Can't find it now, but it appeared to be the same Tweets but from UND Recruiting and may not have been each of the players' own.

I appreciate what you're saying, but it appeared to me, reading the Twitter post, that both said the exact same thing. As in, this was a UND fill in the blank, kind of thing. Others have written lengthy thank yous and included the academic angle, but this felt like a cut and paste type of announcement. Am I wrong?

Did we offer Weisenberger? He's staying home.

10-4 since 93. Need another streak like that again over the next 15 years.

"High level teams like K State" is questionable. I understand they are the better of the 2 Kansas teams, but "high level" seems a bit much. Yes they are in a big conference, but I don't see the shine on that team. The rest is true. But we need to get some guys who slip through the cracks and do what we did in the 90's.

I've seen this "complicated offense" notion a lot here. What's complicated about turning around, handing the ball to a RB and hoping he breaks one? It seems the QB did not have the option to audible out of a play and once heard Z got scolded for doing that. So that takes away another potential complication.

I concede I was critical of Coach Hak too...you know , when he was UND"s coach. Let it go!

I don't disagree, but if that happens, it would be as a Head Coach. I just don't think an assistant at SU is coming here unless it's to be HC.

My only concern was whether some refs may see some of these pancakes as holding.

3. Helgren. Has been injured since his arrival. Was a great recruit and IF.....if he can stay/get healthy he would give UNDs line a staple to work off of. I like Tobin as well but helgren has the body along with the talent. I think Jenkins has the body for OL. Hoping he makes a big push this year.

Zeke and Austin Gordon on D Johannesson on O

Offered Kyle Downs, OL. He has recently visited, SU, UM and SDSU, but doesn't look like they offered him.

It's not good news, no doubt, but I'm in my 50's and have "gone" outside in a GF alley in the last few years. Not proud, but it happens.

It was the Night AFTER the game. Friday night, early Saturday morning.

Did you walk around in an attempt to get a good view-I did, and it was not really possible. The DLine was in the backfield for every QB to contend with on every play. The are fast. For a bit, I chatted with President Kennedy. He was looking to chat with people it seems.

Maybe, but I thought I checked the roster twice because I was so struck by how short, squat he was Agree with the rest of your thoughts, too.

I thought Johannseson got dinged too. It happened on that long pass play. He kept going to his helmet. Then he took a run up the middle, came to the sideline and went to the trainer. Hopefully nothing too serious. This was my first time at HPS, and I was looking for some upper level vantage point as field view didn't do it for me. Saw lots of kids using the track for races. Nice crowd though.

My thoughts, fwiw, Saw Ott pre game with all the DL's and he looked so much smaller. Roster says 230 but I don't know. Then in the scrimmage-WOW! Great twitch speed off the edge. In the 1 on 1, he went inside shoulder on OL raised his right arm for leverage and beat him to QB. He was in the backfield more than Santiago tonight. Among the DL's, I was impressed with Seguin's thickness. Austin Gordon on the edge is going to make plays. And he's not weak as he pushed an OL in the 1 on 1's right to the QB. OL is the trouble spot. Rooney looks so short, and some were just slow off the pass rush, but the guy I tried to watch (and really didn't as the ground level view didn't allow it) is Jenkins. If you built an OL in a lab this is what he would look like. Apparently bad snaps are still a part of the punt game. Sherva looks a LITTLE like a smaller version of Santiago. He had a run in which he exploded past guys. This is why Gordon is on D. The D was MUCH better than the O but like UNDBIZ said, the entire first series was ALL pass plays. BUT... if the size in the middle stops the run, the DB's can handle the pass game at least against THIS offense. We joke about screens, but there were at least 4 that I counted and the one I liked most was the FAKE jet sweep one way, screen pass the other. Mikey Griebel may be the smallest football player I've seen, but damn is he quick! He and McKinney are small but scary fast. IF the QB can find them. Johannesson had a nice play down the sideline on a good pass from (I can't remember) BUT on that play the QB would have been leveled. Did anyone else know we have guys named Bryce Crouch and ... l love this name- Pedro Schmidt on the roster? Still lots of work to do, but eager for August.

Good analysis. Today, I'm most interested in seeing Boltmann. Lots of good buzz from the 360 guys.

I'm thinking about going. Never went to one before.

So they get a freshman to come in 2019.

When I look at the team to the south of us, I notice it often has ND boys blocking for the southern state boys. Nothing like hard working, ND linemen to lead your O to a TD and a title.

I am so hopeful (sorry UND-FB Fan) that the LB core will be so much improved, the Safetys will not need to be that active in the tackle game except v WR's and TE's etc.

But you chastise the rest of us because we refuse to denigrate literally everything this team and staff are doing. That's not fandom, that's just being bitchy.

I can tell you're relatively new as you acknowledge you've "got no support for my opinion." This board is made up of people who typically post opinions for which they have no support. Including me! But it is a good question. IF the depth looks good (as I think it does now...just my opinion) then he could go there and CB is still covered well.
