Educate yourself and ask Dom Izzo what he thinks about the conference. I’ll have to relisten to his interview with Mason but he only had great things to say about the conference.

Pac 12 only has 2 teams in the top 25 but I dont think anyone is saying that is a bad conference. I’ve only watched 2 UJ games on BEK this year and dont think they were conference games but UJ is the real deal I can tell you that. I honestly think Walters would have been the best player on UND this year.

No love for Hong on the bench?

Its a huge help when you have a guy named Grant Nelson as the main focus of a “rebuild”. Have to wait and see what they are like when he leaves and they enter a rebuild. This season for them is more like a retooling around him and Boden

He should be the top priority, its been mentioned multiple times how getting a transfer to UND is tough because of the location. Here we have a local kid looking to move up to D1 and probably will stay semi close to home. Not sure if he has any ties to UND or not. Another plus is it will keep him from going to NDSU.

You can make that argument with every advanced statistic. It matters about scheme and who the other 4 guys on the court are as well and unfortunately there is no way to track every single thing that goes into the game into one nice number. Advanced statistics are great to look at but can't be the only thing you look at.

They can announce their intentions to leave at any time, but the portal doesn't open till April

Will be really telling if they give up here in the second half or come out playing hard and can end the season playing the right way

Anything is possible!!!

The UND social team has been killing it. This angle of the BJ lob is sweet!

Thanks? I'm going to assume this is a compliment and not an insult

So we aren't all routing for UND to win in the conference tournament? I'm confused following this?

Agreed actually really like what he had to say here. Also Eaglestaff showing some great playmaking today!

Yeah I wonder if it has anything to do with offering Doppler at the same time. Maybe just wanted to offer them the same day since they are teammates. Hopefully when he gets on campus he'll realize what he needs to do to get minutes and can start to develop into a guy who can get minutes junior and senior year.

Interesting I guess I don't know how the process works for adding a new team to the conference. But I don't think any of this would happen if St Thomas doesn't leave

Whys that? Just dont think the Summit wants 5 Dakota schools?

I haven’t watch much of Kraft but think he will be a much better D1 player which is why he had a handful of D1 offers. What D1 offers did Erickson have? Did he have any others or was it some NSIC offers?

I think it will, I remember a couple years ago it was there goal to be D1 by 2030. I know there hockey team will be playing D1 beginning next season. I may be wrong but I think the main reason the Summit didn’t accept them is because they were bringing on St Thomas and didn’t want to bring both teams at once

UND gets the W. Denver has shoot 4-24 from three against UND this season while UND is 23-61 from three. Live and die by the 3 ball tonight

Once they build the new arena they’ll be gone, which opens the door back open for Augustana to get into the Summit

That doesn’t make sense to me why a team moving up needs to wait so long to make the tournament. Now in D2 when teams move down that makes sense but this just seems to unfairly hurt those schools.

He just doesn’t impress me much. Often he doesn’t want to play down low and is pretty lazy. But last night it looks like he finally remembered he was a post and not a guard and scored down low

UND is +9500 to win the Summit Tournament. Sounds like free money and I got my bets placed

Definitely plays hard and crashes the board hard. Not sure but I would imagine he is a good locker room guys as well and always helps having that experience on the roster.

I agree!! Even though Treysen is a 2 i feel like having him play the point this year will be huge for his development and playmaker in years to come. I also love the idea of BJ at the 3 and just putting out a huge starting lineup then having BJ play the 4 one the subs start to come in
