He’s got all the physical tools to play in the nba. Just needs to fine tune a few things. Needs to become much more of a consistent shooter and needs another 15 pounds. He’ll go to the combine, if he performs well he’ll keep his name in the draft.

I guess you’d have to go to Bisonville and see if their season was acceptable. I’m just happy ORU won

I’m not sure what him being preseason all summit has to do with him stepping into a new role. I can assure you it is not easy going from 3rd or 4th option to the go to guy. As talented as Nelson is, he had an up and down start to the season. I can assure you it’s hard to go from role playing bench player to the go to guard like Skunberg had to. I can assure you it’s hard to go from getting limited minutes as a freshman to playing extended minutes as a big man as Morgan did. I’m not even sure what you’re trying to argue. If you think making those adjustments is easy as a player you must have been a heck of a college player yourself

Not sure what you’re trying to say?

It’s the off-season. Relax. Plenty of time till next October

I don’t necessarily follow NAIA basketball unless I know someone on a team. I happen to have a good relationship with Mason Walters. The GPAC is considered by everyone one of the top NAIA conferences and it’s not even debatable. @ZDosch had a lazy take and @UND1983 is just being arrogant

Just form an educated take. Its not that hard

What fact did you present? The GPAC is one of five conferences with 5 teams in the NAIA national tournament. Jamestown has tried to schedule UND the last couple of years. UND would rather play Presentation and Waldorf. Those are facts. If you have any questions PM me. Have a good night

Whatever makes you feel better. The GPAC is not an awful NAIA conference and D1 teams will not schedule them. I know for a fact Jamestown has been looking the last couple of years for D1 games. More specifically they have tried to schedule UND and have been turned down.

One of five conferences that got 5 teams into the national tournament. So on a "down" year still just as good as any other conference at the NAIA level. No idea where @ZDosch is getting awful from.

Why do you think UND and NDSU schedule Presentation and Waldorf and not Jamestown, Northwestern, Morningside, etc?

They got 5 teams into the national tournament. May not have the best team in the country but top to bottom could be best conference in NAIA

GPAC is a solid NAIA conference. The North Star which Mayville plays in is AWFUL. Shawnee State which beat Jamestown a couple of years ago in the elite 8 was a very good team. They would’ve more than held their own in the Summit League this year

The thing is this is the first year Nelson has been asked to be the man. That’s a huge jump from 3rd or 4th option to being the go to guy. (I’ve said Nelson is a potential NBA guy since I first saw him his senior year in high school). Skunberg was a role playing guy off the bench. That’s a huge jump to being the #2 option and being the go to guard. Morgan had talent but was limited in minutes last year due to the players in front of him. This wasn’t 3 players that have proven to be all conference level players. Either Richman has done a hell of a coaching job or the summit league is awful this year. Could be a combination of both

Maybe it was 80% of their minutes from last year. They returned one starter. Lost 4 players to other D1 schools in the portal and graduated another that was 1st team all conference. I hope UND can get to a point where we lose that much in an offseason and can still contend to go to the big dance

I can tell you Hong does not miss in warmups. Dude is money

NDSU is going to be playing in the summit league championship after losing something ridiculous like 80% of their scoring from last year. Quick rebuild

Wasn’t BJ offered by St Thomas out of high school? Would be a bad look to lose another player to an in conference team. How many other in conference transfers have there been the last few years? Only thing that comes to mind is Harden-Hayes committing to Kansas City before their coach got fired

Brady played hard. Brady struggled guarding the ball. Brady excelled in team defense. Excellent weak side defender. Brooks has much more upside in being an on ball defender. I do not think it’s controversial to say that.

With the way people are talking, are we just assuming Omot is gone at this point?

No if you play hard the results do not matter. In all seriousness I think Brooks has massive upside and can be an elite on ball guy. I’m probably higher on him than most on here but I would be very disappointed if he was not back next year

I guess you can look at the data however you want. At the end of the day can you guard the man in front of you? I think Brooks can and will be able to do it at a high level

@HoopsFan03 has the ability to get the synergy data, but 3/4 of the way through the season Brady’s defensive stats were horrible. He couldn’t guard anyone on ball. Great help side defender and someone willing to step in a put a body on someone. Brooks has a much higher ceiling. Bigger, stronger, more athletic. Much more scoring potential with the ball in his hands. Finds a way to impact the game without the ball in his hands. Now something happened this year with his shot, he regressed in terms of his mechanics. Would like to see a complete overhaul this summer but I don’t think that will happen

I know nothing but there was a player this weekend that looked very disinterested in doing any of the little things. Just from watching on tv it looked like his mind was somewhere else. Will be interesting to see if it was just a couple of bad games or if his mind was truly somewhere else

I know absolutely nothing but Sather was pretty emotional when asked about coaching this group next year. He said with how college basketball is he doesn’t know if he’ll get a chance to coach the same group.
