  1. And for the last too many years UND would have had a very up hill battle. It’s easier to knock the kid and one of the most unbiased bloggers than admit you may lose out on a talented kid. Set the stage. I’d love to hear Kolpack or Izzo be as hard on FU coaches as Craig and Kelly are. The last time they tried it they got locked out of practice.
  2. But they are all gone. I think yesterday showed what university systems are becoming. A 9-0 agreement quickly changed to a 5-4 vote due to pushback. Maybe we have been lucky but change makes me nervous.
  3. Good luck with getting anyone to understand change that doesn’t benefit them. I just hope we get someone in that has the balls to make change and not cave during the first signal of resistance.
  4. The MVFC has been on two year rotations for odd team scheduling since USD was added. I imagine ISU Sycamores and UNI will be added in 2022. Still a nice schedule in 2021 with USD and SDSU road games. Should be able to see the team play 6 conference games that year.

    It could be a number of factors, maybe he had no interest changing to defense or wasn’t a good fit. Either way best of luck.

    What do they get if they win??

    Spring Ball

    So games with no tackling and quick whistles will be more entertaining than UNDs set up from last year?

    Spring Ball

    I agree the event could use some tailgating or something but having been to many spring games at various colleges the format used last year was much more entertaining than a regular spring game. If you think a potential recruit is going to go to another college and be entertained by their spring game longer than 20 minutes i think your mistaken. If they set the day up properly for the recruits, this event actually showcases the nicest indoor practice facility in the area and gives a better atmosphere than a dome that is not even a quarter full.
  9. Does Englestad’s daughter have any ties to CU?

    Spring Ball

    And our roster depth hasn’t allowed us to be able to risk any injuries trying to run a full game. Honestly the last few years come spring game our injury situation hasn’t been much better. I think our current setup for game would work. There are things about it that are more entertaining than any spring game. I enjoyed the break for one on one pass rush last year. The venue works. Just need some fan event before.
  11. They have made some money playing hockey and merchandising. If they want girls to have an opportunity invest that and start their own team in Grand Forks. Maybe they play at the Ralph or elsewhere in Grand Forks but with the loud applause it should be wildly supported by paying fans right??
  12. We could use a starting 4/5. Unlikely but just sayin.
  13. That article was from straight under Entz’s desk by Kolpack. Knee pads still fit after winter.
  14. They also won some close games that could have gone either way. UND also has freshman that are going to be very good and improve next year. I never left either UND/NDSU game thinking FU is better than UND but did feel NDSU played their style of basketball better than UND.
  15. His system slows a game down and gives them a chance to be in everyone. Go back and read, I never said it was great but he does a very good job recruiting the personnel to fit it. I think UND is more athletic in a lot of spots but what’s our system?
  16. Where did I say he was great? My point is what is Jones’ system? He knows what he wants to be and recruits to a system. Also, at our level peaking at tournament time is what’s important so his peices fit at exactly the right time.
  17. What I have admired about Richman (Bison fans can correct me) is he gets his players to play his system. It’s boring but they play it well. He has recruited the peices to fit it nicely and they do a pretty good job staying in their sets Vinnie will make them go next year. With our current group we will match up with them ok. Brown isn’t a great two to defend their physical guards. I always think we Just can’t play them in a game in the 60s. Also, Hopefully we can find a 3 to guard Ward in the post. They will be the favorite next year but I don’t think they are head and shoulders above the rest. The league will be tight next year.
  18. Opportunity for exposure no doubt.
  19. I’d say Walseth being let go today made his seat very hot and our AD needs to decide quickly if he is the correct person to be running this program.
  20. Thanks for posting Danno. It was good to see our AD at the time not throw an athlete under the bus. Also, no where did I see mention of those performance enhancers supplied by a member of the coaching staff.
