  1. Maybe the biggest mystery of this season. He came into his senior year as a proven RB and certainly not #3. If we want to continue to move this program forward, this should be a lesson learned for our OC and RB coaches.
  2. You have no idea what Ralph wanted. I doubt you realize how stupid your comment is.
  3. Riffle will have every opportunity to win the job. Apparently made one from 47 yds when he was a freshman.
  4. That is typically what matters when coaches decide who starts. However, I would argue where it really matters is on the field on Saturdays.
  5. Better facilities, more resources.
  6. Whose asses are you wanting to sue and how did they breach the contract?
  7. An opportunity to attend West Point is difficult to pass up. It is one of the best institutions of higher education in the world. At the time he committed, Army was nationally ranked. Jake is a very good athlete with good upside. It will be interesting to see where they will use him. Great get. It would be interesting to see if his brother would join him here for a year or two. He has lots of FBS interest so doubtful.
  8. I will take a guess. One guys Viagra and it’s cheaper?
  9. The protocols and an athletes ability to successfully navigate them determine whether or not the athlete is cleared to play. They may not know til Friday.
  10. Ten belonged in the FCS playoffs. No FCS team had beaten them. I might have said that of Harvard and Yale, yet Yale beat Youngstown. MVFC and Big Sky are the strongest FCS conferences. there are other good teams around the country. Tarlton State is going to be a challenge. They have some talented players and some speed that might give us trouble. We will need to play mistake free and have another dominating performance by our defense to win. We need to get our injured guys healed up. Getting Z back is huge. If Farmer is ready to go that would be huge. It would be great to have Kaminski ready but I’m not optimistic. I think Simon will be fine if our Oline protects him and we get our running game going.
  11. Dehydration doesn’t normally cause vomiting but it is associated with heat related injuries starting with heat exhaustion. This is clearly a concussion. Jerry had 2 blows to the head in a relatively short period of time. He appeared disoriented when they first helped him up. He vomited shortly thereafter. Regardless of his claim that he was OK, he wasn’t. All anyone had to do was look at him sitting on the bench post injury. UND medical staff have a concussion protocol that hopefully includes pre-participation testing and a post concussion protocol. We used IMPACT protocol. All athletes in our contact sports had to complete pre-participation IMPACT testing, which a computer test that takes 20-30min. Post concussion protocol/activity doesn’t start until the athlete is symptom free. (No Headaches, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, depression, vision issues etc.). They take a post concussion computer test and compare those results with pre-participation testing results. They must be able to perform at pre-participation level. Once they can do the that, the trainers supervise their gradual return to non-contact physical activity. Once they can do that they return to non-contact team practice activities. Only then are the allowed to return to practice without restrictions. They must have one asymptomatic full practice without restriction before cleared to play. That is the protocol we used at our high school. Never once were we pressured by a coach to clear an athlete to play that hadn’t cleared our protocol. (We had a couple of Dads tell us that was all “BS cuz they returned to play without that crap”. UND will have an approved protocol (there are a number of other protocols). I would advise Schmidt to game plan with the idea that Romfo and Sulik will be the QBs. Obviously the health of the athlete are always the top priority.
  12. I’m not sure that is accurate. Most NFL players don’t make that much.
  13. Sather did nice work convincing him to stay.
  14. It obvious you don’t. We do know what you can do (repeatedly). I would have thought you would have realized that a long time ago this nonsense shows a lack of FB knowledge and a lack of class. I would wonder if he stole your girlfriend but I can’t believe you’ve ever had one.
  15. Early on Romfo called a great audible on pass and changed running play where he physically repositioned the blocker. We can listen to what his coaches and teammates say or we can listen to the handful of pissants, who if they even ever played the game (doubtful), never learned to appreciate their teammates especially the backups. He got to his reads quickly and got rid of the ball quickly. He completed 3 of 6 with 2 drops. He hasn’t played meaningful minutes at QB in over a year, but didn’t get rattled. I hope Kaminski recovers quickly, and can play next week, but it’s good to know we have an experienced QB who his teammates and coaches have confidence in. We moved the ball effectively at a crucial juncture in the game. I don’t care who the QB is as long as they play well and do their part to lead this team to another win.
  16. If you request, I believe they will pay for your counseling.
  17. You don’t throw it to guys who are covered.
  18. Whiff block by 76 and missed block by RB. We will see how Simon can do despite not getting reps all year. 2 dropped passes so far.
  19. screen pass and they must have forgotten the TE is an eligible receiver.
  20. Play calling is OC’s call, HC can over rule, and QB audibles if he disagrees.
  21. Good idea ( as long as someone else organizes the flight. I wouldn’t want to end up in “alavama”).
  22. They have a QB with a 65% completion rate. They have a huge oline ( like SD State) and 9 RB’s averaging 5 or more yds/carry. They are undefeated in FCS games. They typically have good skill players in their league. This won’t be easy. We will need to play our best (complete) game of the year.
  23. Agree, but if we are going to make a playoff run, we have to tackle better, no missed assignments and play penalty free.
  24. That’s nonsense. UND is responsible for the Alerus and FB revenues not a generous donor. I’ve stated my opinion and will respond to this on a separate thread but let’s not digress from UND FB.
  25. He “short-armed” it.
