On X when you click on a player's profile, it tells you how many people who you also follow, follow this person. It could be UND coaches, media, fan accounts, other players that have been offered. I do think there's a correlation with the large the #, the more interest. On the flip side, there are guys who have been offered that have a very low number. I think you could effectively cross those guys off as viable targets. Also, if there's a commitment, look for a spike and that's the guy. Here's the current Top 11.

The next 24 hours would seem to be when we'll see a lot of action. Logically, if a player wants to leave, I think they would have done it already. For players that would fall into the roster management portal exits, it also doesn't make sense for either party to wait any longer. *I know full well, there will be impactful players that will still be entering (hopefully not at UND, but in general), just doesn't make sense why they would wait.

Schmidt did not tweet that one out prior, so had nothing to compare the delay to.

Here's the lag time between when Schmidt has posted vs player posting. It definitely varies. I wouldn't think anything of the delay normally, still don't, but given the impact of this one, I do understand being more impatient than you normally would. I would still think we'd hear something today. Player we are waiting on: 1.5 days Goihl: Less than an hour Woods: Day Stein: Few hours Rohl: 3 Days Hendrickson: --

Has the 1883 x Jackson set up any type of meet and greet type of fundraiser? The real difference makers, you're going to have to seek out. I am so disappointed, not in the 1883 guys, but in the coaching staff. Up to this point, a complete lack of effort. The NDSU coaching staff is active in their collective. You need to have meet ups. Fundraisers. Nobody is going to the website and donate 250k or more. I do get tired of reading how UND has no $ to compete. Complete lack of effort. Need Jackson to step up. *Clearly, it's still early in the Jackson era, but you'd think this would be a top priority* Note: The 1883 collective sent out a note a few days ago asking for help on the Women's side (especially W-Bball). This was the first time they sent out a note like that. Never been a mass communication on their end either that they need more $ to compete in the hockey world.

In this day and age, the official announcement from the player depends on how long the commitment graphic takes. Usually a day or two delay from when the coaching staff tweets about it.

I don't know what's going on here. Look at the Reposted by for the biggest clue.

No, he committed last night. Not sure how you read it any other way.

Funny you brought up Buhr as well. I think I've found a "tell" on social media. Only two current offers that are uncommitted have it. Wunderlich and Buhr. We're ready to cross Wunderlich off the uncommitted column. Is Buhr next?

Reposting this in what we believe is the right thread. If this is who we think it is (99% sure). Big deal.

Based on some social media tells, this is the heavy, heavy favorite. Would be, I mean all sign are pointing towards it, a massive commit. Imo, would have ranked him as my #1 in my hope they commit wishlist.

If you're the GM, what's the ideal # of players UND would have enter the Spring portal? Clearly, cannot lose any starters or ideally, anyone on the two-deep. Are we thinking the lower the better? 5 to 7 range seems ideal to me. That mixed with some of the guys that left the program prior to spring ball (ex: Teiken), gives you 10 spots to add. Looking what's happening to USD, seems like an incredibly pivotal time.
