This is accurate. 360 thought they have probably 5 spots left in the class, which is 1/3 of the total. The offers out right now are to very good prospects, have to get the ball rolling here soon though.

They haven't. It's two completely conflicting scenarios. NDSU to me would be the only team (FCS) that UND could be playing at home, where my confidence level is where it's at. Like I mentioned, it has nothing to do with talent levels. On paper it should be a good game. Until they show up, just once, I can already picture how it's going to start out and play out. Nobody wants to be more wrong than me.

Embarrassing discussion honestly.

Until proven otherwise, I have to go with NDSU in a blowout. I think this years UND team is really good, that with playing at home it should be competitive, but this is the type of game where UND has fallen flat on their face over and over. Hope I’m proven wrong.

It would be crazy to me if they didn’t try to get all of their top targets on campus that weekend.

It wasn’t listed. Just speculation, but you would think that weekend would be for a more select group. Special invite. Current commits and your “A” level prospects. What we’ve seen on Twitter I’m sure the Coaching Staff sent to hundreds of prospective recruits (both from this year as well as future years).

I took it as they read their pre-season press clippings (as a Top 10 team) and aren’t as focused as they should be. Issues they are having are almost all not being 100% locked in.

He played against Drake, which I took that as he’s either 100% or as close as you can get.

I wouldn’t look too much on the playing time against Drake. The leading tackler was Petigo (who did look good!). I don’t know KK’s injury is, but I’m saying it is a possibility that if they were playing anyone else he could have played. 100% Canady is working himself back and Fort is still learning the position. What’s exciting is they should both improve every week.

Loved reading it. Concerning issues that SHOULD be easy to correct. 360’s / Miller’s comments which were harsh I think could be a really good thing. Media is not pumping their tires.

Turner? Did he get hurt against Drake?

Last thing on 360’s comment. Three components to the game. I’m not saying that shutting out Drake is a huge accomplishment, but what could you really pick apart defensively? His comment was directly tied to the Drake game. Special Teams, I don’t think anything really stuck out (again, only looking at Drake game). I guess we’ll find out in a few hours.

Boy does Kason Kelley really look the ILB part. He made one play that looked really impressive too. I know he’s on the 2-Deep, would like to see him get more and more reps.

Very curious on Kelly’s take. The 2017 comparison on the surface doesn’t make sense, since that appeared to be a byproduct of half the starters being injured.

Same

Safety? With Canady working his way back, I wouldn’t call it thin. Canady, Galvin, KK, Coley, Fort. Seems to be as deep as it’s ever been in the D1 era.

5th was fumble off the shot gun snap between Fenton / Feeney.

This game had about 100% disapproval rating. Was this almost all based on turnovers? Clearly an issue this game, but also seems like an easily correctable issue, especially who was at fault for them. Comparative scores, but the Hawks won by as many points as Montana State the week prior, that’s with giving away those points due to turnovers. Doesn’t seem as bad to me as most are making it sound.

I’ll go with this too.

No, he has a handful of G5 offers, Wyoming, Nevada, Utah State.

Any potential recruits going to do a game time visit this weekend?

@jdub27 you don’t buy in at all that the outcome of the USU game will affect attendance at all? I might be completely off, but I even look here. I truly believe there would be much more discussion if they had won / kept it within a respectable final score. I can only speak for myself, but I know my excitement level took a huge hit with that result. Here will come the down votes, but there are certain games and within those games certain runaway results that I think really hurt momentum for this program. The good news is there’s another one of those rare games in a few weeks. Things can get right back on track really quick.

I agree.

• Injury Free • Back ups in for the 4th quarter This game won’t be close, but it is important that the starters put in a dominant effort. Go into the bye week feeling good, USU in the rear view. Need a confident unit going into NDSU week.
