UND-1

Why? Nothing egregious happened to his team other than they couldn't score in the last 2 minutes. Calls were appropriate by refs. It was a great college basketball game. UND played well other than last few possessions when they couldn't score.

This. The winning coach in a great game like this usually pays his compliments to the losing coach, telling him how good they were, etc. Jones didn't even give him the chance. You could tell by the Griz coache's reaction that he usually doesn't have the opposing coach blow by him like that.

Wentz looks sharp. Shows what I know.

Questioning the move to start Wentz. If they play Stick a fair amount then it won't matter.

Being he suddenly didn't play anymore after semester break, tells me there is a academic/eligibility issue. Could be wrong, we'll see soon.

So I ask, what the hell is point of throwing out random names if you have absolutely no information stating it's true? Much like UND Roughrider did about Taylor, also. What does anybody gain from that?

So if he reports back for school, you will report back here that you were completely speculating and wrong?

I too am waiting to hear more about this. Tell us more....

They obviously knew he was hurt going into NDSU game. Hobbled all game and then still played against VCSU. Head scratcher, I agree.

My first Fighting Hawks purchase:

I guess it isn't.

I see Sears in Fargo has gotten into the Fighting Hawks merchandise game. Interesting.

From everything I read and heard, the plan was to take 5 offensive lineman in this class. They are at 3. Hence, the two more OL.

Thanks for the info.

Our comments on Nielson have nothing to do with WIU or the playoffs. He will win games at USD, no doubt. But the way he operates, according to all sources I have (which are pretty good), is not the best.

Right now, UND's main threat to their commits is Northern Iowa. Their season just ended and they will start recruiting hard here. Let's just say they are notorious for being "late recruiters". Plenty of UND commits will get contacted by UNI coming up here. South Dakota is another one now that Nielson is there and they have like 5 commits to their entire class. They will probably offer 3/4 of commits.

(sigh) what could have been.

I stand corrected, I knew somebody may have offered late like that but couldn't remember.

Figured I would point out a thing or two about "who else offered" before it starts to rear its ugly head again. 2015 First Team All Big Sky: John Santiago - Zero FCS offers Sean Meehan - Zero One FCS offer Will Ratelle - Zero FCS offers 2015 Second Team All Big Sky: Brandon Anderson - Zero FCS offers Colton Boas - Zero FCS offers Zach Adler - Zero FCS offers Mitch Meindel - Zero FCS offers 2015 Third Team All Big Sky: Brandon Dranka - Zero FCS offers (Meehan may have been offered late (?) but was not a high target by anybody) Let's just trust the staff and hope they can develop this year's signees both on and off the field, much like they have done with the above players.

I happen to think you don't know what your talking about. But to each their own. See you in Sept.

Make sure to have Bob negotiate the staff's car contract with the local dealership. He knows the language.

Doesn't sound like a real great guy. They can have him.

Will miss him. Liked Dan doing games.

He was a good player who chose another school after visiting there. Won't be the last player we lose after he commits early. GL to Jake.
