Its been so quiet on here and I am missing some hoops talk! I over heard the coaches talking last week about going after one more piece for the upcoming season. I kind of forgot we had one more scholarship. Any inside info on who they are looking at or if you think they will use it?

If those people are already going to Fargo any ways how would that affect Altru? Grand Forks is big enough for two hospitals in my opinion.

If we had a Sanford hospital here those people would not need to go to Fargo and we have a large Canadian population that we could draw from.

Totally agree that Grand Forks is big enough to handle to hospitals. Definitely will help develop the south end. Bismarck had two hospitals when their population was less then Grand Forks.

Do you think this means that Sanford is going to use that land they purchased to build a new hospital in Grand Forks?

Alot of the complaints along with my own were that Sather didnt know how to figure out a rotation. He was playing Suecker and Nero big minutes. Started Danielson at point guard. Reid Grant was playing alot of minutes. When he finally figured things out half way through the year, that some of us were calling for since the beginning of the year, we started seeing some improvements. I really liked the recruits he brought in last summer and I like the recruits he got this spring. I think he is figuring things out and am excited again about UND basketball!

I would say a very good. When I moved here in 2015 I seen very little development in this town. I had a hard time finding any homes to purchase and very little new construction. I went to more business close out sales then ribbon cuttings. Since he has been elected there has been a explosion of commercial development in the town. There is construction everywhere you look. I am excited for the future of Grand Forks. We have a business friendly mayor that loves the town and likes to get things done. I totally agree with how he handled the FuFeng disaster. He was looking at it as a big impact for the city, but some battles you just cant fight.

Thanks for the advice on House of Punjab. Took your recommendation there and got exactly what you said to get. I got the medium spice. I was going in with not alot of expectations as I have tried Indian food before and didn't care for it. The food was awesome !!! Medium spice was definitely not to spicy for me. Excellent taste . Looking forward to going back. Had to wait a bit to get in. Took awhile to get my food but it was worth it!.

Thanks missed that thread and caught up now !

Was hoping to find some discussion on this tonight. So I guess I'll start it. With western Illinois bolting from the summit what are the next moves ? Can we add another school this year ? Back to 9 teams. Northern Colorado would be nice. I hope not Augie

Texas A&M Commerce gave him a offer and he said it was his first D1 offer. I have never heard of the school

I seen one season she was hurt right away and thought maybe she had a medical year to use as well. Also didnt see her listed on last years roster for the team. She also red shirted her first year there. Would be nice to have her for at least a couple!

Do we know if she has 1 or 2 years left?

We definitely need a guy that can grab some offensive rebounds. Something we were lacking last year. Does he have any other D1 offers? Couldnt find it anywhere.

I think they have already signed someone and its still under wraps...

Guessing you know someone else has signed. Any hints ? Big man ? Former player ?

I thought there was 2 left also?

Id like to see Men's Volleyball. Definitely more fun to watch then bowling.. I believe its a sanctioned high school sport in Minnesota.

Totally agree! We could have had these kids now if we wanted them. Why offer so early on these two?

Live and learn I thought we were all starting to get on the same page. We all want the best for the team even if we have opinions on things that could be improved. I'm cautiously optimistic of the recruits we could get to turn it around.

My mistake thinking you were capable of a intelligent conversation. Won't happen again .

Can I ask where you are hearing this? I tried finding him on twitter and couldnt. Seems to be alot interest in him. Would fit another one of our needs!

News flash UND doesnt win any recruiting battles with any teams in the summit. That is the problem. I get if the kid doesnt want to come to a losing team at UND. BUT it would still be nice to see that UND was on the list of schools trying to recruit a North Dakota kid. Shows we have interest in our local talent. I guess we will be happy getting the Doppler's of ND.

You are right it has. But it is very frustrating as a fan of UND basketball that a North Dakota kid this close to UND either hasnt been contacted or doesnt even consider us. He has many mid major schools looking at him. UND not being one of them. Every division one school in the Dakota's is listed. I just want UND basketball to be relevant again.

Well it did say he wanted to play for a winning team.... I would think Sather would have been his first call. We wont win any recruiting battles if he doesnt. He still needs to show me that he can win some of those battles to be a good coach. We have had some freshman of the year because we got kids that didnt have any other offers and gave them a bunch of minutes. I want to see wins with kids that have other options.
