  1. This is truly a great "get" - congrats to Coach Jones and his staff! This was posted under "18-19 Recruiting". Just so there is no confusion, it should be "17-18".
  2. I believe Hunt is a 6'3" MB - she played with a good JR team over the summer. We also had a commitment from OH Brynn Nieukirk, 6'2”, Washington (Community), IL. I don't if she is still expected to sign.
  3. You will need to ask the folks at SU that question. My comments were about annual budgets.
  4. SU's Team Makers' (4,100+ members) annual contribution to SU Athletics exceeded $5M this year (an increase of over $1M more than the previous year). For the first time, this contribution now covers ALL of SU's M & F scholarship costs. UND's Champion's Club (2,600+ members) produced somewhere north of $3M this year. While I don't know the numbers but would guess that the $ received from the REA is offset by the ongoing sellout of all SU FB games and much higher men's BB attendance. I also don't know the specifics but I am sure the revenue generated from media and advertising is significantly higher at SU. Bottom line - SU has much more $ available on an annual basis for salaries, facilities, recruiting, etc. I sincerely hope that everyone who truly cares about UND athletics is writing as large of a check as they can afford to assist the program. If you are doing so - thanks! If you aren't, please don't continually question why UND doesn't offer higher salaries, bring in more name competition in FB & BB, etc. It all takes $. On a related note, I have stated to UND leadership that I believe a 20% increase in contributions will happen immediately with a new energetic and personable AD.
  5. Anyone attend yesterday's exhibition? Your thoughts? Does anyone know why one of the Dailey twins didn't play?
  6. After losing the first two sets rather easily, the ladies have come back to win the next two, 25-21 & 29-27. Up 2-1 in the 5th right now.
  7. Let's help John's punt return earn HERO Sports FCS Play of the Week honor! https://herosports.com/fcs/vote-fcs-football-play-of-the-week-9-byby
  8. Nope - he will be a Jr.
  9. I appreciate your insight - it looks like we are getting a very talented young man! Who else did he have FB offers from?
  10. Studs has been nursing a bad knee all week - hope he is able to go!
  11. Another SG offer: Brandon Newman, 6'3", 175, Valparaiso (Valparaiso), IN Has offers from Toledo & Fort Wayne

    I think it will at game time.
  13. Ray Purpur, Associate AD at Stanford, was a popular choice for AD when Faison was hired and he is still my favorite. I talked with him recently and I think he would consider it but it may be tough to convince his wife to leave CA for ND. His kids are 17 and 15 - maybe after they graduate from HS.
  14. We have offered a 6'3" SG, Jiovanni Miles, out of Detroit.
