UND Fan

We take over on downs on our 34.

Now we lost a fumble...

We recovered a fumbled punt... someone is hurt!

I don't think the broadcaster's sidekick has a mike - you can hear him talking once in a while but it is mostly a mumble...

Sack on third down, WC will punt!

Interception back to the WC 7, not sure who got it. Poor broadcasting! Touchdown Beatty!!!!

I got WC's right away. Not too impressive - someone please post when the UND broadcast is back up. Thanks!

Anyone else just lose the game on the internet?

I would assume that Groeschl simply has had a better fall camp than Grossman. Anyone know any more about this?

Anyone know the story behind Bruggeman leaving UND? I will likely now be easier to replace Maria if she has another lousy year!

At this point, it appears we will have about two full rides available. Of course, there may be other departures that will open up a scholarship or two. The guard position appears to be in very good shape - good talent and good depth! We need to find both depth and talent at the 4 and 5 positions. Obviously, at this point, they are looking at a lot of kids. Upper midwest HS possibilities include the Benter kid out of Divide County. I believe he is 6'8" with good potential. There is another 6'8" kid from Rapid City. They are keeping a close eye on a 6'10" soph or junior from Williston but I think his dad played FB at SU so they may have an inside track on him - if he is good! Area Local p

What a great letter - extremely well-written with the appropriate message! I live in Florida and will be forwarding this to the local press. Obviously, with Florida State right down the road, this is also a very hot topic down here!

Please do us a favor and go talk your "smack" on the Bison website!

Does anyone know what types on injuries these guys have?

The coaches feel that, with a lot of hard work, Lehnertz may be contributor in a couple of years.

I was unable to find the depth chart on the Herald site on the internet. Does anyone know if it is there?

Any of our GF posters know if everyone showed up at camp who was expected? Any word on walk-ons or transfers that we weren't aware of?

From what I hear, the conversations with the coaches (Buning has been meeting with each of them over the last 2-3 weeks) have gone quite well from the coaches' point of view. There is no question that getting the budget in line has to be the first priority - you can't even consider DI if we can't pay the bills in DII!

Althouh I am one who dislikes all the smack that appears on this site (both by Bison and Sioux fans), I must admit this is quite unique! You must have a lot of time on your hands!

When does fall camp open?

No one uses the Ralph's weight room other than the hockey team!

We all agree that the Alerus Center can be a pretty intimidating place for visiting teams. It is a good venue for watching a game and tailgating has turned into a big deal and a lot of fun. We draw fairly well but there are usually a few thousand empty seats. If we could get another 1,500-2,000 or more fans at our games, it would assist in many ways: -- The atmosphere would be much more crazy and more difficult for the competition. -- More people mean higher revenue for the Athletic Department (as well as the Alerus and the GF economy). We all know that this is important as the cost of scholarships, travel, etc. continues to increase every year. Whether we eventually move up to DIAA or not, we need to increase revenues. -- A larger crowd is much more influential for recruits (of any sport) to see when they visit UND on a recruiting trip. I live in Florida and only get up to a game every other year or so. My question to those who live in or near GF and attend most games: What could be done to increase attendance at home football games? Let's not get into a debate about the quality of the visiting teams - we have talked about that enough! It is obvious that a schedule full of high quality teams would assist greatly! Let's not complain or whine about certain minor things that might be a pet peeve. Let's simply talk about what UND could do to get more people to games. That would include UND students, local area residents, alumni, the base, local grade and high school kids, etc. Anyone have any constructive ideas?
