  1. I don't like their fans coming here either, but c'mon guys... They are head and shoulders above any other team in the Division. 5 in a row is evidence of that and there's no real strong reason to think it won't continue next year. I wrote that their streak ends when UND beats them in the playoffs. It sure seems to me that Bubba ball is the only way to beat them and if we don't no one else will. That said, tip our hats, don't accuse them of wrong doing as it sounds like sour grapes, and let's talk about UND football not their football.

    Player Departures

    So everything in this thread is pure BS? Except for the coach leaving part.
  3. But they are playing a 6-6 UConn team!

    And different coach but likely same style of play.

    You suggest that IF someone is leaving it may be the BEST PLAYER on the team and we are the ones with "fragile egos"?
  6. Fair point but I think you understand what I mean. 5 in a row would be nice. Heck playoffs would be nice at this stage.
  7. This...so true. I dislike SU and even more than that their fans, but I readily say they are the standard for what UND WANTS to be. They are for the whole freaking country (FCS)
  8. But your thoughts on Seekamp are correct; thus the talent level was enhanced by her. I thought most of our players, with a few exceptions, looked slower in transition than theirs too.
  9. But they went in focusing on stopping the 3 from this team that shoots a ton. Focused on that and it worked as UND had more 3 attempts in first half than they did. However, they did a nice job of adjusting to that and taking it to the hole more. That's the reason for the good start and it didn't help that even at home our guys just don't seem to have their legs until the 2nd half. I don't get that.
  10. I assume "subbed" in that sentence should be "snubbed." NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE here seems to think UND wins the title IF they got in. Just woulda been nice to get in.

    I heard (name of really good player) has (left team, broke significant bone)/or saw Star Wars last night and has decided to go to the Dark Side. He'll be enrolling at SU tomorrow. Its not so much poor taste as it is 8th grade girls locker room drama.

    I just saw him as I'm watching the women's BB game. He "looked" like he was staying, but you might be right. You know this team is "snake bit" so it's gotta be him or the best player.
  13. Sorry about the coffee spit. I hope it wasn't that good.
  14. I've been telling anyone who will listen- The only team in the country that can stop SU's streak is right here in Grand Forks. NEXT YEAR!!!!!!
  15. I think this is going to become a real trend-go to a FCS school, establish yourself and then have the big boys come get you. This is especially true when more money is involved and I do see the day that the BIG 25 or so will leave the NCAA and start their own super conference AND pay whatever they want for players.

    Good points. I just wonder how you sell it to a kid who played quite a bit this year. Does he see it as a demotion; will he take to the idea and position well. I really think he's a unique talent and needs to be on the field in some capacity a lot.

    If they need him at DB, I don't see why he'd need the redshirt, I think he's a phenomenal athlete, and IIRC, he played both sides of the ball in HS.
  18. IIRC, his recruiting was interesting at least the official announcements were. One day he's offered by UND, two days later he accepts, a couple days after he's offered by SDSU and within a week he accepts. I assume there's a discussion pre offer as to a "What if SDSU makes an offer?" Right? All these recruiters must know who the competition is, right?
  19. Well the Gophers get to play in a bowl game this year and they were what 5-7 so maybe if the boys down south move up, they can make one too.

    So his shirt was never pulled, meaning he still can redshirt??
  21. You guys recall Camy's dad was on here last spring when he committed. Seemed like a nice enough guy who was really excited about his son being here. No hard feelings, I hope.
  22. Thanks for the input all. Was just wondering if that was an issue and you made good points especially in naming others who hadn't been offered.
  23. Loved his tape too. Just curious-saw his tweet a couple days ago re: his first DI offer and now he commits. No one at DI offered him and he didn't feel like waiting I guess, but unless the staff overwhelmed him and he just knew he wanted to play here, is there a concern that no other school wanted to make an offer?

    I think I've said this before, but Smith's HUDL video was THE ONE I recall most from last year. He did everything, O, D and special teams. Great athlete. He could be special I think.

    I started a "Next year" thread where some of this is already being discussed. Just wondering if it can be merged into that? How? Thought it doesn't matter much to me.
