UND Fan

I couldn't agree more! It will likely be long 2-3 years!!

I am not a big Faison fan at all but he was totally between a rock and a hard place. He wanted to fire Jones then (after the 15-16 season) but couldn't because of the budget crunch (he should have fired him a couple of years earlier). He didn't want to extend him to a multi-year extension because he knew Jones wasn't a great coach. He was forced to do so after last year because we had such a great year (thanks to the play of Q and the disciplined influence he had on the other players, especially Gino). I truly don't believe we have lost any real talented players due to Jones not having a long term contract.

I was serious when I asked this question. I played a lot of BB many years ago but I have never coached. It looks to me like the continuous weave out front and/or quick passes around the perimeter can only set up a guy for an open 3. With us having such a hard time hitting a 3 (or most any other shot), I don't know why they continue to run this offense. I do realize that we are limited in what we can do because we have no size.

Can someone more knowledgeable than me explain the purpose/objective of the offense that we continue to run?

Wiki will be updated this evening with all of today's activity.

Petersen will attend Iowa St.

In the final 12, I understand that there are 3 current DI ADs with most of the rest being DI Associate ADs (Josh Morton being one of them) and some successful DII ADs . All 12 should have completed video interviews with the committee by early this week. The three recommended by the committee should be on campus by mid-January. Kennedy will then make the decision.

Another OL JC offer: OG Mitchell Kay, 6'4", 300, Long Beach (Long Beach CC), CA Unfortunately, this is another kid whose first offer is from us! Scary!

Payton has confirmed he will attend SIU.

Jones would have been let go had it not been for the budget challenges. It would have been a political nightmare for the administration to spend $100K+ in buy-out $ when we were cutting sports and other programs within the university.

Three new JC offers including two kids from the Netherlands: CB Chavildo van Ommeron, 6'2", 200, Amsterdam (West Hills CC, CA), NETH LB Tyron Vrede, 6', 215, Amsterdam (Garden City CC), NETH S Hayden Galvin, 6'2", 190, Westlake Village (Moorpark College), CA

Exactly - we look just like the majority of our teams over the last 10 years. Little discipline - with no size and no outside shooting, it may be a very ugly season!

Does anyone know if Isaak is a PWO or scholarship recruit?

A little more about the above guys plus one more: LB Adrian Jackson, 6', 215, Minneapolis (Central Lakes CC), MN

Good comments on Schoenfelder..... Bronko Nagurski‏ @MnHSFBRecruitin Dec 4 Looks like UND is getting one with a ton of potential in Goodhue Ryan @RyanSchoenfeld1 6'5 220. Schoenfelder was one of the area's top players on both sides of the ball. As a tight end, he caught 36 passes for 828 yards and seven touchdowns, helping the Wildcats advance to the Class A state tournament. As a defensive end, he had nine sacks, 11 tackles for loss and 80 tackles. He also forced two fumbles and recovered two fumbles. Schoenfelder, who will play at Division I North Dakota next year, was selected to the state All-Star game. "Ryan is a complete player," Goodhue coach Tony Poncelet said. "He is smart, strong and athletic. He put together three impressive varsity seasons for a great career."

We both have offers out to at least six prospects but it doesn't appear we lost any to them.

She was a very good Class B player. Does anyone know if she has played intramural/women's league BB the last few years after VB season ended?

Proud of the ladies - they played well against a very talented UM team!

We played pretty well in that first set!

McShane will attend WIU.

Thanks for your homework on these, Darell - interesting. All look pretty good except men's BB.

The article said "some interest from Tennessee & CSU". Do you know that they offered her?

Wiki has been updated with this as well as a bunch of other offers, star ratings, etc. Two offerees have committed elsewhere: TE Blake Fehrmann, 6'5”, 225, 4.8, Brookfield (Central), WI Verbal to IL St LB Mike Timm, 6'1, 215, Wales (Kettle Moraine), MN Verbal to SDSU Also, I have the below athlete listed as a safety prospect but most schools are recruiting him as a QB. It could be that we looking at him as a QB as well. Owen Goldsberry, 6'1”, 190, Arlington Heights (Hersey), IL Has offers from SDSU, USD, SIU, WIU, IN St & IL St

Not surprisingly, Veargis has reversed his commitment to GA St. With all his big-time offers, it is unlikely we can land him.

Another offer: FS Caden White, 6'3", 185, Sun Prairie (Sun Prairie), WI
