "rival" schools have no business going to the rivals forum board that their team isn't involved in.
