I'm sure he'll be back with a different alias posting from Fargo.

FU has a solid team. After watching both games I would say they are the favorites in the Summit league. They are much more balanced than BU. Our effort today wasn't good. When this team gets down, we seem to fold and take poor shots. We also gave up way to many offensive rebounds today. We need to get healthy and we need to start playing better on the road. Frustrating game today.

Of course you don't.

He's been recruited very hard by UNI as well. It would be nice to get him as an athlete and see where he fits in.

The coaches have a certain area they recruit. They do not recruit by position so it could have been a defensive recruit. Either way, Kotelnicki seemed pretty happy about the commitment.

According to Kotelinicki a lot of our top recruits were on campus this week and he was expecting a "chest bump" by the time the weekend was over. I'm hoping for more than one.

Its funny you bring up Dustin Iverson. I have family out west and one of them officiates and when I asked him about Iverson he had nothing but good things to say about him. Thinks he's going to be a very good ball player. He's a great athlete and a hard working kid from what I have heard. Plus he's really excited to be coming to UND. I didn't know much about him before but am excited to have him aboard.

You could've said the same thing about Schobert last year. You never know about recruits. The kid put up huge numbers and has great size and speed. I've seen some boards of people were talking about him as a candidate for Mr. Football in MN as a Jr. (it only goes to Sr.'s). I've never seen him play so I have no comment further than that. His highlight tape is impressive but every highlight tape should be impressive. I'll say welcome to UND Jake.

I've read a few articles of him getting a lot of interest from a few Big10 schools but also have seen an article from this summer that we were his only offer. Not sure on where he had offers too but he appears to be a real good talent.

As long as FU's offense doesn't give Wofford any points the game won't be close. One thing FU is very good at is protecting the football. Games FU has struggled in this year, they have turned the ball over. I think they win this one going away.

Watching the Broncos game last night and heaing the announcers talk about how Chris Kuper is the key to protecting Peyton Manning. I would love to see a couple OL like Chris sign in this class who want to come get coached by a former NFL Olineman- Greg Lotysz

You mean to tell me your school has out recruited a school that has spent the last five years in transition, not post season elgible, without a conference, in a constant battle with the NCAA over a nickname. Do you want a pat on the back for that? You also might want to take a look at the schedules of these common sports the last couple seasons cause UND has beat FU in every sport that FU has the balls to play in. All that "out recruiting" sure hasn't translated in head to head wins in these common sports. But don't let facts get in the way. #buttfootball #screamyellow

I believe that is him. It was a rivals article that I somehow got access too. Talked about how his recruiting is really picking up and he's gotten calls from Kansas, Minnesota and Illinois but no offers from them yet. From the sounds of it he really likes our coaching staff and hopefully (if this is the weekend he is visiting) really likes the opportunities he will have here. He may get a Big10 offer before its all said and done though.

Solid write up. This is a game we will miss Huff a lot. He was all over Braun last year and took him completely out of his game. He was too athletic for him. Not having him will hurt as you mentioned, Braun has been playing lights out the last couple games and as he goes, FU goes. This will be a tough game without Huff and a sub 100% Taylor.

Hopefully playing in the BigSky pays off with him. I'd like to see a nice OL and DL class this year. I also read an article online (which I can't find anymore) about a 3 star safety out of Illinois who is making a visit this weekend. Another position where playing time is wide open for a young kid going into next season.

If either of the freshmen can play I'm all for it. I've heard enough good things about both that I am pretty excited. However, after the season Hanson had, UND could realistically come into the conversation of a FBS looking to transfer. If the phone rings, the coaches at least have to answer. Maybe a transfer qb could bring a DB buddy with him.

Thats what I first thought but I think Georgia Southern will try and control the clock with their offense. They aren't going to get stopped too many times so as long as they don't break any big ones, I think its low scoring.

He could play right away if he transfers to an FCS school. FBS-->FCS= no year long wait.

How do you figure?

Are you referring to the Summit league or United States Hockey League? You have to be specific, both use the same branding strategy.

Women got another win last night against Air Force 76-42. Nice job ladies.

I agree with some of the guys above. FU's defense and playing in the dome will be too much for Wofford to overcome. I think Wofford's D gives FU's offense a hard time for awhile but runs out of gas after being on the field all game. I'll say 24-7. Old Dominion beat Georgia Southern. Two below average defenses vs. some good offenses. Again I'll give the edge to homefield. 28-17 Old Dominion.

I think EWU wins by 14+. Last weekend was a wakeup call for them after overlooking an oppenent they figured they would beat easily. MSU is in for a bigger challenge. That is easily the game of the week. I thought last year that if the Sam Houston game vs. Montana would have been in Montana, it would have been FU vs. Montana in the championship. I don't feel any different here as I feel home field will be the difference maker. I'll take MSU by 7.

I wonder what the FU Bison Badger fan that regularly posts about the Bison the Badgers on this board thinks of this. Seems like he only shows up when FU does well or there is UND vs. FU talk.

You know, a great idea to boost the image of the WAC would be to rename those schools. Phoenix University, Edinburg University, Orem University, and Chicago St. go well with University of Seattle. Its a great concept developed by the Northern Baseball League, United States Hockey League and the Summit league. I'm almost certain they would let them borrow it.
