  1. So it "wasn't in the budget".  It kind of reads like the athletic department didn't think they'd ever win

    Someone has to have a better plan than just an "oh well".

    Is it in the budget for this year?  NO, seriously . . . is it?

    Why would you test your team?

    You have team rules.
    You expect your guys to abide by them, don't you? 

    I find situations like this not only an NCAA rules violation but a breech of trust. 

    Not to point out the obvious, but human beings aren't always so trustworthy.

    They shoplift from local sporting goods stores, they sell illegal drugs, they say they'll play and then don't show up . . .

  3. UND vs Drake a few years ago . . . was supposed to be a cake walk.

    Drake came out to play, slapped UND in the face a few times and tried to make a game of it.

    UND won, but we all shook our heads a bit and wondered what the hell just happened.

    Its there, but it is black, so it blends in with the rest of the black part of the logo.  

    On the UNDSPORTS page, the ND are black, so the neck stripe is changed out to green . . . at least you can see it.

    Leaving it black and letting it just blend into the black ND is a bad call. (graphic designer by trade)

  5. So the linebacker situation is shifting a bit again it seems?  Haas is solid . . . Noah is making himself known.

    Any idea Where Disterhaupt will land when game one comes around?  Haven't head much about Jade, either.

    Those two were solid at OLB last year and I was hoping to see those two pair up for some "Sack City" fun this season.

    As an analogy, and for the old timers on here, this team can be the 1985 Chicago Bears.  Studsrud can be our version of Jim Mcmahon.  It should work out well..............

    Agreed.  Some of the most accomplished NFL qb's weren't know as much for their arm strength or speed as they were for game management and . . . just getting the wins.

    Not sure how I feel about them being all black, maybe they will grow on me.  

    Marching band . . . black uniforms . . . i bet they're glad the football team plays indoors.  Setting in the sun in a black band uniform = no fun.

    Glad they get to sport some new uni's, though.  I can only image what kind of shape the old ones were in.

  8. I truly don't think anyone on here is judge the kid.

    Grady-gate is just part of the off season talk . . . and that's why we're on this forum, yes?

    Moving on, though, I loved Teeder's practice updates in the past.  Good stuff!

    So, should we know around 11 if everyone has reported or not?

    Anyone in particular you're wondering about;)

    We're probably all wondering.

  10. Santiago returning kicks . . . has to happen.  He's more dangerous there than he in as a running back, in my opinion.  Get him in space

    with some room to scope out the field and that's where he shines.  Luckily, UND has a good stable of running backs so it's not such a risk.

    ok guys, realistic thoughts. How much does the loss of Harris for UND AND the addition of Carrington for Utah impact this game. We have some depth at corner, but anyone we thing will be able to keep this guy in check, or at least limit his production?

    It'll be the first game, so I'm hoping they won't be clicking on all cylinders yet. I also expect UND to dial up pressure up front and get to the QB; can't let him have time to find his targets. Safety becomes extremely important now, because if I remember right it was blown safety coverage one 1, if not 2, TDs last year at bowling green that cost us the game.

    I'd like to think we will keep the run game in check, but the missing on a deep pass always makes me nervous. Can we just move the game from Aug 31 to July 31?

     

    well . . . it doesn't help.

    Our O line has 4 starters who played high school football last season? 

    Yep . . . and their sisters are the d backs.  I'm pretty sure there's a kid in a wheelchair kicking extra points, too.

    Misinformation is a good thing;)

  13. #22 and #5 will both graduate in the same year.  By the time Gordon gets to his senior year . . . eyes will be on UND RB's.

    He'll be in a good spot.  And let's be honest, the "next man up" scenarios arise quite often.
