UND Fan

I was wondering the same thing - I have been following our FB recruiting for many, many years. I don't remember a year when we didn't land someone from WI!

He indicated that they trust their evaluations and they don't really care if a kid was offered by others. We offer kids that they feel will fit our program and contribute!

Agree -I asked the question and that is exactly the answer I was hoping to hear!!

Mid-year update on our three HS recruits: Player Team Record Ave FG% 3-PT FG% FT% Seales 12-3 18.6 54 52 79 McDermott 8-6 16.8 46 45 88 Collins 13-2 9.5 Some very good shooting %s for Seales and McDermott. We certainly need players who can hit the 3 and shoot FTs well. I wasn't able to get detailed stats on Collins. He obviously isn't scoring a great deal but he plays on a team with two studs, scoring 10/game isn't bad. I would guess that both McDermott and Collins will redshirt next year.

I hope (and assume) that we are pursuing Amani Hooker, Quinton's younger brother. A junior, he is a highly regarding safety prospect at Park Center.

I don't think we were ever in the running but offeree safety Bret Verstegen, Kimberly, WI has verballed to the Badgers.

Junker is a 5'11', 165 WR/CB - can't find much else about him!

I agree that we should be set at guard for the next few years (although I wish we had more size there) and we should be set at the 5 as well. However, we need to find a couple of bangers at the 4 or our rebounding challenges will continue. I don't think there are any on the current roster and we don't have scholarship $ available to go find any (unless someone doesn't return).

We are up 31-30 at halftime vs. ISU despite 10 first half turnovers. 15 of ISU's 31 points have come off of those TOs.

The ladies were very fortunate to win a close one tonight 57-54 over WSU. We were down by 8 at the half but were ahead by 9 with 0:38 left. Then a few of our 26 TOs allowed Weber to pull within 1 with four seconds left. Loyd had 4 points and 3 rebounds for the game. I never thought we would see those types of numbers from her! She had some early foul trouble but just didn't play well. Bottom line - we won, now on to ISU.

Probably don't need to worry about it as they are only averaging about 560 per game. It is doubtful their attendance would double if they hosted the tourney.

Why do you egg him on? Most of us have absolutely no interest in what he (or most SU fans who visit this site) has to say!!

Corrected!

We had a lot of kids (in addition to Mollberg, Bartels, Simmons, etc.) with serious injuries last fall. Do we know how they are doing? Ready for spring ball, etc.?

New offer: DT Ashton Elmore, 6'1", 290, 4.9, Sun Prairie (Vermillon CC), WI Has offers from Ball St, CMU, FAU, NM & UTEP

Is he leaving because his injury was career-ending?

Former UND BB player, John Burckhard, died this week. Condolences to his family. He played with the Jackson teams in the early 60's. We could use someone like him today - a big bruiser from Devils Lake that no one pushed around!

Were we ever recruiting them?

Welcome - we are glad your son has opted to continue his FB career at UND. We feel that, after a few tough years, the program is headed in the right direction. I am sure that Kevin will be a big contributor while enjoying his time in Grand Forks!

UND had apparently offered Richard King, a 6'5", 250 DE from Aurora, CO. He has verballed to CSU.

Nice comeback by the ladies in the 2nd half to win by 10 at UNC. They made 31 of 34 FT attempts - strong!!

Correct, he has only received an offer. It is not known if he will visit campus.

New offer: S Christian Angulo, 6'2", 180, Gibsonton (East Bay), FL Has offers from E KY and Toledo (visiting Toledo this weekend)

Visitors 1/17: Carter Blackwell – WR – Dickinson, ND (UND Commit) Mason Bennett – OLB – Winnipeg, MB (UND Commit) John Santiago – RB – St. Francis, MN (UND Commit) Tyus Carter – CB – Greenwood Village, CO (Cherry Creek HS) Tim Dulin – WR – Livonia, MI (Churchhill HS) , Keith Key – OLB – Columbus, OH (Bishop Hartley HS) ***************** There may be some added benefits to landing Key. His dad played for Ohio State and recently donated $1 million to OSU. He is the President and CEO of a real estate development company that focuses on Columbus and Pittsburgh, Key's home town. The son (6'4", 225) has an offer from IN St. Interestingly, Rivals lists him as a TE, 247 has him as a TE & DE while HUDL lists him as an WR & OLB.

Who are you referring to?
