    I meant -- He was a good last-minute fill-in given we thought we had Meindel. I never said he was remotely all-Big Sky or even close. I stand by that.

    He was a pretty good fill-in for Meindel in 2014.

    First verbals from 2015 and 2016 are not coming in this year: Grady and Seacrest.
  4. Tom Miller is reporting that UND's first verbals from 2015 and 2016 are not listed on the updated roster.Grady and Seacrest.
  5. Yeah, I saw that in the Herald.
  6. Per Izzo: Sorry for the long copy and paste

  8. Hold the presses! I got a late Friday e-mail from the UND Sports Information Office that says only qualified grammarians with the ability to string together at least a couple of sentences will be allowed unfettered access to UND fall camp football practices from now on, and will henceforth be subject to a series of new guidelines. The new guidelines, though, never mentioning Teeder11 by name, are clearly directed at me. And I am not the least bit amused by it. I have a hunch that that "the new guy" at Midco might have something to do with this. "Sir, Mr. Bigtime Boston, you're no Pat Sweeney, and The Stache would be appalled at this policy." Wanna-be media types will still be allowed unencumbered access to all other UND athletic programs and personnel, except men's hockey, in which they will have to submit a hand-written (in blood) request for access to God Almighty, but it first must clear a committee comprising Brad Schlossman and Virg Foss. I understand protecting the brand but c'mon UND, really? The guidelines stipulate that: 1. Wanna-be media types must view all fall camp practices from behind the iron gates of Memorial Stadium, or in the event of inclement weather, they must smash their nose up against the glass from outside the High Performance Center. 2. No tweets more than three words will be allowed, and all tweets must start with the word "leave" and end with the word "doubt." 3. All one-on-one interaction and interviews will be limited to Travis the equipment guy and Kauker. 4. Wanna-be media must provide coffee and doughnuts to UND football SID and all other "real" media who are present at all fall camp practices. On two-a-days, Dilly bars and sodas will be the afternoon treat du jour. 5. Any and all practice reports must first be cleared by the football SID, signed off by the overall SID, stamped with approval by the AD and reviewed by UND President Mark Kennedy before submission to the public can occur -- and only after a 10-day cooling off period. This provision will be null and void if wanna-be media guy neglects his coffee-and-doughnuts duties (Refer back to Guideline 4). That's it. I am told that this kind of treatment of wanna-be media types is "nothing out of the ordinary" and that "most schools are doing this." Well, as bad as all this sounds... I better get with the program or face the prospects of having my wanna-be media credential denied. And we wouldn't want that would we?

    True. It's depth that concerns me.
  10. Left the program. Don't know the story. But never really seemed like her heart was in BB. Just someone with a physical gift but whose heart was elsewhere.
  11. I think all three will be good. Dyer from the perimeter, Johnson strong inside, if healthy, and Roscoe really impressed me last year with her mid range touch and ability to go to the hoop when available -- a far cry better from her first two years. She could be really good this year if she continues that progression with her size and skill. Then, add in the supporting cast of Morton, Freije and Klabo.... plus getting Strand and Swatzke back, both of whom I thought were really good as frosh. They should be ok. And can't leave out the floor general in Szabla.... or ZABALA as the opposing announcers like to say! LOL!
  12. What I thought might be a nice read on one of our up-and-comers, Jill Morton, turned into a brutal read and an example of the ineptness of suburban Twin Cities media. Turns out Jill now plays for the "Lady Bison," according to the article below. http://current.mnsun.com/2016/07/28/edina-guard-adapted-to-new-role-at-und/ Oh and Jill might need to be schooled up on UND women's basketball history at bit, even if she was referring to the Division I era, she's still incorrect unless I dreamed that whole game against Texas A&M in the NCAAs in 2014: "Last season, we got into a postseason tournament for the first time in school history,” Morton said in a recent interview. Still I am excited for Jill and her sophomore season. She should be much improved and she was a great freshman!
  13. Verbal #5: Cameron McKinney, RB/WR, 5'9", 160, 4.3 40-time, Seattle, (Garfield) http://www.hudl.com/video/3/2589939/5721cafb9a90ec554091e112
  14. He looks sad. Why is he so glum? He still gets to wear the greatest nickname and logo in the history of mankind!

    New center. Transfer from Western New Mexico.
  16. Verbal #4: OT Connor Kruse, 6'6”, 295, Waconia, Minn.
  17. Just my take, and reading between the lines in this UND News story from a couple of years back, it sounds like TTD was an idea that came out of the UND Athletics Department but it was an entrepreneurial student crew of wanna-be videographers and documentarians (who happened to be rabid and passionate UND hockey fans) that took the idea and made it stick. They (Peter Bottini and crew) largely used their own time and equipment to make it happen, as well. Not sure what other compensation they got from the AD other than the opportunity to run the content on UND-controlled and supported platforms, and to get their names out there for job prospects down the road. http://und.edu/features/2014/02/through-these-doors.cfm Now, I am curious, if the AD could find an equally motivated crew of students with the same access to equipment and the same level of video talent and the same level of passion for football as Bottini's guys have/had for hockey, would they be able to develop a season-long program for football that would mimic what was done with TTD?
  18. Out of the mouths of babes. Hey, I grew up a Midget..... And learned to love it. So it's tough for me to be too hard any new nickname and logo.
  19. Reminds me of one, J. Santiago. Very nice speed and lines up in the slot sometimes. He'd have a chance to play against UW in his hometown if he'd sign with us.
  20. Verbal #3: S Leif Bungum, 6'2”, 190, Dodge Center, Minn. (3-Star)
  21. Is this like one of those Ford vs. Chevy or Coke vs. Pepsi things. You got some with brand allegiance to Nike and you have others with brand allegiance to Adidas, and a llot of that is based on the anecdotal experiences that each one of us had with those products.
  22. I think LA Tech has offered something.
