As a scout player this year he looked very good. I guess we'll have to wait until next year. Comparing credentials from a player in Texas on a bad HS team to someone in another state is apples and oranges.
You apparently didn't watch us play MN this year. We also have a red shirt freshman from Texas that will play next year. We don't need any runningbacks, but usually pick up one or two a recruiting class.
The only reason UND got those players is both Montana schools had a low # of scholarships last year. I'd be willing to bet that the Montana schools will get over 90% of the kids they want in Montana. But hell UND must see something they like in that state.
Absolutely right in that NDSU had a contract with UMD for a game before Bubba was hired. Once hired he didn't want to play the game and Gene who's a good friend of the UMD AD let them out of the contract. No conspiracy just a classy move on Gene's part that's all.
Stenjhem said on WDAY that if a settlement is made with the tribe it could be revolved at anytime by the tribe and then UND would have to stop using "Fighting Sioux" immediately. Seems like the tribes have all the power and can hold UND under their thumbs. Time to change and take the power back.
I was out west hunting last week and every radio station I listened to was talking at one point about the Bison/Gopher game. Lots of talk all over the state before the game. Compare that with having the National Champions playing UND in hockey the week before. Outside of GF not much state wide interest.
Once again your wrong dave - playing in big games have plenty of meaning. It's something that UND will want to do is schedule as many big games as possible during the transition.
