💯 Guarantee money is a big deal at UND. USD also
-
They've won 1 football title in the last 4 years. They're not invincible anymore
-
The waiver was denied. He's done
-
With the length they've added on the perimeter, will the traps be as necessary?
-
I wish it was the St Thomas kid
-
How do you know they aren't?
-
Make your donation. Mr. Bonzer will work with you on a financing plan. Until then, appreciate the work the coaches are doing to try and "hang banners." You aren't in the North Central Conference anymore
-
Because we're hanging banners in all our other sports?
-
And how many stayed in the Summit league beyond those titles? You are asking freshman to win titles and UND trying to recruit kids who give them more years than 1. Also, shooters/athletes are available in much higher quantities the post players like Kyle. When your NIL money is limited you shop for players that you can find in bulk. You don't have to love how they're doing it but it is what is in college sports today. No one affiliated with UND mens basketball should apologize for what they've accomplished in the Summit the last 6 years with the financial resources they live with.

In 6 years they've been in the conference semifinals at least 3 times and the conference championship twice. UND isn't the Duke of the Summit league but I'd bet there are 5 schools in the conference that haven't sniffed that success. If championships is your baseline for success, write a large.check to the 701 group and designate the money to the mens basketball program. In 2026, money talks and #&$^÷) walks

Played for a conference championship with limited size and talent in the lane last year. St. Thomas has a great year with 6'7 being their biggest player. Style of play determines how you recruit. Adding below average talent because they are tall is a recipe for losing. Define what you want to be and go play. Coaches have a plan and it was pretty darn good in the Summit last year

He won't get many minutes. He has no defined position

Lateral move.

Good sized guard from an excellent high school program. Love the work done by coaching staff to keep adding freshman
-
You can never have enough Eli King type players
-
They didn't? They played for a national championship; Michigan spent as much or more that U Conn on bball NIL
-
Minnesota at $4.5 million is roughly. $4.2 million ahead of UND. In the NCAA there are "have's (UConn), "have nots" (Minnesota), "never have's" (UND)
-
Northridge paid him, no one else.is paying him.anymore. Call, $400,000. U of M, $400,000. Northridge, maybe $100,000 but that's all that was being offered by anyone.
-
Safe to say your college career is headed the wrong way when the moves have been UND, Cal, Minnesota, and now Cal St. Northridge.

No offense meant here but, the 6'7 girl couldn't play DI basketball at the Summit league level. She couldn't run well enough and he skills offensively were incredibly limited. I know the head coach is in your cross hairs, and he may very well be in over his head, but not playing the 6'7 girl was the right move. Not finding DI talent in the portal last spring is on him, big time.
-
St. Thomas is working towards playing in the Big East and football will be dumped completely. Their goal is being direct competition with the U of M in all sports other than football and the Big East move is next on their to-do list.
-
💯 agree that the old days were a blast for college sports, I miss it also. That being said, it's time to get over having our feelings hurt by kids getting 6 figure deals from other schools.and choosing to leave. I've said it before but, 99% of us would take the money and go play somewhere else. Our coaching staff here has gotten better each year figuring this out and playing for a conference title this year was cool. It'll get figured out.

Wanted to see her interviewed when Mal got the job. She would have been a great candidate a year ago too
-
Maybe but the money today is nuts and when you are getting zero, $50,000 sounds pretty damn good. If the Gopher basketball program has $6 million in NIL money, $400,000 is less than 1/12th of that amount. Good money for B.J. but guessing others got more by quite a bit

University of Jamestown?
