I have heard that too......but, not from anyone terribly close to the program. I do wonder if Jensen has not had some undisclosed nagging injury because he has really been a different QB in the last part of the season.
My opinion is he has always locked onto his first reciever and got away with it. This year it is just biting him. FU also lacks a WR that can create any seperation and spread the field and that has hurt as well.
-
If Mannassau got the commitment last night there should be 2 unknown if we have got all of them from early in the year.
-
One for sure. Two with Manassau tweeting last night another was close. And possibly a few from during the season.
-
Coach Mannausau tweeted a half hour ago that another recruiting chest bump was near......Stay tuned. Sounds like a big one. I'd like to hear names of this one and the last.
-
I'm curious who this last commit was. With Kotelnicki tweeting yesterday that the "dominoes are starting to fall" and now Mannausau tweeting today that "the day just got a lot better", must have been someone fairly high up on the board today.
-
Agreed with the points above. You don't pass on a player who appears to have the talent that Robertson does because you already have talent on the team. Depth and competition amongst position groups will only make the team better.
-
That kid can flat out fly. He would make a nice compliment to Golloday and Jackson after the upcoming season.
-
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.
-
def dont plan on going to many home games now.
optimism is totally down
Of course you don't.

Any heard more about Jordan Hein, QB, Perham? Heard very likely to UND. Has similar skill set as Marcus Hendrickson, also from Perham.
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.

Another chest bump to schlesner
At least the offensive guys are doing work
We need defense tho
Where is bubba at
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.

Looking at the verbals so far, this class looks pretty nice.
K/P Mitch Meindel (WI) has a good ol' Howitzer for a leg.
FB Dustin Iverson (ND) good athletic FB and a local kid.
OL Dan Bell (WI) good size and potential.
DL Brandon Miller (WI) very nice size for a DT, looked like a beast on his film.
RB Jake Disterhaupt (MN) He's the next Travis Beck.
If we can get another couple beast on the DL and some mean LBs along with the other needs (DB, OL, speed) this class is already shaping up quite nicely.
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.
-
For some reason this guy doesn't seem to be a big get. Maybe he's just a good under the radar guy. I'm sure nobody in Fargo was doing backflips when they landed Beck.
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

And yes, NDSU so far in DI is out-recruiting UND in every common sport with the exception of maybe VB, possibly womens BB. That could change in the future, but I expect that it wont change in the near future in FB and Men's BB, the two sports that count the most.
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.
-
Another note - Offeree DE Lorenzo Melvin was on campus last weekend, and is heading to SoDak St this weekend. He would be a good pickup.

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.
-
That might be the score at the end of the 1st quarter. I'm thinking a 56-45 type game.
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.

The championship should be a very good one to watch. Two deserving teams in the final. I go back and forth when I try and predict the winner. Sam Houston's qb appears to throw the ball better this year than lastbut still is far from reliable and their D is very athletic but got owned by a great offense last week. FU's defense is one of the best around but Woffrd and GSU showed the last couple weeks that an offense can move the ball vs. them. FU's offense isn't great but makes plays when they have too. Winner will be by less than 10 but can't predict the winner. Two weeks to pepare helps FU more than Sam Houston.
