That's right - it's all or nothing.

Koening - a good example of what I'm talking about.

No way- I just get a kick out of everyone here. Look at how many good DI players that ND has produced and look at how many ND kids you have on the roster for 2008. I'm all for giving ND kids a chance but when you have trouble wining any DI games next year and the next you'll see my point.

I know it's hard for you to believe but both Mays and Allard would be good DII talent. They are not what you want as a core to build a DI program. They would be good walk on projects for DI schools because you never know they may work out real well. I think Coach Jones is finding out how hard it is to recruit to this area. I glad your happy with the recruits.

You can have them all.

Like the gophers?

Played 2007 NC - Florida and then Rutgers on the same weekend. When your in a conference you don't have as many non conference games - oh that's right you wouldn't know that.

You mean like what NDSU did to your FB team or the Sioux to your Hockey program??

What's the matter dlsiouxfan can't stand the facts so you make some of your own up?

I think yours was on the 19th - a week earlier.

Hey if you want to believe that he had offers (scholarships) from those schools fine. You need to able to tell the difference between "interest" and an offer.

I just hope that his off ice troubles were a coincidence and not signs of him having an problem. He's got a great future ahead of him and it'd be a shame to screw it up. But then what do us "slow people" know.

The word on the street is both Mays and Mertens would not have been offered a scholarship even if they were available. Both would have had to earn one. Comparing Mertens to Winkelman is like comparing Ford to a Lincoln. Mertens has never played against any DI competition and Wnkelman has played against some of the best in the nation and excelled. I'm happy your happy with the bb team but I think you'll find out what's it's all about when you start playing DI competition.

Lets see 600 vs 3000 plus - full rides vs walk ons -- season ticket sales for fb already 500 more than last year and will reach over 8000 by fall -- Yea we're doing okay. Trust you - That's funny!! -

Did I miss it or didn't the herald cover Mertens signing? The reason the Forum gave May's the coverage is he's from Fargo. If Mertens would have went to NDSU it would have been covered more by the Forum because it's NDSU. I can't help it that the sports media in gf sucks and coverage of UND is poor. Did you catch the KX4 special on our spring game?

Mertens is a better athlete but we'll see if he has the head and intangibles that Steve had. He looked good at the spring game.

Maybe they were scratching there heads over someone up North not getting any phone calls?

You can always give a scholarships to kids that we want to walk on. I hope it remains that way.

It was close.

You should have been at the Bison Spring Game (3000+) and you could have made a informed prediction.

Like I said if your happy with the coverage great - I would bet the majority of fb fans aren't.

That's good because that's what you're getting.

The lack of reporting doesn't trouble anyone?

Shhh - It's a secret.
